Bud vs. Tim Tszyu for the WBO MW title.

So what if pbc worked with top rank before. rarely have they ever. Also did u not forget that Arum himself was warring with crawford his own fighter. He said that haymon or any promoter would be an idiot to pay crawford what he wants with all of the money he was losing the company. Arum tore crawford a new one and Crawford's still chose to resign with arum. Only at the end did he leave. Stop lying for crawford. He made horrible buisness decisions and only after everyone had beaten each other to a pulp thats when crawford came around collecting belts. Crawford is my pfp 1 but this revisionist of history has gotten out of control. It wasn't some big conspiracy against crawford. It wasn't that all of showtime hated crawford. The world wasn't against crawford. No. He just made bad decisions and was in a war with his own promoter in arum. Waited in till all of the great welterweight beat up each other and started collecting belts after all was said and done.

Bob was overpaying him, and PBC wanted to underpay him. Look at what they were trying to offer Crawford during the first round of negotiations with Spence. This was after he became a free agent. Haymon didn't want this fight. Spence had to push it to get it made. Crawford beats any of Haymon's welterweights at anytime. Al knew he could make more money by pitting his guys against themselves.

GOOD GOD! Enough with the excuses! Crawford beat Errol convincingly, it happened. It's boxing, it happens. Either Crawford will retire like Floyd or eventually fight and lose just like Spence, Lenard, Tyson, Ali and everyone else. Step back, take a break and regain your dam composure.

Don't know why they still take this Jermell guy seriously. He'll disappear after the Canelo fight, win or lose. Why people still bother to include him in any conversation is beyond me.

Who cares he is old coming off an injury, will be coming off a loss & drained.

How about Bud fights someone who isn't at the tale end of their career or/& crippled for once.

And you're a Devin Haney fan? Haney just fought Loma, who was CLEARLY passed his prime and Haney was lucky to get the win. I guess beating Kambosos twice was better than Bud beating Spence though right. GTFOH or stop with the double standard.

Bob wasn't overpaying him. Bob was breaking even and wasn't generating the money he wanted from crawford. And Bob absolutely took a dump on crawfords demands and generating ability. Arum even said he was boring and doesn't know how to speak. but yet crawford stayed for another 5 or more years lol crawford could have easily been out of that situation as soon as he started fighting with arum but chose to stay while the best welterweights in their prime were beating on each other. Crawford decided to leave once the dust settled that will forever be in crawfords history, regardless of how u want to spin it. Again. Crawford was in a war with his own promoter. Even arum (which i never agreed with) said crawford doesn't deserve any fighter from pbc based on what he is asking for. Why stay with arum for so many years when he is taking a dump on your career? Arum wasn't even willing to do a joint pbc top rank fight for crawford because he felt crawford was just gonna bankrupt the company. So why stay? These are facts not your conspiracy theories......in my book that puts a mark on his 147 pound legacy. Everyone beats each other up and you come around collecting belts after fighters having hip replacements fractured eyes. if you can't see what I am saying then u must be too much of a fan. or from ohamaha or some other none sense. Too emotionally invested.

Something about Crawford brings out pure misery in some people. I like Errol, nice guy, damn good fighter. Like Crawford, nice guy, the best fighter alive right now IMO, a generational talent.

I cannot put my finger on why Bud is disliked. Maybe he isn't brash enough, isn't "slick" enough in his style....maybe because he seems very non ******, or something????

No matter what he does, who he beats, certain people just can't stand him and it would never be good enougb. And strangely it seems like mainly certain black dudes who can't stand him. Why???
I don't give a damn about skin color, but there is like this underlying thing that Bud isn't "black enough" or something?

That is all I can contribute it to. Dude is a beast, huge power, KO's everyone, destroyed Spence. Humble guy, nice guy. What is not too like? In comparison to say one of the Charlo brothers, who both come off arrogant, ****** and incredibly annoying, Bud comes off like a smart guy with incredible talent.

Mayweather should come out of retirement and fight Crawford

Great revisionist history there. Crawford had 1 more fight I believe after Arum said he wasnt making any money on him. He didnt resign and stay another 5 years. Arum promoted him horribly. He was supposed to get the pacquiao fight and didnt. That would have helped his career along tremendously. If your gonna tell the story at least get it right.

Jermell @154, immediately after fighting Canelo @168, proves what?
