Comments Thread For: Crawford Explains That He Became Smarter About Business, Says it Created Issues With Top Rank

[paulf]

There was 30 million on the table when he was fighting the likes of Jeff Horn and Amir Khan?

Please. Top Rank lost money on him.

It wasn't a good relationship for either party. Crawford was growing on HBO, but for whatever reason he didn't fit into the ESPN Top Rank ecosystem.

He's got a second act after the Spence win. Let's see what he can do with it.

Wow, now boxingscene is publishing articles claiming that Crawford is aligned with Al Haymon and PBC. This is a straight up lie y’all. Terence Crawford had a fight with a rematch clause with a PBC fighter. Thats it thats all. Don’t listen to this hogwash. What they meant to say is that boxingscene just like Fighthype is aligned with Al Haymon and PBC. Get it right…

Crawford said he’s working with Al Haymon, what’s the issue? He’ll be with PBC until he retires, it’s not a big deal.

Canelo has been hyped up as the best fighter of this generation and he is.

Wait…Is this a real comment or a parody?

Crawford said he’s working with Al Haymon, what’s the issue? He’ll be with PBC until he retires, it’s not a big deal.

He has said on numerous occasions when asked that he just has a rematch clause with Spence. And that he doesn’t know if he will continue to work with Haymon after the deal is done. Thats not being aligned with Al Haymon and PBC. At least not yet. Maybe he will because there aren’t a lot of other choices out there for him. And at this point if he does end up “aligning” himself with PBC and Haymon it most likely will be until the end of his career. But that’s not saying a lot. Its not an issue. I just happen to have a natural opposition to hegemony’s. And with the years of delay, excuses and media smear campaigns that have been associated with this fight simply because Crawford WAS NOT aligned with Al Haymon and PBC I don’t want to hear anything about PBC taking any credit for anything about Terence “Other side of the street” Crawford; especially not from a website that participated in the smear campaign like boxingscene.com did. FOH!

arum actually overpaid him. arum said he lost money on crawford and its one of the few things that i believe arum on. anyone can go look up the PPV numbers and the guarantees for his fights and do some simple math. Even if they low balled him on one fight they were probably taking losses on other fights, there is no way every one of his fights was profitable with what they were paying him.

Well his stock certainly went up after Spence fight ,mofo now talking about winner of canelo-charlo. Bud now wants to get paid!

[Finito2K]

“We’ll take a $5 million guarantee not knowing that there’s $30 million that we missed. I used to be that guy"

Stop. Bud never generated enough demand for a fight for a $30 million dollar oversight.

Shut up you ungrateful potato head b!tch. You fought nobody and never sued them until your 35. Now just blah blah.

Even though most of his fights weren’t even on PPV. Make it make sense… A lot of people have decided to make a special case to decide to believe Bob Arum instead of believing common sense when it comes to Terence Crawford. What else is new?

And Tyson Fury doesn’t fight at all and retires every other month. White boy Mexican just tried to go up in weight and got his ass whooped all around the ring too. White boy old man lies about money he couldn’t possibly have lost and white boy comment board warrior takes it and runs with it. Typical.
