What?! You just quoted my comment where I exactly said f u c k both of them. What on earth could you possibly be talking about? I don’t care about or “give props” to any promotional company. They have nothing to do with my love of the sport of boxing. I never said anything about you. Let alone about you being wrong about anything. Its not for Crawford to go sign with PBC. Its for PBC and any other prospective company that might be interested to approach him with a deal if they are interested in signing him.Last edited by Bronx2245; 08-24-2023, 05:32 AM.

That's called tampering, and you could be sued for that! Crawford signed an extension with Top Rank, while Thurman, DSG, Porter, and Spence were all at PBC, then complains when he wasn't getting props for the fights he had @ 147! HE DIDN'T EVEN GET TO FIGHT PACQUIAO! So when he says, "I should've been here a long time ago," I agree, he should've signed with PBC a long time ago too!

He's right.
Him & Spence would've been household names 30-40 years ago when fighters actually fought more than once or twice a year & you didn't have promotional wars and fighters talking that "wrong side of the street" nonsense.
He's lost millions of dollars, regardless of his personality .
Marvin Hagler didn't have a huge personality & made the equivalent of 25 million fighting Leonard.
Tommy Hearns didn't have a huge personality & made millions
Very few fighters are Muhammad Ali or Tyson Fury.
Bud knocks people TF out, he was a blackballed, and he should be pissed about it at 36 years old.

No one watches boxing rooting for people who aren't even in the ring. You want to have something that you can complain about when it comes to Crawford. I get it. But this who he should've signed with silliness is about the shortest and thinnest straw that you can grasp at. Have fun...
Crawford: If I Didn't Call [Spence], We Wasn't In Contact With One Another, Fight Wouldn’t Have Happened
June 16, 2023
There were many more details in his contract that Crawford and his team analyzed and adjusted before he agreed to sign it and they announced that they’ll fight for Crawford’s championship and Spence’s three titles.
“I learned a lot in these last months of, you know, doing and handling my own career and talking with Al Haymon and talking with my handlers, my lawyers and just learning the game,” Crawford said. “It’s so much that goes into making a mega-fight like this that nobody understands. They think that two fighters just agree and bam, here you have it. But there’s a lotta missed detail that goes into making a mega-fight that a lotta people don’t know and don’t understand. And then they fault the fighters for not taking the fight because things wasn’t right in the contract.”

Originally posted by Bronx2245 View PostMy first post was that Bud should've been with PBC a long time ago. You're FIRST response that was "F u c k PBC!" All I'm asking is WHY? Why did what I say offend you? Why can't I give praise to the organization that's giving me the fights I wanna see? Why I can't I be happy that Crawford is getting the shine he deserves, and it happens to be on PBC? Why does this bother you? Anyway, Crawford is happy now, and I'm happy for him, and like I said, it should've happened a long time ago!

And, you obviously learned the exact wrong lessons from those quotes you put in your comment. Because you are still trying to fault the fighter. This whole “he should’ve signed with PBC” nonsense was only put forward as an excuse as to why Spence would not entertain the notion of taking a fight with him for years. Now that the fight has happened people like you are still clinging to that completely irrelevant nonsense narrative but now you’re trying to turn it into something else.
Do you believe his happiness has anything to do with PBC? He just made history and a ton of money in the ring participating in the sport. He has already been a world champion and an undisputed world champion previously. Why would he even be thinking about PBC? And why would he not have already been happy with what he had already achieved?
PBC has nothing to do with it. If he would’ve lost the fight still would’ve happened on a PBC show. He wouldn’t have gotten much shine if we would’ve taken an L. Terence Crawford won, not PBC. PBC should have tried to sign Terence Crawford a long time ago if you want to deal in shoulda coulda woulda’s.
