Comments Thread For: Terence Crawford, Chris Eubank Jr. Linked to Summer Showdown

Same reason that Crawford is chasing lightweights, super lightweights, jr. middleweights, middleweights and super middleweights.

The only reason Eubank did this is because of Crawford ducking Boots to chase a super middleweight. That's the ONLY reason Eubank even cares.

BS, Eubanks calls out EVERYONE from Canelo to Golovkin to raise his profile, and you fell for it....pure and simple. You did exactly what Eubank wanted you to do, and that makes you an official Eubank promoter. As for your hatred of Crawford, I'm sorry that Spence lost. It was a close fight and Spence got robbed, Crawford had metal in his gloves and when he got knocked down the count was too long. Happy now, feel better? You guys really need to let that go, seriously.

This would be really weird. No disrespect to Eubank Jr, but he's nowhere near the level of Crawford, norm is he a big name.

Yes but Crawford has never fought at MW and only AJ and Fury are bigger names in the UK. Most of the guys Crawford could fight don't have the same profile as Eubank. There is some sense to it both financially, profile-wise and if Crawford is serious about fighting Canelo.

I’d rather see Crawford fight Tszyu or Boots, but this fight is OK and it makes even more sense if it opens the door for Crawford-Canelo in, say, November. If Bud beats a top middleweight/super middleweight like Eubank Jr,, Canelo has less of an excuse to say he wouldn’t get credit for beating Bud.

Chris Eubank never called out Boots. And neither did Crawford.

Look, it's fine that you're okay watching Crawford DUCK Boots Ennis to try and get a super middleweight (Canelo) and Eubank is jumping on the gravy train of circus mismatches.

Just admit that's what you're doing. Because it is. At this point you might as well lobby for Jake Paul to call Crawford out after Tyson carries him to a draw.

I'm not feeling this at all! Tszyu, Ortiz Jr., or Jermell Charlo, makes sense, but not Eubank Jr.???

Tsyzu has the gold but also has a fight. Charlo has been stripped of everything and may never return. Not sure what Ortiz offers bar potentially a competitive fight but not sure that's enough

I'd prefer if Crawford went up and fought Janibek, but I don't think TC likes that risk:reward proposition.

Don't think Crawford fears anyone but Janibek is with Top Rank which is probably why it's less likely

Crawford earned a gimme. But how a domestic level can is able to swindle punters off the stolen valor of daddy’s name is a uniquely British syndrome.

Janibek's highest payday was $300,000. Come up with the remaining $19,700,000 and you get your wish.
