Comments Thread For: Eddie Hearn considers Devin Haney's next fight crucial and doesn't believe Terence Crawford will box again

[Yacontya]

If Eddie Hearn believes that Crawford may not fight again, I have a bridge to sell him. I mean all Crawford is interested in as he and Shakur have said is, “the bag.”
Trust me, Crawford is no Barry Sanders. Eddie, can you possibly be that naive to fall for that nonsense?

shakir Stevenson is over rated and scared to fight. Any of the the big hitter will fack him up with ease.

How old are you pls? Cos I can tell comprehension is clearly not your strong suite. And telling someone to put the pipe down when you are the one typing expletive laden content unprovoked suggest you may have some deep rooted issues, even worse than drugs. So pls get help.This is a boxing forum where people can express their opinions respectfully which is what I did. You don't agree, state your own perspective. Grown ups agree to disagree without throwing tantrums and no amount of cursing can change what I stated. It is my opinion.

we all need help in one way or another.

Canelo vs Crawford is a huge fight. I’m tired of hearing why the fight shouldn’t happen, just make it happen so we can move on to the next big fight.

Canelo vs Crawford is a ridiculous fight. A three card monte suckers ploy. Crawford go fight Boots, STFU and retire.

Put the pipe away, please.. Spence a marquee name, soft touch with Madrimov.. what’s a couple times for undisputed?? You’re all Fcked up.. obviously educated through Tr**p University- Bud’s resume is 100% strong vs Spence’s resume-

spence is not marquee, never was.
crawford demonstrated how easy it would be once spence jumped up. I had Sean porter beating spence although could be argued.
until the eye damage in the Brook fight, he was behind, got lucky there and agreed to a rematch but when kell chased him all over the world, he knew…he didn’t want any of that. The wanker chose chit fights, not marquee.

[Phase III]

If Crawford were to retire, I don't know what to make of his resume. I know he's undisputed a couple of times and I know he passes the eye ball test and many view him as an all time great (not me) but to only have one marquee name, Spence, on your resume, even with the demolition job he did on him is just not enough. He missed a lot of great fights at 147 'cos supposedly nobody wanted to fight him but 154 guys are itching to get at him. There are a lot of great fights at 154 to help his resume but whether he wants those tough fights is a different story. Even Madrimov that was suppose to be a soft touch ended up being a difficult fight.

Amen! If Crawford could talk, maybe he could sucker us all like he’s doing to Turki. Problem is. as you said, his best fight was against a very damaged Spence. I said Spence was a very easy fight for Crawford. You can look that up here in my post before the fight. Unfortunately, Crawford can’t give away water to someone dying of thirst if you set up an air conditioned stand for him in the desert. Fight Boots and STFU already.

Hearn always had it in for Bud, but in my mind, now is the time to give Eddy what he wants. Sign with Hearn for some Saudi lucre and a few more soft touches in riyahd. Shakur is getting the velvet spoon treatment.

Eddie is doing all he can to sign Crawford so he can play with Turki’s money, get some UK pizza drivers to fight Crawford while filling his pockets with Turki’s money. Same playbook he used on Len Blavatnik of DAZN, with Canelo. Eddie is a lap dog for Turki.

Crawford does not look like a retired fighter. Yesterday, I saw a clip of him sparring Shakur in preparation for Shakur's next fight. Retired fighters do not spar world champions in the gym. They book trips around the world with wife and kids. You see photos of them on the beach, on the boat, smiling and out of shape - not sweating in the gym.

I cannot believe how many people are hating on Crawford and rubbishing his resume. I agree he is not the most exciting personality ever and does not know how to promote his fights or sell out arenas but inside of the ring he is operating at a master level. Many people consider him boring but he is probably two fights away from achieving what nobody has ever achieved in the history of this sport and we have posters here saying that he missed a lot of great fights or that he wasted his talent. Unbelievable!! What are the fights that he has missed - and please do not mention Boots Ennis or Vergil Ortiz as they do not belong in this conversation ( about great, accomplished fighters).

Wrong, most retired fighters wind up having to sell the ***elry and dumb sheet they spent with their money on EBay because they don’t have a pot to piss in.

Evander, broke
Pacquiao, almost broke. Didn’t pay his taxes.
RJJ, spent money trying to create his Rap label
Tommy Hearns, broke
Rid**** Bowe, broke
Mike Tyson, went bankrupt with $23M in debt, now hustling and making paid appearances to stay afloat.

Crawford sells a lot of tickets in Omaha. I don't know how big the arena is there, but it looks like a good sized venue. He should keep fighting there.

Arum was papering the house in Omaha. Lost mucho money promoting Crawford.

Why in the heck would Crawford fight Haney

He isn't saying to fight Haney, he used TC situation in the same light as Haney, referring to them both wanting big money and wont take good money for a high-risk guy.

[champion4ever]

Crawford was moving to 154 anyhow before his chance encounter with Turki Alalshikh.

So I don’t know what Eddie Hearn is talking about. Canelo was never on Bud’s radar. He wanted to fight Fundora.

Until “Your Excellency” started floating this idea to fight Alvarez for the most amount of money.
