Comments Thread For: Bob Arum: Terence Crawford Will Be a Big Vegas Draw

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Newly crowned super lightweight champion Terence "Bud" Crawford deeply impressed his promoter Bob Arum with his 6th round knockout of Thomas Dulorme Saturday night in an HBO televised fight. Crawford took a few rounds to get Dulorme's timing down and then exploded with three knockdowns in the 6th round. The last of which ended the fight.

"He's great. He really is super smart. He has the talent and the finishing ability. He's the whole package," said a beaming Arum.

Don't know about that. He'd sell out in Omaha any day of the week though.

Hopefully

I am buying his stock. I love the way he reacts when he hurts his opponent.

Crawford vs Thurman 2-3 years from now for WW/JRMW king

Best 140 lbs already. I have little doubt he spanks Garcia, Matthysee, and Lamont

I 2nd this Bob. Its only a matter of time tho before Bob starts short changing him and he inevitably leaves TR. Bob will be Bob. Id like to see Crawford in with the better guys at 140beforegoing for the crown, TCin the mix definately nakes it interesting for the time being, sucks he cant fight Haymons guys. Imsold on Crawford

Vegas sucks, keep him in Omaha, fighting in front of actual fans and not gamblers

Sorry he is a amazing fighter but he isn't going to be a huge draw in Las Vegas !! Adrien Broner has a better chance then him this is

I think you are underestimating Bob Arum. Broners brashness/social media got him his popularity but itll never be anywhere near the level Arum was able to take guys like De La Hoya, Mayweather, or Pacquiao.

Beat khan and Manny and I think he will be.

I'll mos def be buying tix if/when Bud fights in LV.....kid has the potential to be something special

[tiliheels]

bob is going to lose him unless he gets some dirt on him and can blackmail him into staying like think he's done pac.

this kid shouldnt have to step a foot outside of omaha

if i was bob i'd invest in an outdoor staduim in that area that holds 40-50k...i have no doubt in my mind that they wont support it...towns like that and surrounding area are looking to flood those type of events
