Comments Thread For: Arum Eyes Terence Crawford-Mauricio Herrera on 10/24

I doubt it happens. The myth that TR & GBP now "work" together since the cold war "ended" is ridiculous. Bob has "worked" with Haymon just as much as he has GBP since(may-pac, benivadez-herrera), but he actually did GBP dirty with the Herrera fight.

Why doesn't Bob make Benavidez-Crawford after he went to the bother of robbing Herrera in first place. Trying to protect both his guys from a loss, using Herrera as a stepping stone.

Bad fight for Herrera. That other guy is too lanky. Should do the Lundy rematch. Unfinished business.

Crawford-Herrera will be on HBO. The Lundy fight was on HBO Latino. Guess which one makes Herrera more money.

It's certainly easier to make deals with other promoters when you're guy is the favorite, but there's no interest in Crawford-Benavidez.

If that fight was made, it would be criticized as Arum keeping it in-house...and that's if HBO even accepted it.

Benavidez has size and some boxing tools, but he has the look of a real underachiever.

As for what's going on with Top Rank and GBP, they have a common enemy in Haymon, and common ally in HBO...and HBO is making it worth their while to work together.

He could've made the Lucas Matthysse fight, Matthysse is Crawford's mandatory.

But let's not sugar-coat it, they're keeping Crawford away from Matthysse to save him for Pacquiao and Herrera is a non-punching opponent who can't win on the cards to use as a stepping stone.

As boxing fans we should acknowledge what's going on.

Lets see if Crawford wants it.he already ducked Herrera once

[barks62]

Lundys scraps? lol ok bro. Lundy was hitting the air all night unless you count head butts...

Yeah I know. I just think it's funny that TC has two straight fights against guys that just beat Lundy.

[Outworn]

Arum doesn't want to put Crookford with Prov after what happen to Bradley.

I hope this fight doesn't happen cos Herrera will get rob again.
