    Crawford is like a Mayweather with power but he has to move up in weight to fight Thurman. If Crawford moves up another weight class im afraid he wouldnt knock his opponents out anymore, be even more patient so that he would be boring like Mayweather. I want him to stay where he is. Let Thurman fight Garcia thats a good fight. Or Thurman vs. Bradley.

        You're an idiot. He's clearly saying he doesn't want him to move up, which he'd have to do to fight Thurman. Gggs got you upset eh?

          But at least we had Garcia vs. Guererro, Frampton vs. Quigg, LSC vs. Kiko Martinez, Spence Jr. vs. Algieri, Jack vs. Bute, DeGale vs. Medina, Charlo vs. Trout, Charlo vs. Jackson, Andrade vs. Nelson, Barthelemy vs. Bey, Fonfara vs. Smith Jr., Warren vs. Payano, Thurman vs. Porter, Stevenson vs. Williams, and tonight we get LSC vs. Frampton. If you have Showtime, like I do, you didn't have to spend $60 for any of them. That's not bad, and it's only July. PBC has it's flaws, but is HBO doing any better? Is Top Rank doing better? How about GBP? What's up with K2?

            How about Terence Crawford vs. Rances Barthelemy?

              Zab hurt him and Mattyshe shook him up with some shots.

                Haymon's PBC model seems to be along the lines of the UFC. He enticed the talent with relatively easy paydays, signed them up, established a platform, and now the talent have to fight each other.

                The interesting thing about this one is, what happens when Angel says no?

                  This fight (Thurman vs Garcia) will not even be on PBC. It will be on Showtime.

                    It'd definitely be on Showtime due to the scale of it. It's still a PBC presentation though, CBS is just one of the networks that their fights are broadcast on.

                    It'll be interesting to see who has the most clout and final say on Danny's opposition should Uncle Al and Angel disagree. I can understand him protecting his son but at some point that's going to cause friction with Haymon.
