Comments Thread For: Crawford vs. Diaz - Agreement in Place, on HBO, May 20 in Newark

[-PBP-]

Glad that Iman wasn't accepted by HBO. But he is the Mandatory. Crawford is gonna have to fight him next if he doesn't get that unification.

Get at me bro!!!! Told you it was all posturing.

Diaz not with Haymon. But with DiBella.

Which is basically the same. Most fighters promoted by DiBella is advised by Haymon.

And Diaz signed with Haymon almost 2 years before he signed with DiBella

aahhh in the bricks! Definitely going!


anyone else here from nj gonna go?

I wonder who's going to win this one..

Because he got KO'd by Granados? HBO would have been attacked by angry, vicious mobs if they picked Imam.

Maybe that's it. I just never thought HBO cared much about stoppages before or even about fan backlash. I think Lundy lost 2 of 3 before getting a HBO slot against Crawford.

Bud-Diaz should be a good one nonetheless

You are correct.

I think theres something going on with Imam that he cant fight Crawford at the moment. Maybe he was shook?

I like this fight, but seriously, is it worth it for Crawford to stay @ 140 if he can't fight Mikey Garcia? I think Diaz is very high-risk, low reward, and so are fighters like Rances Barthelemy and Amir Imam. Crawford needs Mikey Garcia, DSG, Pacquiao, and Thurman!

This is a fight I can get excited about.

I like BOTH of these fighters A LOT! Diaz despite being a Gold Medal Winner never gets his respect people always write him off but I think he earns it in this one. I think he come up short but I think he gives Crawford one hell of a scare might even be some Controversy and some "Crawford Is Overrated" BS after this one because people are underrating the hell out of Diaz!
