Comments Thread For: Crawford "Excited" About Facing "Big Threat" Indongo on ESPN

[p4ptbe]

which one of the three had a title and was already signed to arum? Is boxing a business or is it not? Seeing how pac looked against horn? Purely a business decision. Broner and danny had a chance at easy money, but got greedy. Is it true or is it not? Manny probably made 10 million apiece for vargas and horn. Meanwhile, broner and garcia made how much? For their split decision and loss? It's like comedy talking to you. Broner and garcia had a potential easy win against manny, but ended up getting a split decision (broner) and a loss (garcia). What is their worth now?

wow you are slow! Danny and broner are stars! Vargas is a no body! If danny can make $2 million for thurman he needs at least 4 to 5 million for manny! They ofered 3 to broner! According to arum no offfer was ever made to danny so stop lying and bringing danny into this!

I'm glad to see top 10 guys in championship fights on ESPN.

Amen bro AMEN!!!!

Exactly. Same as with Tim. This is a staged loss to make a non ppv sellable fight more sellable.

It will be interesting if the rematch is on espn or ppv. If it's on ppv then you can fairly argue bob, WBO, Vada ( no testing) and Manny were all in on it.

very interesting take. i can buy it. thats what i thought about the first bradley-pac fight and the first kovalev-ward fight. ive seen a LOT of rigged judging this past year.

Indongo is a threat because he's still largely unknown. The Troyanovsky didn't show us much because it ended so quick. The Burns fight showed a lot more but still not enough to get a great read on him. Not much tape out there of him. Crawford will really have to adjust to Indongo's range. Postol was tall but he didn't use his range. With one step Indongo is in and out of range. Crawford is going to have to rely a lot on his timing. I think this fight will be very very interesting for the first half. Indongo might even be up going into the 7th round.

Talk about slow. Manny took home more for fighting Horn and Vargas than he would have likely gotten against Broner or Garcia, because they would have wanted a larger slice of the pie. It's basic addition and subtraction. Let me ask you this...was Broner's decision to turn down Pac a good one? Instead of making good money, he's now the b-side vs Garcia.

YOU ARE DELUSIONAL! MANNY WOULD TAKE THE SAME AMOUNT BECAUSE DANNY AND BRONER WOULD HELP SELL TICKETS AND HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF PPV'S! VARGAS IS NOT EVEN FAMOUS IN HIS OWN MEXICAN COMMUNITY! BRONER AND DANNY HAVE MORE MEXICAN FANS THAN BUM ASS VARGAS LMFAO! YOU ARE TOO DUMB! YOU ARE DISMISSED

[Porter's Dad]

This is a great fight. Indongo has been very impressive the last two fights but Bud is special - maybe the most complete fighter in the game right now.

Everybody knows PPVs aren't selling. Pac/Broner would be just as much of a dud as any recent Pac PPV, regardless of how much of a clown Broner is. What did Pac's last fight do on PPV? Oh, right, it wasn't on PPV. What about Broner's last PPV? Oh, yeah, he's never had one. You got one guy who's last PPV was a dud vs one guy that never had one. Quit pretending it would be a big seller, dim bulb.

[Combat Talk Radio]

Am I the only one who sees Crawford/Indongo as a HUGE mismatch?

I find Indongo sloppy as hell, telegraphing almost every punch, head in the wrong position when he comes in for a jab to the body. If he tries that crap against Bud, he's getting stopped inside of 9 rounds.

Really good fight Indongo looks super impressive so far.
