    Crawford is making his money now, but where is there for him to grow his profile from?

    He fights Indongo in Nebraska, has the Lipinets mandatory due for the IBF, and then what?

    None of the top welterweights/junior welterweight are going to take the fight for the pennies left over after Arum takes his piece and Crawford takes the rest of the pot, the options in house aren't all that good, and the only way Arum is likely to even entertain a tough fight would be on PPV.

    All Mikey needs to do is keep winning and the opportunities are there for him to lauch
    I think bob is positioning Crawford to get his second division belt against horn. Easy belt and enough demand to beat the Pacquiao slayerto make it a relative big money fight.

      Lomachenko's next fight is at an arena that can maybe seat 5,000 for boxing, with cheap tickets, without HBO financing everything. Keep tricking yourself if you want.

        Beterbiev is signed to GYM, is still advised by Al Haymon, and the winning purse bid only gives Top Rank the rights to the one fight. lol.

        Errol Spence Jr was signed with Al Haymon from right after the 2012 Olympics, has been guided to a world title, and is already talking about a likely fight in Dallas come November (which likely headlines Showtime Championship Boxing of a big PBC show).

        Keep digging your hole, lol

          Third division, but even if that is the case, and Crawford beats Horn, what is there for him to do after that?

          The WBC, WBA, and IBF seem to be working together to try and spur on unification, and all three welterweight belts are on the same side of the fence.

          Freddie Roach has already made it clear that he doesn't want that fight for Pacquiao, Tim Bradley doesn't want to fight Crawford, and I doubt JMM bothers with the fight either.

          Jessie Vargas, Ponomarev, and whatever fighters that Top Rank has at 140lbs. Those are Crawford's options, and all that while, you'll likely see the boxing folks on ESPN talking up all of the fights that he should be looking at instead.

            Every hype he gets loses his momentum, because we have to wait ages until his next fight is announced.
            i read it a couple months a month. Supposedly it was right before the brook fight

              actually Crawford han been slicing up PBc fighters like felix diaz and John Molina. Eddie hearns guy is next. There are still guys like matthysse Danny garcia Sadam Ali ponamarev Jessie vargas kavaliaaukas and adrien Broner available

                  That's almost as much as garcia and Broner had at the Barclays AFTER slashing ticket prices and not counting the thousands of freebie tickets

                    betervievs contracts expire after thisnfoght. Why do I think top rank bid on it? Why do U think Michel didn't and Haymon didn't send one of his sham promoters to bid on his behalf? They know he is gone after this fight and don't want to waste the money for a low level fight

                      lol, in what world is Eddie Hearn going to send Josh Taylor over to the US, to fight Terence Crawford on short money, when he can continue to build his 10-0 Olympian into the man to carry Scottish boxing (while also eventually fighting for world titles)? Ricky Burns and Anthony Yigit in Scotland, or Adrien Broner in London are already in the cue.

                      Lucas Matthysse is just coming back with Golden Boy, Sadam Ali is with Golden Boy, and Ponomarev is with Top Rank (Jessie Vargas is fighting his Top Rank deal as we speak, lol).

                      Have fun with that.
