    WRONG!!!

    Alvarado is the perfect test for Crawford. Name recognition, etc.

    I think Thurman is too big and too much for Crawford. 147 isn't a good weight for him. I'm a big big fan of Crawford too!

      I think TC would beat up Thurman.

        If he refuses he gets put on the shelf for a year like Walters & Vargas

          I don't want to shyt on Alvarado because he brings it every time, and I like seeing fighters like him get the money, but dang, the in-house business protocol is just diluting the sport for the sake of the promoters.

            He's not a test for Crawford at welterweight. Who has he beat? His best days are behind him and those best days were at 140

              These fight don't get made unless the fighter gives the go ahead. You fools need to realise they do have a say in who they fight and it's Bobs job as a promoter to make YOU think they don't.

                I'm not getting it.
                Just because he says he wants Thurman, a PBC fighter, he'll get it like a piece of cake. Kills me with these PBC/Haymon fanboys.
                How about putting pressure on Haymon fighters doing a round robin first before putting non-Haymon fighters into the mix?
                How about trashing Haymon for his inability to make these in-house fights?
                Why Bobfather when Thurman is not even one of his fighters?
                How about Thurman vs Spence, Spence vs Garcia, Spence vs Porter?
                Man I won't even mind Spence vs Peterson.
                The extreme bias is driving me crazy with these Haymon fanboys.
                Is it really so hard to be objective in this damn place?
