How is it that Crawford is always asked to leave Top Rank...

[rickJen]

...yet PBC fighters are not asked the same thing?
Crawford has been getting more than $1.2 mil fighting the likes of Lundy, Molina, etc.
Almost the same amount given to Garcia, Thurman, Porter when they fought each other.
Mikey Garcia had to fight Broner to get his first $1 mil.
Do you really want Crawford to fight once a year just like Part-time Boxing Champions (PBC)?

because Arum's white lol

but great point, you're correct

[Gigantes]

Bradley made way more money than anyone in the PBC side, yet for some reason he should've left TR

Bradley has a great shot going to the HOF. Anyone in PBC close to that?

People are fans of promoters these days which is weird. It's a strange thing and a lot of it stems from who their favorite fighter is.

Crawford usually fights 2-3 times per year so not only is he able to make $4-5m per year he's also able to build momentum and stay active and gain plaudits and be in the pound for pound discussion. There isn't a PBC guy that can claim to be #1. The PBC guys are lucky if they fight twice, so they earn less money and aren't building great resumes. They also fight in front of smaller audiences with less people tuning in.

All started when Floyd insisted Manny leave Arum to make the fight. Since then, all the cheerleaders showed their undying loyalty to Haymon while hating on Arum. Not realizing that Haymon and Arum probably have more in common than they do differences. At least in the manner of doing business.

PBC controls the WBC, WBA and IBF welterweight titles and has the top four welterweights in the world according to TBRB.

So with Crawford now moving up to welterweight, there are obviously going to be fans wishing he fought in the universe that has the best welterweights.

If your name is Rios or Vargas, you're more likely to land fights at PBC,
than if your name is Crawford. Doe.

It would be a HUGE coup for PBC to snatch Crawford from TR. This is all fantasy talk and I don't see it happening, but Crawford would have no problem getting two dates a year on Showtime for big money against big names. A lot of the top PBC guys that fight once a year do so because that is their preference. Danny Garcia could have fought Shawn Porter last year for the interim WBC world title, but preferred to rest.

Crawford is in the same boat Tim Bradley was in. A guy who will never be a big draw as the A-side, but can make a very healthy living as a big fish in the smaller TR pond. Arum will overpay for a few guys to make sure another entity can't gain full control. The few top guys that stick with TR are paid very well because TR needs a few guys to stay relevant. Tim Bradley was always paid way more than he was worth because it was too dangerous to let him go anywhere else. That is the boat Crawford is in. I'd be absolutely shocked if he left TR anytime soon.

Errol Spence also made 4mil just to fight Lamont Peterson. What’s your point. All the big fighters are fighting twice a year.
You made a great point with Mikey lol he spent all those years with Top Rank and never earned 1million dollars. It only took him 1 fight under PBC to make 1million. Crawford is leaving Arum it’s just a matter of when. Only idiot to stay with Arum forever was Pacquio
