Comments Thread For: Arum: If Crawford Wants 3-4 Fights a Year - We Have The Dates

[Letmaku]

What Arum means is that he already has 3-4 bums lined up from Crawford.

Why not retire the unretired Pacquiao again for PPV?

[killakali]

Didn't watch the fight, but the scorecards showed no knockdown, so what are you talking about?

Are u high of just can’t afford the app? He knocked horn down right before the fight was waved off. U should cance showtime and get the app bro. Half the price of showtime and he more fights plus the full undercards and other sports.

a lot of pbc cards at Barclays give away hella tickets

Wrong, I know for a fact they're not because one of my plugs is a Showtime exec (very close classmate and he's at the VP level). You can't get free tickets for a lot of the Dibella cards now (at least not good cards). You could a few years back, but they've been selling those tickets now. You can only get free tickets for the b.s. cards.

Wilder v. Ortiz
Spence v. Peterson
Broner v. Vargas
And others are all pulling those crowds.

Y'all just like to come on here and push b.s. to support whatever bias you have.

Ask yourself, if they're given so many away for Dibella then why didn't that strategy work for the Danny/Big Baby card. I was there for free in great seats with about 7k people and both of those guys are from BK.

Why would anybody cancel Showtime, a network with a full calendar of solid fights, for ESPN's app where you're generally waiting for two guys with the occasional meaningful fight thrown in.

This past Saturday I watched Fury's comeback, Hooker v. Flanagan, Trout v. Charlo, and LSC v. Mares all through Showtime.

I watched one fight via ESPN, Crawford v. Horn.

A few weeks back we saw Jack v. Stevenson and GRJ v. Diaz back-to-back on Showtime.

It's not even close in terms of quality fights right now. You must be Crawford's cousin or something lol you troll all of his articles

[goldenbear]

Not really a lot of quality guys for 3-4 times a year.....

Only people available would be Figueroa, Peterson, Matthysee or Pac?, Vargas, Porter or Garcia loser because winner will fight Spence or Thurman since with Haymon. I don't see Crawford in huge fight till 2020 unfortunately and many on the list I named aren't definite either.

im sure The danny Jacobs fights hd plenty of giveaways too.

Ortiz-wilder and Broner-vargas both had Big discounts on seats two weeks prior to the fights and that doesn’t include any comps

actually u didn’t need to have showtime to watch the Tyson fury mismatch. Nice try though. All u need was internet access for Facebook or YouTube and you were good to go.

Showtime has 1-2 cards a month and the espn app has the same plus the unsercwrds of the espn fights so u can see the development of Shakur Stevenson Teofimo Lopez etc and Big Dan Rafael’s show.

That’s just for boxing. There’s a lot of other content like college football and at $5 a month it’s a third of what I pay for showtime and hbo. I pay $15 a month for those so I don’t cry for $5. Maybe not everyone can afford that extra $5.

[Scipio2009]

Lol

Watched Charlo-Trout in an ok fight, LSC-Mares 2 in a good fight, have the Spence-Ocampo card next week, with a nice little ShoBox card featuring Shields and Hammer in their lead-in.

All for $12.

To that, you add in Garcia-Easter already being announced for July, plus getting to watch Billions, and you're a dammed fool talking that nonsense.

I look for value when I'm spending my money. ESPN+ just got you for your free trial, the next confirmed boxing content is a can crush for Jose Ramirez in July and a likely can crush by Prograis, before having to pay up for Pacquiao in August, lol.

Have fun with that

He's delusional lol

[buddyr]

If Bud fights a couple times on ESPN he will be a household name.
He has the goods as far as boxing goes and Arum knows how to milk it.

Him and Lomachenko will NEVER be a household name under Bob. He's not gonna allow another one to get away from him like De la hoya did. Floyd bought his freedom and Pac was only big to the casual fan cuz they were using the Mayweather fight as a talking point. Lomachenko and Crawford need to get the hell away from Arum cuz he's not gonna let them get too big without them being locked in to him. And fighting on ESPN is one thing, fighting on ESPN+ is another because lots of people don't have that app. I swear that's not a smart move putting one of your top fighters, and one of the top fighters in the world, on EPSN+
