    Yep, but Egidijus Kavaliauskas looked even worse!

      Danny and Shawn are borderline gatekeepers and Errol is unproven.

      Theres nobody else. Thurman is retired and Pac doesnt want the fight.

      Oh and both Errol and TC said they want their fight to marinate...lots of bumfights in coming XD

      Sad but true :/

          Let me ask you this-if you have a fight on ESPN, against an opponent with an ESPN deal, promoted by a guy with an exclusive ESPN deal, would you be completely conformable?
          That was question of the week. Ouch!

            Harmon was never kicked out of the entertainment industry. What the hell have u been smoking?? Harmon saw how bad arum and other shady promoters were robbing fighters and stepped in as Advisor/Manager and is on top of boxing as we speak. Stay focused lil buddy!

              Correction. I meant Haymon.

                Pac has a title now so Crawford can fight him. Don't be surprise if Arum double dips once again.

                  The obvious Elephant in the Room is still matching the top tier Haymon talent with Arum's fighters (mainly Loma and Crawford). They've worked together technically with much smaller opponents under the Haymon stable (John Molina and Felix Diaz both fighting Crawford). To me the 3 best fights for Crawford under the Haymon stable are the Winner of Garcia vs Porter, Thurman, and ultimately Spence. The problem though is with Showtime having 3/4 of the Welterweight straps I don't see their urgency to extend the olive branch to Arum / Crawford considering he's a threat himself to everyone there not named Spence.

                  I truthfully feel if both Haymon /Top Rank are going to begin working in some capacity, if Danny beats Porter a fight with him and Crawford is a very good start and already comes packaged with a story line (their Am history, both former 140 Unified Champs). I just don't think either A. Danny wants that fight or B. Haymon would sign off on it before Danny were to give Spence a shot. I'd even argue a Danny vs Crawford fight might be more publicized being I think Crawford is more widely known than Spence currently and Bud being recognized by many as #1-3 P4P in the World. Danny at some point has to take a risk between Spence and Bud and at the very least he's seen Bud before.

                  All wishful thinking though...

                    this right here is on point. Haymon is going to keep it in house. There isn’t enough money in it for him to risk one of his guys vs Crawford. Maybe after they unify all three of those titles over there then it will be big enough

                      Right, I agree but I'll give Bob this he did make the Loma and Linares fight and the Rigo fight. But usually he does throw a wrench in it.
