Thats cool man, enjoy it!

It did. Just wasnt the answer you wanted to hear.

My question was, I guess I'll just re-state -

Why does Top Rank get positivity on here when a fight is announced, but other fight announcements (non Top Rank related)do not? Regardless of the quality of the fight.

I've seen it multiple times now. As a boxing fan, I'm excited to see fights happening period. Especially good ones, which I still see getting backlash on these forums when they're coming from the other side of the pond.

crawford (supposedly the p4p number 1) is fighting the world number 27 and people are saying its a good fight.... good grief. im not even sure wade was ranked that low in his division. He could fight someone with no arms and no legs and you guys would still say its a good fight, the bias on here is something else.

Why you always gotta run down Crawford?
Is it cause hes a black fighter that's actually very good.

Here is what I answered.

“In contrast, anything PBC/Showtime related gets slandered and plagued by negativity for some reason, especially the fighters themselves.”


Nobody has ever claimed Arum or TR were going to save boxing or change it for the better.

Thats the difference. Everyone knows Arum is out to make the most money for himself. People pretend thats not the case with Haymon.

You know what's going on here lol Its obviously racially motivated.

The PBC calendar and stable (and most of the production) are MUCH better than TR (or anybody else in boxing). The closest is Mathroom (in the UK only).

If Crawford was with Haymon, those people you're talking about would call him a bum killer. They're mentally ill. We all know what's going on.

Sad but true. America, I love ya, the only home I'll probably ever know ... but the world capital for racist BS on every level, Sad ...

Anyway, back to boxing ...

[MastaBlasta]

This is why fighters need promoters. Great match imo.

Meanwhile, cats like Spence are looking to catch mice.

Cats like Spence are busting too many people up. Not many wanting to taste and see ... not Spence's fault. He's there if anyone wants to fight. Promoters making "stay busy" fights ... not the greatest thing since sliced bread. No shame on Crawford either. Everyone has to roll with what's lining up in front of them. The big fights will come.

Bud gonna put the paws on him

[BigDramaShow]

This is definatley a 12 round fight, points game. I think Bud edges it out but it will be a war.

[champion4ever]

This is a very good fight. A very intriguing fight. This matchup is a boxing fan's dream. I slightly lean toward Crawford however. In any case, big ups to Bud. This is a huge step up in competition for him.
