Comments Thread For: Crawford's Coach: We Want Spence, Biggest Name For Us at 147

[Fists_of_Fury]

Big Mac just running his mouth as usual when no food is going in it. If they really wanted the Champs at 147lbs. they wouldn't have extended with Top Rank and ESPN+. Crawford and Spence aren't ppv stars so this joint ppv **** isn't likely to happen. Soon will be talks of stadiums and fake count downs.

Hilarious for this to be their position after signing another extension lol

BoMac is a clown in my view. He's like an AAU coach. Just does a bunch of talking while not being very sophisticated.

If your guy is moving up to WW, why sign an extension? It made little no sense. He'll get squeezed out fighting on ESPN. That's just the reality of his situation. Dude is 31. We're looking at another Tim Bradley situation here (except no Manny).

Solid post!

Crawford had 6/7 workman-like rounds with Jeff Horn, where he was getting tagged and giving as he got got, before he separated and blitzed him.

Would hold off on elevating Crawford all that quick.

Great, lets hope that Spence feels as confident as you and signs up for that easy pay day.

EZ win for BUD.

“Right now, the biggest name at the welterweight division for Terence is Errol Spence,” McIntyre said. “So what we’ll do is, and I’m glad Todd on this call, is just put the pressure on him. ESPN is the leader in sports. They want to be the leader in boxing, they’re gonna go out and make those fights happen. So that’s what Terence wants. They want Terence to be the No. 1 fighter in the world, so they must do their job, we do our job, Todd do his job and then the whole job is going to be done.”

I don't understand this strategy by Team Crawford? Bud knew when he signed with TR, and extended his contract with TR, how the game is played! Bud was an active fighter, and watched how Mayweather vs. Pacquiao played out! So there is no effective way to put pressure on Todd Duboef nor Bob Arum! If you wanted to apply pressure, you would've needed to be in a position where you could leave TR! At that point Bud could say, "Get me Spence or I call Al Haymon," "Get me Thurman, or I call Al Haymon," "Get me Porter or I call Al Haymon," "Get me Danny Garcia, or I call Al Haymon!" At this point, Bud can't even say "Get me Pacquiao!" SHAME!

doesn’t work that way. So far Spence hasn’t gotten any name he asked fit and porters dad already said it has to be PPV or its not happening.

Works both ways. Spence can pressure Haymon to make a Crawford fight like Jacobs pressured Haymon to make the GGG fight but so far Spence has been saying Crawford can wait and he wants the pbc fighters first. The problem is the PBC fighters don’t want to fight him so he might as well fight Crawford first

You do know that ESPN+ is paying Crawford a hell of a lot more than Spence is making. And Crawford may not be the PPV star you want him to be but neither is Mikey Garcia or Errol Spence.

Real Fighters call shots and fight the best,, Can't wait to see Crawford to pick ESJr. apart

Crawford has never fought the best, unless you mean best bums.

Haymon fighters get extra checks just so you know. So how the **** do you know if bum beater Crawford makes more or not? I said both Spence and Crawford aren't ppv stars .
