Comments Thread For: Crawford-Collazo Deal Nearly Done; Could Be March 23 At MSG

[RJJ-94-02=GOAT]

haymon had nothing to do with this fight. Collazo team made the deal with top rank then let Haymon it was done. All Haymon is doing is taking 10% of Collazo million dollar purse

Haymon 100% had some influence on this. Without Haymon’s approval Collazo and his team couldn’t of taken this fight.

We’re done here...

MGM has never put anywhere near as much money behind a Crawford fight than had historically been put behind Spence.

sure they have. Neither guy has had a ton of money ever backing them. These aren't Canelo Mayweather or Pacquiao

Wrong. Connolly calls the shots. Haymon doesn't need to approve. You don't know how boxing works. Just like Haymon didn't approve of Jacobs signing with Hearn or Khan fighting Canelo and tried to talk him out of it or Khan signing with Hearn. Guys like Thurman have to get Haymon's approval based on their contract. Guys like Collazo, Wilder, etc that have Haymon on board as a third guy don't need his approval.

What a shit fight and a waste of time.

Stop talking like an insider kid you’re NOT. You’re just speculating about how Haymon’s model works without any genuine insight.

If you don’t believe Haymon had influence/involvement in this fight you are deluded.

And I’m past caring now, done here...😴😴

I'm a massive Crawford fan, but I'm not watching this fight. Collazo got a pasting from Amir Khan a few years ago, and he'll only be older and slower now. Yawnfest. mid to late stoppage with Crawford winning every second of every round.

Wow what a crappy fight.

[Willy Wanker]

Crawford still fighting the best I see.

So what was Benavidez? What was Jeff Horn?

'Jumping ship' is a term usually associated with an accumulated opinion of something.

This is what the so called no. 1 lb4lb today should do. just pass the eye test by fighting only tomato cans to prove he's the best.
