This dude only fights bums.

Unless he dumps Arum, he would he would get stuck fighting guys like that, what a waste!

[IceTrayDaGang]

bu bu but its not crawford's fault doe! lol

[IceTrayDaGang]

anyone can look good when you fighting bums, til this day postol (went all 12) is his best comp lol

Errol Spence Jr is on a timeline with the Porter-Ugas winner, just like Keith Thurman is on a timeline for the Pacquiao-Broner winner. Don't deceive yourself.

The only thought/consideration should be if Luis Collazo is a better opponent now than Kavailuaskas.

Danny Garcia is free than after April.

Ok fine, ffs. I didn't even mention Brook. I mentioned Khan.

Bro, you specifically said

At least have a common opponent with Spence to compare to.

That means Algieri or Brook. Or did you forget Spence fought Brook?

[Combat Talk Radio]

Does anyone give him full credit for the Roy Jones win? That was a cherry pick if I've ever saw one.

Around the time of all three of those fights people were calling Calzaghe the next coming, P4P #1, the best fighter in history, etc. So yes, he got a lot of credit for beating Jones the way he did and even more credit for beating Eubank virtually into retirement. He didn't get major credit for beating Hopkins until after he'd retired - when people point to those three + Lacy as proof of his greatness.

Lol!!!!!! B-b-but spence ducking tho!!!!!!

[MisanthropicNY]

So it seems that they are working on a fight against Spence in the future by working with Haymon, Spence can't let Mikey ruin the biggest fight of his life.

Yeah, sure they are... keep telling yourself that... whatever makes you feel better....

Unless he dumps Arum, he would he would get stuck fighting guys like that, what a waste!

He signed with Arum specifically with that reason. Dude just made $3 million fighting a bum. Arum promised him big money for low risk fights. Better than losing to Spence and then having to be in tough fights every other time around under Haymon. He ducked Pacquiao for Christ's sake.

Haymon definitely has influence. These “promoters” like TGB, Dibella Entertainment, Mayweather Promotions etc are just vehicles to avoid Haymon being prosecuted under the Ali Act.

I’m not saying this a any huge ground break in the Arum-Haymon Cold War, but the fact that a Arum fighter is fighting a Haymon fighter is definitely a positive step forward in relations between the two.

So they we getting Bes***** vs Thurman in the summer??
