    How bout the more likely contingency, Bob holds his fighters hostage unless the fight is au****ious to his business objectives ?

      Crawford fight will eventually happen but won't happen next

      “If I had to choose, I don’t want the Crawford fight right now,”



      Meanwhile Crawford wanted the fight before the Khan fight

        Get this straight: Neither Spence OR Bud are afraid of anyone. It's promoters that get in the way. Arum already said there will be a waiting period before Spence and Crawford rumble, Now, you casual whiners and b i t c h e r s behave.
        Bob Arum wants the fight so please don't blame uncle Bob. Spence says he wants to clean up the division first. Crawford is older than Spence and uses speed so it's possible Spence wants Crawford to age first before facing him or maybe he feels it's not worth the risk. It is also possible that if the 2 keep winning then they will be able to make more money later fighting each other.

          Spence just fought in front of damn there 50,000 people and made 8 million as his purse plus whatever ppv and back end money he got,he's the clear a side and Bob can't offer anything,the only way the fight gets done is if ESPN opens up they pockets or Al haymon decides it's time,it sucks but Crawford is last on they priority list

            LMAO...These guys are PRIZE FIGHTERS...They're after two prizes every night...#1. MONEY. #2. BELTS.

            Dangle Manny Pacquiao in front of Terence Crawford as opposed to Errol Spence and I GUARANTEE he picks the Pac fight over Spence. It's not even close!

            The fact of the matter, is that Crawford had the perfect opportunity to align himself with the rest of the best welterweights in the world. He chose not to. He will continue fighting the likes of Benavidez (who, btw, rocked him multiple times that fight) Khan, and Horn @ Welter. There's really no one that he can fight within Top Ranks Stable...but guess what...After Khan, Bob the Builder will find him someone..OH I KNOW!!! Mike Alvarado probably or maybe Bes*****.

            GET REAL...

Khan stepped up and "dared to be great".
              Is that the new catch phase, "dare to be great" when a guy cherry picks an opponent? Instead of focusing on the cherry pick, you focus on the other fighter and say he's daring to be great.

                Yes I'm sure he will make 8 million his next fight against whatever journeyman they scare up once Pac and Porter decide to duck him.

                  Ask Mikey Garcia.

                    Pacquaio is old as hell. Fight Thurman, Crawford or even Porter. Time to step up and stop feasting on former Featherweights.

                      The Pacquiao fight only came up now, Spence didn't want to fight Crawford even before the Ocampo fight. I'm not saying he is ducking, he just doesn't want the fight at the moment. He wants it in the future while Crawford wants it now. This has nothing to do with aligning because cross fights have been made. Bob Arum wants the fight, its Spence and maybe his team who don't want it. It's just like Wilder and Joshua. Wilder doesn't want the fight, simple as.
