Comments Thread For: Arum: If Crawford Wins, I'll Call Haymon To Make Spence Fight

[TreJac]

Spence vs. Pacquiao is way way bigger than Spence vs. Crawford.

Spence vs. Thurman is bigger than Spence vs. Crawford.


Crawford has no fan base outside of his home town. His fight vs. Khan won't come close to what Spence just did PPV buy wise even though Khan is more well known than Garcia.

The same BS you fake boxing fans said about Ward! Keep coming up with ****** excuses on why the two top WW shouldn't fight each other and we'll move you into the "don't know shiiiiit about boxing" category!

PBC has plenty of interesting opponents for Spence, including potential unification fights against Shawn Porter, Keith Thurman or Manny Pacquiao.

Top Rank has zero interesting opponents for Crawford, including no potential unification fights against anyone.

Why would PBC want to deal with the headaches of trying to work something out with Arum, when the in house fights are bigger than the fight they can make with Arum, assuming Arum is even genuine about wanting to make the fight in good faith?

When fake boxing fans like yourself start coming up with BS excuses to justify not wanting to see the best fight the best, that only means a threat is on the horizon! Terrence "Bub" Crawford is his name!

Because that is the stand out fight of the division as it’s a genuine 50/50.

I don’t believe Arum either however, I believe him more now you made those very valid points that he has no in house fighters at 147 so it would be a worthwhile risk putting his most accomplished fighter to smash and grab and take out PBC best welterweight. He definitely has the fighter to do it. Although I’m Team Spence and I predict a knockout for Spence with no real conviction in my prediction

"We can sit down and make the fight in one day just like we did for Mayweather-Pacquiao.....

..... If a promoter blocks that fight, he ought to be ashamed."

Arum blocked that fight for FIVE YEARS

and he is not ashamed at all

there is Arum-speak..... and there is Arum-do

I wonder what that was ?

when Arum says something, the conclusion of an intelligent man is..... now, why does he need me to believe that?

Yeah right! GTFOH! A old azz Manny who fought tooth and nails with Horn and a guy who has been injured and fought once in 2 1/2 years!

Thank you for your uneducated, inexperience, amateur opinion. I assure you anybody with any understanding of the PPV industry would agree that Spence vs. Pacquiao would out sell Spence vs. Crawford, just as Spence vs. Garcia and Pacquiao vs. Broner will both easily out sell Crawford vs. Khan.

Look at all the haters coming up with excuses to justify not wanting to see a Bud/Spence showdown! GTFOH! you can't hide behind the smoke & mirrors anymore! We know who you are! You same haters are hoping Khan beats Bud so your boy Spence can continue avoiding Bud.

I'm not a boxing fan.

I never said what I wanted to see. I would love to see Spence vs. Crawford.

I'm simply pointing out why this fight makes no business sense.

The first thing Arum says when Al picks up the phone, ''before we discuss anything...Crawford is A side mayne!''

[P4Pdunny]

will believe this when it's signed sealed and delivered

Why are you more interested in ppv numbers and sells than the actual fight? Are you running numbers for Spanky? The more competitive/even fight by far is Bud/Spence! Fuukkk the numbers! I could give a shiiiit about the numbers! Are you a fight fan or are you writing a paper for your math class?
