Comments Thread For: PBC Exec: Arum Desperate, Great Fights Ahead Like Crawford-Khan

[BillyBoxing]

PBC openly sabotaging the biggest fight in boxing.

They did the same for PAC Vs may for years and ruined the aura of the fight

[Mikedadon]

See I can't get with that patronizing tone that Tim smith and pbc has "there are great fights ahead for terrence crawford like amir khan"

Same thing they doing with gervonta davis, I mean how hard is it to make the fights that everybody wants? Not hard at all

This cold war between the promoters is messing up the game and preventing these fights for happening.

Sure Khan is a ppv attraction again. Khan vs anybody for 70 bucks. Hahahaha

[sparda77]

Crawford khan?? lmao, this guy must be trolling

[bronx7]

Boxing business is never about what’s best for fighters. It’s $ Haymon has all the WW he will not give in and make best fight Spence vs bud because arum needs it. He can round robin his top 7 ww and make good fights until bud jumps ship with buyout or takes a bad deal for unification

So you agree on sabotaging one of the best fights because of tribalism?
Errol Spence is one of my favorite fighters, (and I hope he kicks Crawford @ss) but to me this all points out to the culprit and for the most part I think is the PBC side.

LoL, more fan-girls whining .... here we go again. Anyone who has been around knows PBC is giving Bob a taste of his patented OWN MEDICINE. Top Rank has played this same hardball with everyone when they could. Now they are at a disadvantage. Oh Well!

There are lots of fighters and fights out there. Bob is just tryna make PBC the bad guys .... same script since he filed those knucklehead lawsuits a few years back. And he's playing the race card even. Wow. Keep crying dude, you ain't in control anymore ...

Pretty sure this response, if comprehended correctly, means they could care less about Crawford, and would rather make filler than substance. And if you agree with it, you're thee problem

I just wished Al Haymon had some sort of public presence. Some things he doesnt have to justify with a response but let the boxing world know what he thinks about things; talk about the future of boxing, etc.

All boxers in USA are making more, because Haymon and PBC got in the game. If you're a fighter there is nothing wrong and a whole lot right. It's a livelihood right?

I've rarely seen ANY promoter, advisor, or network jump and scamble because a rival promoter is unhappy about something. All the public whining and posturing to make a competitor the "bad guys" is childish ... and like many have said, desparation. Arum needs to stop, and do his work. THere are other fights and fighters out there ... he needs to be creative and work hard. Or get his wallet out and PAY to make it happen. Period.

[MastaBlasta]

I'm no fan of the "Harvard ***" Bob Arum, but he's right about this. Al Haymon is ruining boxing.

LoL, yea, uh-huh. WRONG! See my comment to Richardt.


US fighters are making more and better percentages of money generated by fights than ever ... because of the things Haymon/PBC have done. You do remember that choir that was singing "PBC is overpaying fighters" 2 years ago, right?

I think a lot of y'all need to be honest with yourselves and just admit you don't like seeing/feeling that is Haymon running the show (for whatever your reasons are). So now boxing is ruined?? Really?? ROFL ... quit sniveling man.

That's just a lie and you know it. PBC didn't even exist back then. Wiki: "The first Premier Boxing Champions card was broadcast by NBC on March 7, 2015. "

Floyd vs PAC was on May 2, 2015. PBC wasn't around for those years of missed opportunities.
