    Spence isn't ducking Crawford and Crawford isnt ducking Spence. This is all up to Arum. Hes always the reason we never seen any big fights against his guys outside his stable.

      It’s amazing that all the posters that have been banned for racism always seem to find fault with Haymon and his fighters when a fight doesn’t happen, regardless of the facts. That can’t be a coincidence.

      ESPN and Top Rank are operating the same way HBO and Top Tank did- make fights with other promoters when the TR guy is sure to win or it’s a mando that has to be fulfilled or the TR fighter loses their belt.

      Hopefully ESPN management operates differently in the future.

        Crawfish ducked when he asked for a 50/50 split. Crawfish ducked when he re-signed with Bob. We all agreed Charlo locked himself out of the big fights when he didn't sign with DAZN, well Crawfish ain't no different from Charlo right now. He's happy fighting bums in front of his hometown fans. Don't make excuses for him. Even Manny left Top Rank to get better fights, Crawfish should have down the same.

          Spence will fight the best, crawfish won't.

          That is the truth
          Crawford is the best. That's why the pbc fighters are in hiding.

            We only want to see the best fight the best unless it's two elite Americans...

              Spence isn't ducking anyone. Crawford re-signed with Arum making it harder to make the fight. If you believe Arum actually wants this fight right now you are gullible as heck, he's doing the same routine he always does by running to the media meanwhile doing nothing to actually make the fight.

              Spence has been wanting the Porter fight, you seem to forget it was Kenny saying "oh but we're not ranked by the IBF" when Spence had that voluntary defense.

                Honestly it doesn't seem like any of the top welterweights want to fight each other.

                  This right here. The TR history is well known. Mr Arum negotiates via the media the fight never happens. Now you got Hearn doing the same crap.

                  The funny thing is that when they leave the media out the fights gets negotiated right away without any fuzz

                    When is the last time Al Haymon has worked with anyone else tho regarding big fights? Can't remember one instance recently...

                    Atleast Arum and DAZN seem to be willing to work together. I don't think it's Bob Arum that is preventing these fights man. Arum likes to prevent his big stars fighting each other, but I don't think he has problems with his stars fighting big fights with fighters from other promoters since he has confidence in them. I'm convinced he wants Crawford vs Spence to happen and would not be against Loma-Mikey and stuff like that.

                    I think Haymon is trying to make PBC the UFC of boxing or something. They are completely ignoring other fighters in the sport not signed to PBC...that's horrible. Atleast ESPN and DAZN do interviews and talk about other fighters that are not a part of their stable. This can't be denied bro. Has nothing to do with race.

                      Who has he beat?

                      Crawfish will continue to be in mismatches. All the big fights will be in PBC
