It's hilarious how Crawford keeps calling out Spence yet he re-signed with Top Rank

        How much of a minimum guarantee were PBC offering Crawford per fight? I heard they contacted him before prior to him signing. People want financial guarantees in writing not sweet words and promises hence Floyd signing a TV deal with a guaranteed minimum with CBS. Why Stevenson signed with Top Rank and not Mayweather. Why Haney just signed with Matchroom. Why Jacobs signed with Matchroom. Why Canelo signed with DAZN.

          Dude, it's actually the other way around right now. Bob is overpaying Crawford while Crawford is not generating good numbers for him. I understand why Crawford took that offer from a $$$ standpoint. He probably is the most paid welterweight right now except for Pac.

            Crawford would end up as another man down if he gets in the ring with Spence

              Forget the other 3. A win over Pac alone will generate wonders for his career. So was for Crawford if only he got that fight

                I can't see this fight happening for atleat another 18 months.
                No amount of public pressure will result in an earlier fight.
                It's all about the money for this era of fighters and the fans just gotta realize this.
                It ***en sux but it is what it is.

                  If Spence becomes undisputed WBC, WBA and IBF champion, Crawford is the one that will end up with the asterisk.
                  When Pac had that belt he wasn't the least important champion, was he?

                      When Pac had it, it was still the least important and least respected belt. It's the in house Warren/Arum belt. Literally an unrecognized title that Warren & Arum decided to focus on since nobody else wanted it. Now everybody pretends it's legit.

                      For the last 17 years, the WBO welterweight title has been on an Arum fighter at almost all times. Nobody will consider Crawford's claim to the world championship as legitimate as Spence's if Spence unifies the WBC, WBA and IBF.
