    He's already guaranteed $3 mil per fight. Crawford is a very arrogant person. And I'm not saying that in a bad way. I noticed the way he deals with Arum is a lot different from the way other fighters deal with him. His team said they aren't going up the UK for the fight. And he said Arum ain't his boss.
    ... the term "arrogant" is used only in a 'bad way"...

    ... Crawford gave me the impression of an intelligent person, who doesn't talk trash... hence the wrong idea that he isn't "charismatic"...

      Oh I don't know. Brook said he wanted Crawford after the Khan fight. I think Hearn wants it in the UK based on Arum and BoMac's comments. It's a much better fight than Kavaliauskas, so if that's what it takes, I think Crawford should travel.

        I'm a fan of Campell's but Lomo would have too much in the later rounds but be great to see Lomo in the flesh again...without the jet lag!

        As the above post suggests wouldn't it be great to have Crawford over to defend against Brook...What a great double header ....come'on Bob.

          I get that impression to. He strikes me as more of a "don't talk about it, be about it" type of person.

            What a joke, Uncle Bob steps on Eddies toes and poor Haney signs with DAZN, thinking this will be him fighting Campbell, this is such a mess and we all wind up with a mismatch that no one cares about, Bob Arum has Lopez go the IBF way to avoid putting Loma in with him, I wonder who Haney will fight next and what his future plans be, ****** move to sign with Eddie Hearn and DAZN

              Campbell does not deserve the opportunity
              I'm not based on the UK so don't know if they could do ppv or not, but the promotors and marketeers, while not being the most honorable chaps, are unlikely to be ****** and try selling it in a way ot can't be sold.

              As for Campbell not deserving the opportunity, pray tell, who does ? Oh wait - Teo right ? Because he beat that most-avoided beast Tatli. I'm not one for triangle theories, as styles and all that, but Campbell is a gold medal winner who took Linares into the trenches - linares took Loma into the trenches - Campbell is as deserving as anyone else at 135, and certainly more deserving than Teo.

                His future plan should be becoming Loma's mandatory if he was sincere about becoming a champion. You can't be a champ and a prospect at the same time.

                    Frankie2Jabs exactly what I told you was going to happen yesterday.

                    Hearn gets the fight in the UK and on Sky Sports PPV, and Arum gets to put the fight on ESPN or ESPN+. Both parties leave satisfied.

                      Don't count it out Crawford traveled tp fight Burns. He just might fight Brook away
