    Yes he needs to get away fast but do it legally so that what happened to Mikey won't happen to him.

    He should have hid the first warning sign, when Rob Arum didn't give him Pacquiao's head because he was too cheap to invest in him. Pacquiao should at least increase his name, there is no down with beating a name like Manny---your popularity only goes up. Look at Al Haymon he is not cheap and is paying Pacquiao well because Manny's name is an investment for his elite fighters.

          BoMac said in the video that he's going to use this to get more money. So you aren't telling us anything new.

          But I'm looking for examples of a star fighter fighting on a network that his promoter doesn't have a network deal with. I've never heard of this ever. Are you saying Crawford is about to do something unprecedented?

            I totally agree. DAZN has horrible, uninteresting cards. The fights you mentioned are the only good ones. DAZN are giving like SHOBOX type fights with prospects. And I would even say SHOBOX gives better cards than DAZN.

                Boxers really need to learn to add the correct terms to their contracts.

                Fight date amounts and a Set Date of Expiration.

                Contract expires which ever happens first.

                Bob will wait 6 years to have him fight 3 times if he is not gonna resign.

                  The problem here is that when boxers enter the pro game, they don't know much about the business side, and a lot of these boxers who sign contracts don't even understand all the legal terminology and what it all means to its fullest, which is why it is super important that they have a lawyer or someone to help them understand what they sign, many times they find out things the hard way.

                    I wish I could remember. I think it was Barbershop Conversations talking about it one time. I do know BoMac had some very unkind words for Watson, but I forget about why.

                      Arum is gonna throw alot of money at him if he didnt already and make Crawford stay.

                      Crawford is Arum’s main attraction and he can’t really afford to lose him.

                      If Im crawford and Arum pays alot of money to fight scrubs, hell yea im staying.

                      This all about business here. *** facing killers if you can make the same money facing bums.
