    It is Arum that is not interested and is only interested in making the Spence fight and this IMO is Hurting Bud and you now have people dropping him in their P4P rankings because of his level of competition and rightfully so. However, it seems out of his control when it comes to getting better fights

      Do you understand boy?

      And Arum doesn't really matter. He had Crawford to fight Collazo or Lopez last Spring, but Crawford vetoed it and offered the career high payday to Danny Garcia. After Danny declined and ducked they offered to Khan
      Stop with your childish a$$ remarks.

      Anyways, Porter JUST got done fighting. Of course he wasn't going to fight Crawford later this year. But he was targeting that fight for the first half of 2020. What is the issue with that?

      Good, hopefully Crawford puts some heat on Arum and forces him to look into making the Porter fight. But Arum's comments were pretty strong in that he didn't think this was all that good of a fight and he doesn't think Porter deserves anywhere near 4-5M. In fact, he's also made comments that fighting Porter is really no different than fighting Mean Machine or Be*****.

        Crawford is better than all of them. That's why Danny turned down a career high payday to fight a journeyman.

        I still rate Porter and Danny Garcia as C+/B- WWs. Thurman is a B- and Spence a B-. Crawford is a B+.
        sorry, i dont care about your ranking system. i care who they beat. and bud’s opponents are trash. spruce it up however you like

          Bob still operates by the old methods of promotion.

          When he feels Crawford is near the end, he'll cut the safety net and agree to Crawford having the biggest fight he can get.

          After that Bob usually leaves the fighter in the wilderness all alone, if/when they lose.

              Hopefully the fight happens. Dont get lost in the talk.

              Arum lies literally everyday. Ans Porter is Mr. I CANT fight Spence because I'm not ranked by the IBF.

              Words are words. Hopefully we're debating the fight in about 3-4 months after it's been announced

                Sorry that you disagree. There are other narratives in boxing than your own

                    I really don’t wanna see Crawford face Brook. Brook looks shot and would be absolutely dead at 147. Crawford would absolutely batter him.
                    I agree 100%. Brook doesn't even seem like he wants to fight anymore. He's looking to cash out and we already saw Crawford beat up the Cash out king in Amir Khan.

                      Yeah I don’t think it would even be competitive. Brook isn’t relevant, looks washed, and can’t make 147 without it taking something out of him.
