Top Rank using Crawford's card to promote Lomachenko

[Goldie]

$$$$ and Race.

Don't forget we ALWAYS see Loma and Bob Arum hanging and taking photo ops at fights. I can't remember the last time I saw Crawford and Bob next to each other watching fights???

I agree. Obviously race is a factor in the difference in treatment. I was just trolling the coward who was trying to act dumb. Maybe he wasn’t acting tho.

I find it hard to understand why an American ww is secondary to a Russian LW when it come to an American promotional company.

This ain’t a Manny and cotto dynamic where one guy is a huge star and bob chooses a mega star over him.

Crawford has the built in base in Omaha that draws well that Loma doesn’t have.

Why can’t you understand why some posters look at that and ask questions or even get upset?

Crawford took the money so he can’t really complain.

Crawford makes more money than Loma. I don't see how Crawford is secondary.

Commey vs. Teo is the fight of the night. That fight was actually made before the Crawford vs Mean Machine fight. They threw Crawford on the main event to draw viewers to the card so we can listen to them talk about Lomachenko all night.

The investment they've made in fighters around Lomachenko to make sure he has legitimate opponents and their promotions behind him is how you build a star.

Bob even said Crawford's fight isn't going to be a good fight.

Quit being racist. It's boring, and the only people who respect you are other racists.

Be better. Grow up. We have enough people bleating nonsense on this forum.

Man how exhausting it must be to make absolutely everything about race

Go find something sick to suck.

Not as exhausting as it is to lie and deny that race plays a factor in everything involving relations regarding people of different races. You people are the biggest p*ssies on earth lol.

If race isn’t the reason, then why does loma get preferential treatment over Crawford from TR?

What gets me is this:

You make you look bad, you make me look bad.

Do you understand the weight of that statement? Because apparently you and some other people don't.

Now let me answer your initial question why a Russian (hes really Ukrainian) LW pulls better than an American WW despite both being promoted by an American company.

$$$$$$$$

Wow.

Yet you guys STILL pretend like you dont know the answers to the questions you guys ask.

What gets me too is that you also know that boxing is a "what have you done lately " sport and yet you still call yourself "fans" that need to ask these questions.

Lomachenko is only trending up with an undisputed unification on the horizon and a list of competitors lined up waiting to fight him.

What's crawford doing? Defending a belt against a nobody with a bleak look on his future as anyone relevant is signed with PBC and Crawford made the choice to resign with Top Rank.

As a promoter who do you think is selling themselves better, Lomachenko or Crawford?

Wow. Such easy questions to answer yet you guys keep acting like it's so hard. There are such things as dumb questions. Dont let anyone tell you different.

I'm not even discussing this no more until fight week and fight night. Watch how much more talk of Loma there will be. More than Crawford

Oh yeah you're really tough man, you're about as tough as Jeb Bush...yeah race plays a role in a lot of things this is true...it is a big identifier and unifier for people as much as it is a divider, but people always choose to focus on the negative and play the victim so many cry foul about race all the time, even where no real issue is evident.

If the inverse of this were true and a future Crawford fight was on the Loma main card, I would just look at that and say it's smart business...and that's how I view this situation...not that Bob was 'favoring Crawford' or vice versa...you guys just don't really understand how business works I suppose.

Loma has more options to fight than Crawford right now...Crawford has been more or less xed out by PBC so he is in a tougher spot...things like that just happen in boxing sometimes...he still has been given PPVs vs Postol and Khan...pretty big star treatment there, would you agree?

Btw Bob is ***ish...***s traditionally have a better relationship with the black community than the white community...but that goes against your narrative here so I'm sure you will try and explain that away.

But do you man...you can keep playing the victim and crying about everything that goes wrong and playing the race card...and it will largely get you nowhere in life...so if that's the route you want to take go ahead.

Or you can realize that in some situations today a person's race may be used against them, and in some cases that same person could have advantages because of their race...to ignore those instances where being black for example is an advantage just gives you no real credibility.

But do you man, it's your life.

Loma has more fans than Crawford...a lot of guys who would be Crawford fans are on the other side of the street and favoring PBC fighters, since for some reason people want to side with not just their favorite fighters these days, but their favorite promoters.

Crawford's promoter is the wrong color so it has cost him a lot of fans.
