[IceTrayDaGang]

TC nees to stfu!! "nothing i can do"... yeah right... that's why you re-sgined with TR knowing all the other top contenders at ww is with PBC. STFU already!

Pbc avoiding him like the Black Plague.

They not avoiding Bud, they avoiding Bud's promoter.

Thing is with Crawford is with the PBC hiding their fighters from him he cant fight the biggest names to raise his profile and earnings. But Boxing fans can see whats going on here, Boxing fans can see Bud is the best Welter. So for Boxing fans all this is doing is turning Bud into the Welterweight Boogeyman. True Boxing fans wont hold Crawfords Welterweight record against him cuz true Boxing fans know that it is not his fault. The PBC are just playing business games in the middle of a sport and having their entire WW stable hide from Crawford in the hopes it forces him to sign up with them.

It is what it is but when i see PBC fangimps talking about how weak Crawfords Welterweight resume is it counts for NOTHING. Bud wipes out all the fighters PBC hold at the weight including Errol Kinevil Spence.

So tell me why you don't say the same thing about Jermall when he is being avoided by all the middleweights? Oh, cuz you just a PBC Hater & detractor. Got it.

Promoters will do anything to avoid putting there cash cow up against the real deal.but like the saying goes what goes around comes back around.Bud will get his due someday

AND it IS coming around now. bob has been doing it for YEARS & now its getting done to him

Yes maybe he needs to consider a switch. But he really shouldn't need to be. Haymon hiding his welters from Crawford really isn't doing his fighters or the sport any favours. Only thing benefitting is his business needs.

It should be sport over business not the other way around.

So why were you not saying that when bob was doing it? He's actually STILL doing it too. smh

I dont blame Charlo for anything. Same rules apply. If all the best Middles are with DAZN Charlo should be free to resign with Haymon and still expect to take on those DAZN fighters if he wishes to fight them.

Charlo is free to take on any DAZN fighters on DAZN should he wish to, If he wants to face those DAZN fighters on FOX or Showtime then that is just fine by everybody. But Fox or Showtime and the PBC should be ready to stump up more money than DAZN are willing to spend on the same fights. Thats how its always worked. Go to the money.

And thats the problem at the PBC at the minute. It appears DAZN and ESPN through Top Rank seem to be ready to put more money forward for these fights than the PBC is and rather than release their fighters to fight on other networks for the chance to make more money and win belts the PBC are just holding their fighters back.

Thats where the real problem is. If the PBC, Fox, Showtime outbid their competitors then there wouldnt be a problem. But they dont even attempt to all they do is block any chance of the fights happening, pretend these none PBC fighters and their belts dont even exist and go back to making inhouse fights.

Bullshet. The only fight dazn pushing for is Nelo/pvssy-g 3 and they stop every other fight from happening EXCEPT Nelo/Jacobs....& espn took away D.Wilder/fury & is now stopping Devin/l0m0.

It was the same way with Don King back in the day when he ruled all of boxing; Especially the Heavyweight division. Every black fighter knew they had to sign with Don King in order to get title shots and to fight the best fighters available.

For example, fighters like Bernard Hopkins and even Evander Holyfield understood this. I know that it's a rotten game but it's the only one in town.

When you know that one man holds all the hens in the chicken coup then that doesn't leave you with many options or much of a choice now does it other than to sign with the man holding all of the cards or risk becoming a forgotten man?

I dont know what you mean in that top line that i highlighted. Please could you tell me what you mean by that? And i hope you are not taking that down a racial route. Im sick of yank racists, im not pro black, pro white or pro anything other than Boxing when i type on this forum.

I feel like he's being sidelined by Top Rank. After the golden era, Arum's focus has been on foreign fighters. Bud made a bad move resigning with Top Rank.

It never changed. Its 1 reason Floyd fired bob.

Danny Garcia - PBC fighter - turned down $4 million + PPV for Crawfords April fight. That wouldve been a career high payday for Danny. That's a stone cold DUCK.

Send a link! & not from a hating ass youtuber.

UNCLE AL HAYMON. PBC. These are the things we are told we have to love or we are all racists. Yet it is clear that it is Uncle Al and the PBC that are blocking the sports best fights from happening to make business decisions that seem to not benefit any fighter whether they are across the road at Top Rank or DAZN or whether it is their own fighters.

Its always been about the belts, the fame and the money. PBC are getting their fighters to turn down belts, fame and money just so it doesnt help Haymons business rivals. Then they are not even compensating those PBC fighters that have just lost out. But none of it is as embarrassing as PBC chiefs pretending fighters and belts dont even exist.

Pro black? I call BS. PBC and Haymon are Pro Business and they keep screwing over black fighters to benefit the guys in the shirts and ties. You defending pro black Al Haymon cuz he is doing it for the black fighters? LOL. Haymon aint black, he aint been black for a long time. Hes business coloured and he dont care how many black man he has to sell short or roll over to do whats best for him.

But you try point out that black fighters are getting screwed over by Al and the PBC and i get called a racist lol.
