Comments Thread For: Crawford: I'm The Best at 147 - I'll Fight All of Those PBC Guys

"At the end of the day, it’s not up to Bob. It’s up to me. The fighters are the ones that fight, and without us, there’s no promotion. So if a fighter really wants a fight to happen, he can make it happen. You can tell them, ‘Listen, this is the fight I want and I’m not fighting until I get that fight.’ It’s simple. At the end of the day, they work for us. " THIS tells you all who has been calling the shots, at least according to TC. He could have fought Kell Brook, but is fighting Egis... Bottom line is, Bud is NOT the best in the division...he hasn't proven that yet.

Funny that all this yippity yap is coming out a week before his fight. What a coincidence right? NOT

You’re not the best until you prove it in the ring. All that, “oh it’s not my fault...” bs is getting old. Fight them and beat them or else stfu bud

[Boris Johnson!]

he wants the top 147 guys but most are scared of losing to him so use 'side of the road' excuse

"Bob is willing to make any fight happen. At the end of the day, it’s not up to Bob. It’s up to me." - Terence Crawford

So I guess it was Crawford who didn't want to fight Pacquiao when he was at Top Rank? Sorry Bud, but you can't have it both ways! If you have that much juice, then you would've fought Pacquiao in 2015-2016! If you really wanted those PBC WWs, you would not have signed an extension to Top Rank either!

Bud Crawford is one of the best boxers of his generation. It is clear that they are afraid to fight him, but the PBC boys should put on their big-boy pants, man up, and fight Bud.

The PBC fanboys in this thread assume Crawford is referring to cross the street. How much did Arum offer Danny Garcia to fight on ESPN+?

PBC fanboys would jerk off to the idea of Crawford signing with PBC with the stipulation that he also has to relinquish his WBO. Lol.

How would Crawford even Unify his current belt upon signing with PBC if they don’t acknowledge the belt? Oh that’s right, Crawford becomes the “challenger” for a PBC Champions’ belt. LMAO

How can someone be #1 at anything without earning it?

In that case my favorite football team should be anointed Superbowl champs right now because the QB can throw 60 yard passes in straight spirals and the offence and defense look great in practice and scrimmage games.

Let's get it right and not try to rewrite history. It Pacquiao and his team that refused to fight Crawford. Arum even made a special trip to the Philippines to try to convince them to fight Bud, but Pacquiao and his team still refused. It actually was a good financial move on their part they knew that Bud would have easily beaten Manny. Pac Man's ability to command big bucks for future fights would have dropped like a stone.

Any one of those PBC Welters can face Crawford on ESPN. None of them are tied down to any network contract that i know of and none of them have to sign anything over to Arum and Top Rank. They will remain a PBC fighter. OR, if they weally weally weally want to fight on Fox under PBC promotion then make an offer.

Fact is there is nothing stopping any of those top Welterweights fighting each other. As far as im aware no actual offers have gone from either side. Maybe its time for Bob to start putting together some sweet deals. Its no good either Bob or Bud coming out saying they want all these fights, make a move. But we can all see how the PBC side of the Welters are all hiding behind that "CROSS THE STREET" crap. The word is out, none of them will fight him unless he is a signed up PBC fighter. Until then they will avoid him and dismiss him and put him to the back of their so called queue's.

Bob will have to put offers out and see who really is about it
