Comments Thread For: Top Rank Prez: Ramirez, Taylor Could Be Options For Crawford

[Combat Talk Radio]

Two 140lbers??

CRAW FRAUD IS THE BIGGEST FRAUD IN BOXING BEHIND ZURDO AND OSCAR VALDEZ... ALL TOP PRANK PUPPETS MADE CAREERS ON FIGHTING BUMS .... ALL 3 ARE ALLERGIC TO GREATNESS.... CANT WAIT TILL THESE 3 CLOWNS RETIRE

Let's face it, Crawford's career has been wasted and now he's already approaching 33 years old and still isn't a PPV draw. It's sad. At what point does your lack of a resume make your undefeated record look like a sham? Can you imagine Mayweather got called out for cherry-picking - Floyd had a better resume just after beating Corrales than Crawford has now at 33. Crawford is a good dude who could have been a huge star if he had just signed with Haymon instead of Bob and fought/beat Spence and all of those guys on PBC. #WastedTalent

So crawford going to fight 2 former 140 champs since they will be moving up??? Crawford been a welterweight for some time now, why isn’t this guy actually fighting 147lbs? Crawford as good of a boxer he is really overrated. He’s delusional when he talks about being the best 147lbs, Spence got wins over brook and Porter while crawford best wins are against school teacher Jeff Horn and baby chin Amir Khan??

You can’t be ranked P4P even with his weak 140 resume, he unified the 140 titles against Indungo for ****s sake hahaha

Guys, come on.
You know the story, Crawford told you.

"I just have to focus on what I can do and keep making a living and keeping my name up there as the best pound-for-pound fighter.”

PORTERS DADDY HAS BEEN BEGGING FOR A CONTRACT FOR MONTHS... ON FIGHT HUB AND FIGHT HYPE... SENDING HIM A CONTRACT IS WHAT HE SHOULD BE DOING... INSTEAD RUMORS OF HIM FIGHTING JOSESITO NEXT ARE SURFACING ON ESNEWS.... TYPICAL CRAW FRAUD

Isn't Crawford's contract with TR expires this year?

Looks like he's re-signing with them.

I like Crawford and Porter. Porters style isn’t pretty but he’s tough and determined. Porter did just lose to Spence albeit in a close one. Bud vs Porter prolly doesn’t do much numbers either, lot more risk than reward. I’d rather Bud take Porter than any of these other names for sure. But if it tanks financially it will cost both guys negotiating power going forward, which would be fair enough. Porter gives anyone a tough fight. I like Josesito Lopez, but he’s clearly a “C side” option.

spence vs porter sold 300k ppv and did a $3 million dollar gate.. plus Tv rights in over 100 countries and sponsors... both probably got around 8 to 10 million each.. NOT BAD.. Thats a lot of cash! Craw fraud just wants to fight bums! Thats all he wants to do!

I read Mikey v Spence did 360k buys, and Spence’s purse was $3million, with another $5million coming from his ppv cut. With his $2 million purse vs Porter and 300k buys. I wouldn’t expect $8-$10million being paid out to either or let alone both fighters. Unless they somehow managed to negotiate a much bigger cut from the buys in a fight that did %20 less sales. After all the advertising, venue, and other expenses, that’s not a lot left if even at all. Don’t get me wrong those are great paydays for the boxers. But maybe not for everyone else involved. I’m frustrated that Crawford hasent had the big fights, I’m not sure who is to blame. Do u think Crawford is not a great fighter? Or just really overrated? He will lose to the top guys? I mean if ur right, u can understand why he wouldn’t make the fights then at least. I appreciate people calling him out, try and put the pressure on to get something meaningful done.

Bud needs dance partners and they are over at PBC. Let's do business like Fury vs Wilder. Share the $$$.
