    Some tidbits from the podcast:

    -Count Crawford as a Covid19 truther. Is not afraid one bit of the virus and still lets his kids go out and said the virus only hurts those that are elderly and have underlying conditions. Doesn't understand why some people still work while others don't and he needs some answers.

    -If there are no fans in the stands, he will not fight, or will demand more money up front. Said if he's not getting gate revenue, then he needs to get compensated in another way.

    -Has talked to Spence a few times via text and face time. They will fight but have to be compensated properly. Thinks their fight is much bigger than Wilder vs Fury.

    -Said he will not fight Spence right away and told Spence to take another fight beforehand. Bud doesn't feel he will get credit for fighting Spence after the car accident and wants to see him return to form before fighting him. Thinks he will get a lot of backlash if he hurts Spence badly as the fans will kill him since Spence should never have been fighting and was permanently injured etc.

    -Has Brook and Teixeira as an option for his next fight. Will looks hard into taking either fight if the fights are presented to him.

    -Doesn't think Wilder is going to be able to do anything with Fury in the third fight as Fury just has his number. Thinks Fury getting up from the KDs in the first fight gave him the confidence he could take Wilder's punches and from that point on there is just nothing else Wilder can do to get the upper hand.
    Thanks for the summary. Don't think their fight would do anywhere near as well as Wilder Fury 2 PPV wise.

      People have died in their 20’s with no pre-existing health conditions. Crawford is either ignorant or just plain dumb in regards to this virus man, he needs to educate himself on it immediately.

      He should definitely fight Texiera over Brook. Brook is shot and can’t healthily make 147.

      Hopefully this Spence fight actually happens, both fighters genuinely want it IMO. Hopefully it can happen in 2021.

        You’re probably right, it would likely still do very well but it’s not as big as Fury-Wilder 2. Neither Spence or Crawford have the charisma of a guy like Fury or even Wilder to help promote and sell the fight.

          Yeah, I don't see that happening either. But Spence has pretty much done on par with Wilder on his two PPVs, minus of course the Fury rematch. If it does less than 500-600k buys, then it is a disappointment.

          Dude legitimately made it seem like there is some conspiracy going on and this a hoax SMH. Young people have died from this virus and it can impact anyone. Bud is definitely acting very ignorant and flat out irresponsible.

            The bad thing is he isn't alone. I've talked to people with the same sentiment and they seem stuck on believing it's exaggerated. It's crazy. They need to look at that procession of military vehicles in Italy carrying the corpses away to be cremated.

              Just thinking about it, if Spence manages to get a fight with Pacquiao that could be massive in establishing him as a PPV draw and in turn would grow the Crawford fight. Hopefully Bob can pull a rabbit out the hat and get Crawford a legit opponent for 2020, I love the idea of Crawford-Porter.

              I lot my casual friends were genuinely interested in Fury-Wilder, I’m not sure Spence-Crawford will have that same kind of reach. It’s the fight I most want to see in boxing though.

              Yeah it’s crazy man, at first I had my reservations about the seriousness of this virus but it’s clearly a matter of global urgency now. It’s killed near 10,000 over here around double that in the US I think and then over a 100k worldwide. I don’t think Bud is the brightest spark tbh, luckily for him he’s a genius between the ropes though...😂

                While the elderly are going to be the ones being hit the hardest, Crawford is wrong in thinking those young and healthy can't be impacted by the virus. And while Crawford or his kids may be fine, they can potentially give the virus to Bud's mom or grandparents and they may not be as lucky.
                Agreed on all points. Virus can definitely impact younger people too but it's not as common and usually involves underlying medical conditions.

                Gotta specifically watch for SOB and fever as they can indicate infection/pneumonia which is ultimately the killer in this virus

                And the quarantine is exactly as you stated..to stop the spread. So its definitely negligence on TCs part but most of the time boxers arent the smartest people in the room..

                  Fugh me , go figure
                  You’d think people like him , who are some sort of celebrity, would actually have the right attitude towards all this chit
                  Or even the right explanation to what this virus really is
                  Even if one of his fans were to listen to his thinking , that’s just wrong as a whole

                    Yeah, I mean a younger person who is healthy is going to have a much better chance of beating the virus. But thing we don't know is the long term effects of the virus. Too early to tell on that. Another thing, a person may think they are healthy, but they can have a potential irregular heartbeat or issues like they that they weren't aware of. Depends on how often a person takes their physical and does blood tests.

                    Oh for sure. My work is considered essential so I've still been going but it is amazing how many, including fairly older people are not taking this serious. I've probably used more hand sanitize in the last month than I have in the last four years combined LOL.

                    Yeah, casuals definitely know Wilder/Fury more than Spence/Crawford. I still think they need to do over 500k buys or else it is a bad look. And will ESPN/FOX continue doing co-PPVs with that low of a buy rate? I mean I guess it depends on the digital buys as they count more for those networks but they will have to look hard in if all the promotion they do is worth or it or not.

                    For sure, and it is actually pretty obvious to see when someone takes over Bud's twitter since you just know it isn't him posting LOL. Most of these boxers are like this. They can fight their a$$ off, but definitely not the brightest. It was just very reckless in what Crawford was saying. And not sure what kind of answers he is looking for from the government?

                    Yeah, I think overall most do take this serious but definitely not something you want to hear from a celebrity. Mannix seemed a bit perplexed and didn't really know what to say. Hopefully Crawford smartens up and understands the severity of the virus.

                      Especially since African Americans are dying at almost twice the rate.
