I would be down for Crawford Ugas.


Interesting fight.

Out of this list you can narrow down the real option. Crawford only fights b class or lower trinket holders, faded former champs, and bums. So Kell Brook is the only option they are looking at. Crawford will never fight a top welterweight and sadly the boxing media won't call him out on being a hype job cherry picker. His dumbass fanboys still believe he wants to fight the top guys... I bet they also believe in the Easter Bunny.

I would be down for Crawford Ugas.


Interesting fight.

100% better than Bud fighting Brook
Ugas would be a good fight

ol'bobby trick... throw out about 3-4 names, 1-2 high profile names but then ends up with weakest one and then try to trick the public by saying if crawford wins then a spence or pac fight will be next..

Unfortunately, if Brook is chosen, it's already an asterisk if he wins, because Brook was heavily damaged. Should Arum's guy lose to or even struggle with Brook he might as well retire.

Yes, I think we have all read this script before!
It's gonna be Brook and, as you say, he's damaged goods so there's already an asterisk on his name.

After that, depending on how big of a payday arum would offer, I think there's a chance Pbc might let Thurman cash out with a Crawford fight rather than have to foot that bill themselves!

C'mon Bob! Please eliminate Kell Brook from the list! He's not a WW anymore, and he's not a legend in the game like Oscar was when Manny drained him down to 147! It's a no win situation! The other 4 choices are great!

come on.....everybody knows Oscar was the clear A-side when he fought Pac. Manny didn't drain him down to 147. That was Oscar's choice.

My wish list:
Pacquiao
Thurman
Brook
Porter
Ugas

It's been Brook all along. Those other names, Bobby is just throwing out those other names out there so him and Crawford could say they didn't want to fight. Ugas, and Porter? Do you really think Bobby wants Crawford in those dangerous fights? Highly doubtful, Thurman he's in his own world now, and it seems like boxing is not the number one thing on his mind, Pacquiao is in the twilight of his career and has already proven his worth and wouldn't blame him if he passed on a Crawford fight, he has nothing else to prove, even though I think at his advanced age he would still give Crawford a run for his money. So that leaves the weakest of all these names, Brook, who hasn't fought at 147 in years and would be totally drained for that fight if it happens and Brook has absolutely not faced any top opponents in years. So if we know Bob, it's going to be Brook, and IDK how anyone would think this is a good match up.

Crawford does have a knack for picking an European opponent...
