Comments Thread For: Crawford: Don't Try To Tell Me I Have To Take Paycut Because of Pandemic!

Not sure which drink some of these guys are drinking over there.

Hate to say it Bud, but you just might have to do. There will most likely be no audience in the arena which means a loss of revenue and unless it's PPV or something, ads will only drive so much money. Enough money to pay both fighters and you want the majority? Tough to say.

I don't think any fighter can expect normal paychecks for awhile. The economy didn't just hurt them, it hurt those that would normally pay to watch them or sit in the seat. In fact, seat prices should even go down once they eventually let people back. Otherwise your only gonna see the super rich sitting in the bleachers.

Crawford

Understand this is coming from a guy that calls himself the best fighter at 147lbs having never fought a top ten fighter in that weight class. Crawford thinks more highly of himself than he actually is.

ring the chinese embassy and demand they make up the shortfall in wages for allowing this to spread around the world and not being upfront about it

As a fighter he's my man as a man he's a bit of a prat

Really like Crawford as a fighter but he’s way off here.
We’re heading into a global recession that we’ll have to handle carefully for it not to turn into a depression.
Every countries economy has shrunk by record amounts, businesses folded, people out of work struggling to put food on the table and hundreds of thousands dead.
I don’t think anyone is getting their violin out for Terrence here, badly misjudged comments to say the least.

Glad you saw it.

Hes got to 33, made himself a multi millionaire all from fighting pretty much nobody and not the greatest following. He should bow to whoever sorted that career path out or sell the secret of how hes doing it...

He'll be thinking, Why start wanting to fight more elite fighters when i don't have to..

Arum had no choice but to pay him- draw or not, bobby was hurting for elite talent at that time. Bobby didn't want another Floyd incident.

[TonyGe]

He's alienating his fans with that comment.

Historically, the person with the biggest pull, the person at the top of the tree can sometimes get away without a paycut. This isn't you, Bud.

This is a global virus, impacting all of us. Yet Crawford thinks he is above it all.

Rapidly making his way to the front of the line marked 'least likeable person in boxing.'
