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

[batista84]

I think Crawford is a great fighter, I think he's got great skills, the problem I got with him is that since 4 fights ago he's fought very low level opposition.

IMHO he should not be ranked Top 3 P4P anymore.

Horn, Benavidez, Khan and Kavaluskas should not give you the right to proclaim you top guy in the sport.

And how he is asking for his same paycheck? Crawford doesn't sell tickets, I think Bob Arum is gonna have a problem with him because he's get used to getting paid well for beating low level opp.

If you ask me honestly I could care less if he sits on the bench forever, If he is not fighting a top Welter then good luck to him.

Edit: At least Spence is fighting top comp.

That's really going to endear fans to him...

No fight, no dollars.. the biggest pay cut you can take.. not very bright are you Terry?

With an attitude like that especially at this time, the Paying viewers turn and don't buy, you may end up taking a bigger cut than you think........

Crawford struggling with basic economics!

I like him but he's starting to get on my nerves with this entitled attitude. He's still yet to fight anyone that would make for a great PPV.

LOL the entitled little snowflakes is plaguing society. Terrence is what 33?? Either fight now and make some money or sit out for a few years on your little pay cut strike lmao you can come back when youre 36 and fight.

Toprank is almost at the bottom with cornhole on the espn rankings, and Crawford is not selling ppv

So listen. I’m with TC on this. promoters are trying to take advantage of the pandemic to cash in extra bucks just like the UFC is doing. Live gate is a small percentage of revenue for PPV fighters. Add to that PPV will be up due to no one can actually attend that will at the least in part make up lost gate revenue or even eclipse it. Crawford should fight a decent opponent if he wants to get paid fighting one legged fighters and taxi cab drivers while calling for top dollar is more the issue here

If he won't fight, strip the belts and put the two top contenders in the ring.

Well, if that's his decision, and he's entitled to it, no fights for TC until top rank are able to pay his guarantee. He says he's prepared to sit these restrictions out so it is what it is . . . .
