Comments Thread For: Terence Crawford: Welterweight Division Can't Avoid Me Forever

[markther]

If I were Manny’s manager, I am doing the Crawford fight. I think Manny if he didn’t get to rusty with the layoff, can actually beat Bud. Bud gets hit a lot and Manny punches hard from several angles. If Manny can create angles, and go in and out without getting caught, or as ****m Richardson said once during a fight, “swim without getting wet,” I think Manny can win easily. I think Manny would confuse Bud and still has the power to take him out. How many of us was shocked when he dropped Thurman early and hurt him later to the body. Thurman couldn’t really get his offense off against Manny. I just have a sneaky su****ion Manny would win against Bud and totally shock everyone. I do believe, 1 crucial mistake against Bud and it’s lights out for Manny. This fight intrigues me like Fury vs Joshua.

Re-upping with TR wasn't the problem.

Re-upping with TR AND AGREEING TO BE EXCLUSIVE TO ESPN is the problem.

The PBC has been a thing since 2015 on Fox and Showtime. It's pure garbage to say fighting them wouldn't be a problem if you need them to come to ESPN.

If you're Shawn Porter or Danny Garcia or Keith Thurman, why would you go on ESPN and play B-side to a guy that doesn't draw as well as you do nor has beaten ANYBODY of note in the division.

Why would you risk alienating FOX and Showtime for a one off? And you win, who says they want you back?

There are plenty of makeable fights for Crawford, plenty of PBC guys who WILL go to ESPN with EVERYONE'S blessing for a one off and play B-side. And it's absurd that he can fight Benevidez and Kavaliauskas but not Ugas or Berto or even Broner.

So no, I don't pity Crawford. As far as I am concerned, Bud knew exactly what he was doing making it harder to make the big fights by only fighting on ESPN.

It's his bed he made and now he has to sleep in it.

Wow, ignorance at it's peak, unbelievable!

You just going to name call or make an actual point, pu55y? Just another virtue-signaling social coward, biotch?

You just described a lot of Haymon fighters...and I actually like Haymon fighters.

A lot of them are comfortable fighting soft touches, but I'm only okay with that if guys are active (e.g. fights 2-3 times a year).

I'm just starting to get pissed at that smug look on Spence's face when asked about the Crawford fight. It's just old at this point.

Yer i know the one your talking about that ****** little smirk like he knows this fight will never happen or some chit and he's just fooling all the fans. Yer i know that smug look.
Man 50/50 is what it should be.
This fight us getting to the point were fans are sick of all the talk, Spence just needs to man up and fight Bud if he believes hes as good as he thinks.

What does this have to do with Crawford and current welterweights at PBC? Take some ritalin and focus. This isn't about Horn. As far as I'm concerned, Pac beat him and was robbed in Australia. Crawford was right to not fight there.

Please, no excuses...Pac went to Horn's turf thinking easy fight, wrong. Horn loved the idea of fighting in Vegas @ MGM Grand vs a first time 147...wrong again... Terrance is the A side, P4P #1, he'll continue to call the shots and be victorious!

"At the end of the day", Manny was a warrior who went overseas to try to prove something even in failure.

Crawford is a coward that couldn't even put Amir Khan away cleanly.

Hahaha Revelated is abit special with the way his brain processes boxing.
I suppose hes always good for a laugh but i wouldnt take the guy too seriously cause hes on a different spectrum.

Arum should of never robbed Pacquiao twice (you will never convince me other wise he didn't have something to do with Bradley 1 and Horn robberies).

Then you tried to make Manny a co-main LOL even Pac said *** dat I'm out a man who is loyal to his peers.

Then why TC aint fight Brook when he called him out? Who did TC fight instead?

Is this a joke? Brook hasn't been relevant in like 5 years...Mean Machine was. 10x harder fight than Brook

What was TC excuse for not fighting Porter?

Porter has come out and publicly stated he would fight TC AFTER his loss to Spence and, since then, TC has only fought Mean Machine.

Are you upset TC didnt fight during Coronavirus when everything was cancelled? Like what the fuck?

Please explain what sense it makes signing to Arum who has no options at 147? Re-signing after the only other option left and signed with PBC who also had a issue finding good fights.

What does it matter? TC fought Khan who is with Matchroom so TC can and does fight best available competition.

I literally don't remember a time when a boxer was ducked by an entire promotional company and those boxers publicly admitted it in interviews. PBC fighters did not want to fight TC, period.

Keep in mind ANY PBC fighter COULD fight TC at any time since PBC contracts are 1 fight at a time, but they chose not to. Money ain't good? Well Danny Garcia was offered career high payday $4m + PPV and he rejected it to fight journeyman Granados for $1m flat.

TC cant make guys fight him. . . .

And Dont insult me just cuz you don't agree with me....little Btch

I didnt insult you because I dont agree with you. I insulted you because you're an idiot

“They can’t avoid me forever. But at the same time it’s a business, they wanna keep everything in-house and they have the right to do so. But at the end of the day, they’re gonna have to see Terence Crawford.” - Terence Crawford

Uhh, yes Bud, they can! None of them want that WBO belt, and that's nothing new! I can't remember a PBC fighter that defended the WBO belt in any weight class?

I agree 100%!!! He should've known better! He should've been pissed he didn't get the Pacquiao fight before Manny fought Jeff Horn! PBC lost a lot of talent, but 90% of them signed with Hearn, not Arum! That should tell us something!
