Comments Thread For: Terence Crawford vs. Kell Brook Negotiations Underway, Says Eddie Hearn

[Curt Henning]

I agree.
Crawford is my guy but I can't leave him off the hook that easily here. Obviously, if true, Thurman is out of his mind with his 10 million asking price. That being said, if Crawford and co really want the fight, while you have Thurman seated at the table, you make him a real reasonable counter offer given the current circumstances to see if Thurman will remain seated or get up and leave the table.
At the very least, use Thurman as leverage to lower Brook's asking price.

i like bud...alot....i also like several of the pbc WWs

it goes much deeper than just "the pbc WWs are all ducking crawford"...and some of these guys will say that and then excuse when he dismisses porter "well he can because hes crawford" in the next breath.....

theres alot more going on between the pbc and top rank as far as business thats stopping crawford from making these fights

bob said awhile back "i dont wanna make bud/spence till its a big fight on ppv"......and weve known bobs penchant for loving inhouse fights.....hes not going to make a non ppv fight with als guys unless he gets them cheap/below market value(not gonna happen) or he gets them under contract.......its not worth it to him monetarily...its simply not worth it to him to make a fight with danny, porter or thurman

hell pay for khan and give it a shot because of the UK audience...same with brook...but hes knows a ppv with danny, thurman, garcia doesnt sell enough and its too costly for reg TV

bob loves shouting the names of these guys knowing the fights wont happen.....when its beneficial to him...like wilder/fury 2...a fight with big buzz ....or floyd/pac....hes willing and will get it done...if its lucrative....but thats about it...

Brook will fight literally anybody. The guys got balls that’s for sure. It’s a waste of a fight but still.

Brook is lost in space since Spence loss.

He is busy fighting irrelevant 154 guys while calling out 147 champs.

Guy is delusional. Porter is the opposite.

these pbc fighters would never demand al gaymon get them 10 million to fight each other because its unrealistic yet here they are demanding that from another promoter/network. this is a perfect example of pricing yourself out in order to duck a fight. thurman only got 2 mill to fight pac but wants 10 mill for crawford. is crawford that damn scary and dangerous? LOL.

That's true. You'll never hear them yell, "IT'S A LOWBALL OFFER!"
when it comes to Haymon making fights.
None of these PBC fighters demand such astronomical amounts of money.
Haymon must have a very sweet tongue.

[Jab Jab Hook]

Post a link with it being confirmed as 7 million because Thurman hasn't said ****, and he like to run his mouth alot.

Where is your source that it was 7 mil? Because I can give you MULTIPLE sources that say it was 10 mil.

I'm 100 percent certain you ****** that figure out you ass.

Are you two using the number Bomac said because these negotiations didn't involve Bomac.

[KTFOKING]

I know I'm in the minority but I don't mind this fight, especially if it happens at 154. Brook is a sharpshooter and will be able to land some clean shots on Crawford's chin and we shall see if Crawford's chin can stand up to it or not. Don't get me wrong, Crawford will rightfully be the big favorite, Brook is better than his recent opponents...Obviously the elephant in the room is that Brook hasn't done crap since the Spence fight, but it is what it is.

Funny thing is I think y'all are underestimating Kell Brook a little bit. Yeah his best days are behind him, but he is the naturally bigger man(much bigger actually) and he has skills. If he is even 70% of what he was Crawford will get all he can handle from Brook.

Terence nor Bomac knows what Keith wanted. Neither one saw the offer. They're going on what Top Rank told them. But their next question to Top Rank should have been "Well how much would it take to get the fight done?" Or "What did you guys counter offer?"

This forum has no sense of objectivity. They ride waves. Like Porter did bad against Ugas, oh, Porter is a sht fighter, overrated, gonna get killed vs Spence. Brook hasn’t fought a name so he’s shot, and done, even though he looked plenty fine in his last fight. These tards don’t look at that, they boxrec.

And Brook having done nothing since Spence, Brook never did nothing besides beat Porter. If losses are the cutoff, then he never did nothing before Spence neither besides get wrecked by Golovkin, and if he continues his career after Crawford, it will be “Brook hasn’t done nothing since Crawford”.

Brook is the Brook he’s always been, fighting no hopers and then jumping straight to the pinnacle.
