    what else is he going to say? If he said otherwise dude would get dropped off the p4p list for excessive duckage and lack of desire to really compete

      That's the move for him if he wants to enhance his bank account & legacy. Bob got this p4p discussed mfer fighting the metal robot face man once known as Kell Brook ffs.

      We need Bud vs Showtime Shawn. Bud vs Keef. Bud vs Danny. And of course Bud vs Errol. Let's do this!!!!!

        The other belt holders at 147 are with the PBC. Crawford V Spence is the big fight to make in the division and Bud has had zero luck making that fight at a Top Rank FIGHTER.

        Spence has made it clear more than once only way to make the fight is of Bud crosses the street and joins the PBC. Very strange demand which feels like it's coming from Al Haymon himself but it is what it is.

        So yeah, id prob take serious consideration to joining the cult of Haymon too if I were Bud and wanted to get anywhere near those other belts.

          It's the only way he will get fair pay and finally be able to fight the top level opponents.

          Also sets up the desired Spence fight. Because there is no Arum in the way, milking Crawford's career, at that point.

            Keef has won one fight in over 3.5 years and just lost to a 40-year old. Danny's about to catch his 3rd loss in 6 fights. Stop overrating the PBC stable. It's not 2017 anymore. Errol Spence is the only meaningful fight over there for him. They can do it with a co-promotion. Al Haymon does not care about Bud Crawford.

              Who's the guys to fight at 147 then? There are definitely prospects & unproven or less proven guys, but the guys mentioned & Manny are the money & legacy fights for Bud.

              Bud ain't getting paid or enhancing his legacy fighting Boots or Vergil. No casuals or few know who tf those two are yet.

                Word. 140 will blow up soon, and some will move up and it will just be the same story. PBC’s 147lb roster is also looking like it’s about to lose its luster real quick.

                Unless Crawford wants to be champ at 154. Now Charlo I’d be interested in.

                  he will stay at top rank, fight bums, and he will get a free pass as he has his whole career.

                    Should probably keep that to himself.
                    Arum could rob him like he did Pacquiao in the first Bradley fight when Manny was talking about leaving Top Rank to make the Floyd fight happen.
