        Crawford doesn't seem like the type of dude who's interested into much of the politics and economics of the sport, so he should just go let Al Haymon make him more money than he's made in his life before he retires.

          Whilst Hearn probably is the best actual promoter at the moment, especially for someone like Bud who isn't that much of a self promoter/big talker, that wouldn't change the fact that the names he wants are primarily PBC fighters it seems.

            I don't think Crawford lacks a good marketable persona, it is just that his match ups 'Well he has had no dance partner'.

                  That was basically Hearn's point though, Bud is marketable he just hasn't been properly promoted.

                  If he had been better promoted and more of a cross over draw, the financial incentives would mean its easier to get the dance partners.

                    Crawford should do whatever he feels is best for him.

                    However, I'm over this idea that no one wants to fight him. Plenty of people will fight him. The owner of his professional contract isn't allowing him to and he isn't forcing the issue either.

                      They all fight anyone except Crawford.

                      Danny has fought Guerrero, Thurman, Porter, and soon Spence.
                      Porter has fought Brook, Berto, Thurman, Danny, Ugas, and Spence.
                      Thurman has fought Guerrero, Porter, Danny, Josesito, and Pacquiao.
                      Spence has fought Brook, Mikey, Porter, and soon Danny.
                      Pacquiao will literally fight anyone worth a headliner.

                      Crawford? Khan, Horn, Brook, Benavidez, some nobody.

                      Everyone seems to be willing to fight all the other top guys except Crawford mate.
