Comments Thread For: Crawford To Arum: "Release Me Now And You Don't Have To Lose Money No More"

[Curtis2]

Nonsense.
With a TV deal with ESPN, a Todd Dubeouf ready and groomed for the throne, and big names in his stable... nothing will happen to top rank.
Given his experience and popularity, Bob is a good face for his company at this point.

I disagree with some of his practices, but he is a good face

TV Networks and big names in the stables will have serious concerns why this underserving rhetoric from Arum has been spewed toward the P4P #1.... Poor business practice from someone who knows better !!

Bud does not have any leverage, he just is does not have drawing power. Manny will make his last fight against who can draw the most money in and that is not Crawford.

Some may very well take this position.

Some may take the position of, "That has nothing to do with me. As long as I'm getting paid, Bob and I are good."

Yeah, Pacquiao is way too old at this point to face Crawford. Win or Lose, I see Pac facing someone like a Mikey Garcia for his last fight.

Then again, I'm not sure if you can technically or legally shelve a champion.


Then again you can begin a long drawn out litigation process that carries you to the date of the contract expiring, thus executing your intended plan.


Either way, bad move by Bud.

Furthermore, further furthermore, triple furthermore

He will fight out his contract just like Cotto and Oscar did. Top Rank has 11 months to produce a big fight.

Yeah. I probably could've structured that better.

Arum not ******...... It's like telling you Wife u never needed her once u find out she thinking about divorcing you.

That's probably exactly what's going on. Not sure Crawford needed to respond like he did, but I hope he is able to part ways.

He's got to promote like..

Yeah. I probably could've structured that better.

Just reminded me of a funny clip from Frank Caliendo and Stephen A Smith. The furthermore stuff comes in around the 4:20 mark in the video.
