Comments Thread For: Crawford on Spence Fight: If It Ain't 60/40 In My Favor Fight Won't Happen

That fight died last year. I get it. After all the “get a belt” then “easy route” turned FOY, topped off with the accident and status insults I’d feel the same.
Bud’s the little guy, the fight shouldn’t be hard to make but it is.

What would be the point if he won't agree to take less of a split. He wants the Pac fight but will agree with Pac getting 20 mil while he gets half?

True...if he overprice himself, the game will just pass him by.

Dare to be great, skip Spence and go for a 4th title vs Charlo. Huge build up, crazy money, legacy enhancing fight...might lose but Crawford is 33. Got 2 years of prime left, so ditch Arum, promote yourself and take it strong to the hoop!

And bold is the problem, innit?

But NSB says that the fighter shouldn't have to promote themselves!

Problem is there's no next best opponent in Top Rank's stable. Go to Al Haymon and all these fights are gonna happen.

I'ma tell you right now. Al Haymon is NOT going to let Crawford dictate what he will or won't do, or what he will or won't accept.

If Haymon tells you to go to Radio Show X to promote, you will do it.

If Haymon says you will get 30%, you will take it happily.

We've seen it time and again, Haymon doesn't play that crap. J'Leon, Theophane, Ishe Smith, etc.

Why do you think Broner's sidelined? Because he tried to do that crap too.

But then you got guys like Jesse Vargas that seem to have ZERO issue getting fights because they follow the line. Same as Badou Jack.



If I were Crawford, I would go to Don King as crazy as that sounds. Don King likes working with Haymon, it's how Wilder/Stiverne got booked. At least there, King will happily pull the race card promoting his fighter, which will put Crawford over larger as a heel than he already is.

Crawford might be the key to getting King back on top. Can't be any worse than Arum.

Don't like this attitude from Crawford Spence is the unified champion at 147 where you fight now Bud nobody cares about what you did at 135 and 140 when it comes to negotiations this is welterweight and Spence already has a better resume at 147 than Crawford who just recently fought Spences leftovers this fight should be 55-45 in Spence's favor Crawford is going to use this as a reason for the fight not happening.

Which (everywhere but NSB) equals ducking.

Crawford is becoming a straight clown with his fake ass “p4p title” knowing damn well he ain’t p4p #1 that’s canelo and his delusional thinking that he’s actually accomplished more than Spence who clearly has the better wins over Porter and soon Garcia.

Crawford is a joke cherry picker

Just make it 50/50 and stop acting like you guys have Mayweather clout. Most people have no clue who you two are.

60/40 split to the ****IN WINNER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm sick of thIs SHYT!!!!!!!!!!

[Death_Adder]

60% to the winner.

Grow some balls already chump. Been at WW for a number of years and still hasn't fought any top welter.

[SteveM]

In a month's time all the news on here is going to be about 'over-marinated' - I'm no fan of Danny Garcia at welterweight but I have him over Spence in an upset.

[STREET CLEANER]

They will come back with 50/50 and Crawford will say that he is worth more.
