    When you have options, you are the one who dictates the terms

    Crawford is in desperate need of a big fight while Spence has a few different options in Pac, Thurman or Porter again.

    60-40 and Bud should take it if he wants the fight IMO...

      Where as, Canelo is a promotional free agent; Who is free to fight any opponent on any platform he so ever chooses. That's the advantage and the upper hand that Canelo has on Crawford.

      He is willing to cross to street to fight on the PBC but Terence can't do that because he's owned by Top Rank. He's Bob's property.

      Besides, outside of boxing fans who would buy pay per views and tickets to see and purchase a Crawford/Spence fight?
      these clowns will never willfully understand this...

      bud put himself in this position...and hes got his own promoter out here talking sheet about him...about how he loses money and he doesnt sell....thats a terrible look....plus bud has no good options on the horizon.....and spence could go out there and get pac or thurman...and maybe even canelo(dont know how true or real that could be but if hes talkin about it i guess its possible...that fight could do very well in texas)....

      these guys just dont want to accept reality...spence is in a good spot...bud isnt.....regardless of who you think wins or who is the better figther...you like bud more? you think he wins? you think hes better? ok thats fine...i wont argue with you....but accept the reality that spence is in a much better spot when it comes to sitting down at the table

        And while we are at it nobody believes you want to or will fight Canelo either. Typical PBC clout chasing and nothing more. It's all part of the marketing strategy over the at the cult of Haymon.
        Why should he? There is no money in that fight.

        It's more money fighting a Canelo than a Crawford because Ginger is a huge, mainstream and crossover star. While Bud's audience is largely marginalized among boxing fans only. He is an unknown entity who doesn't sale pay per views or put enough meat in the seats.

        I admit that a fight between Spence and Crawford would be a boxing fan's dream. However, with the Pacquiao and Canelo fights on the horizon I just don't see it happening anytime soon.

            Bud ain't gonna take 30%. Doubt he'll take 40.

                Same clowns that argued for years that Wilder should get 50% in a Joshua fight because he had a title, now saying Crawford should accept 30%. Can't people stop being ****ing hypocrites.

                    Exactly, Spence holds all the cards now. He's got potential fights with Pac, Crawford and Thurman who are all willing to fight him on the PBC.

                    Crawford lost his bargaining chip when his own promoter threw him under bus by saying that he was a difficult sell and has lost a lot of money on him.

                    That is going to hurt Bud's marketing power at the bargaining table with other fighters in future negotiations.

                    What promoter in their right mind would want to fool with Terence now? No promoter is going to be willing to go bankrupt by promoting and overpaying his worth.
