    This is the typical lowball tactic...

    Like when Hearn offered Wilder a flat fee.

    Sadly this fight ain’t gonna happen.

    Bob has given up on Crawford I think, I expect them to part ways soon.

      What exactly is Porter worth? I'm not sure that during Covid times he's worth a great deal more than a million. We can all make up BS figures for unproven back end money.

      He made 1.5 million (proven) money and then 39 billion (unproven) back end money from uncle Al. We can all lie when it can't be proven.

        Everyone's always complaining about Bob Arum's offers, but what about the other fighter's and their teams offers?

          It’s a non-issue

          Porter can force the fight

          Arum may not want it but it’s out of his control

          If this fight doesn’t happen, it’s because Porter didn’t force it to

            Porter turns down the fight = Crawford is ducking. That's what this forum is about.

              Porter was winning and on a hot streak and had a little bit of hype.

              I don't rate NSB posters as an authority, I fade NSB to be honest. I did a lot of trading in private ******* communites over the last 15 years and NSB been an ongoing joke for well over a decade.

              A lot of people think Pacq beat Floyd here, does that make it remotely valid? No, Manny lost by a landslide.

              How did he come out better than he went in? He's getting 1 mill offers now!
              Porter was not going into that fight with extra hype. People knew it would be a test cuz of his toughness but that's it. The story was if Spence could stop him and how impressive it would be.

              And he looks better after that fight obviously, he gave Spence his toughest fight and almost won. Before that, his loss to Ugas was kept being brought up... Now people don't even bring it up now.

              It's like u saying stuff just to be right....

                Bob Arum's a greedy POS but I don't really think he cares very much where the money comes from.... He'll screw you just the same if you're black, white or hispanic, his loyalty lies with whoever has the most earning potential at any given time.

                  Porter is not asking for $10 mil dollars but $1 mil is unacceptable. Like Thurman said, you get what you pay for. One million got you mean machine and 2 mil got you Kell Brook.

                  Maybe we're boxing fans who want to see Bud in a decent fight?

                      I want to see it too. Rather see Bud against Thurman TBH. Think that's a better fight. But unless there are crowds, you aren't going to see massive purses for regular cable. It's why Teo got paid more out of Loma's purse, because Bob wouldn't budge on the money. I doubt Crawford is going to take less money though, he was one of the guys adamant that pandemic didnt mean pay cut.
