Not on ESPN...only on the new app for $5 a month brehs...same night as LSC v Mares 2

yeah that's shocking!
Crawford is one of their major names, probably 2nd biggest TR fighter or 3rd if I count Pacquiao and they are doing him like this

It's cool that they are down with streaming, it is indeed an important element today to capture young audience too cause millenials are not really into TV anymore but ONLY showing on that app is fukking dreadful. It would be good if people could watch this on the stream AND on ESPN too not only the app.

How is this fight not must see though......

Yall fakkits have anointed TC after beating not one name worth noting.......How could yall not want see Horn vs a High Level fighter; after boxing the shyt out of the ATG Manny; no lucky punch shyt straight handz's


Give Horn his fukking respect; he stood tall to all Manny had to offer; even in the Floyd match who's chin is tested and can be held up to all the greats; Manny showed he still could change a fight with one punch..Horn put himself in the blender rounds 9-10 trying to not only win but win emphatically, he was going for the stop in Mannys best round.........Chill with the disrespect

Horn is only known to the public for getting a gift as well as a beating in that Manny fight... no one but a Floyd stan and/or somebody that dislikes Pac thinks Horn won that fight..he wasn't impressive in the least.
Horn's fight against Corcoran after that also wasn't impressive. The ones who did watch that on a weekday morning don't talk about for good reason. It wasn't an impressive fight It was more of the same..rough shyt and headbutting by a weight cutter.

Crawford-Horn should be on regular ESPN to get the audience that a Lomachenko had or even an Oscar Valdez..then if Crawford performs to that level and beats on Horn like everyone expects put him on ESPN+ with a welterweight heavy hitter

Where is all the heat for Arum. People had a lot to say about Floyd as a promoter this past week.

Arum, coming off Crawfords "biggest" (nothing to do with Indongo as an opponent) win, does nothing with Crawford.

Announces the fight for Vegas, then switches it to New York, then switches back to Vegas again. A few weeks before the fight there is no announcement, no press conference, no fight poster, no tickets on sale...


Then puts Crawford on a PBC/Showtime date, and on a subscription service.

Arum is one of the top promoters with one of the top fighters he could push...yet he's not. In fact his last two fights had almost 0 promotion.

He still did 1.2 Mill vs Indongo (ESPN)
Diaz 1 Mil (HBO)

Crawford continues to shine in spite of being promoted terribly.

I sure Bob is personally making sure Bud got clean towels N fresh handwraps in camp tho...he cares bout his fighters unlike other promoters

He does. Paid off Pacquiao's taxes, making Loma into a 3 division champ in under 14 total fights, and saved Floyd from getting his head bashed in by J Prince


He's not going to match Terence Crawford up with Jermell Charlo after Horn just because he's mad at Crawford....he's too professional to let his emotions effect his business


Instead, he'll let Crawford fight weak after weak opp, building his brand into what is today..........to the point where Mayweather even points and says "Crawford is the best fighter on the planet" with the resume he has today devoid of any A level names

What year was this? Usyk must have been pretty small and young. Damn Porter was 160 in the amateurs.

His first handful of pro matches were at lhw

Somebody from TR, Bud, or his camp is in her guts you cant tell me otherwise

Lets not act like this was Manny Bradley; my whole house had Horn up a round or 2; and I was rooting for Manny hardbody here.....

 

[ChocolateGiddyUp]

He does.


He's not going to match Terence Crawford up with Jermell Charlo, a fighter above his division, after this fight just because he's mad at Crawford.


Instead, he'll let Crawford fight weak after weak opp, building his brand into what is today..........where Mayweather even proclaims Crawford the best fighter on the planet with the resume he has today devoid of any a level names

You mean like how TMT gave tank weak opp like that UK cac?? N Then right after ANOTHER weak opp on the biggest PPV ever to look good af N build his name N brand


Only to have Tank miss Weight...lose his belt N look like shyt... then cry on Twitter cuz he needs a hug N nobody loves him after??


We've seen how Arum treats his fighters who dont make weight N lose they belts N fight like shyt...he cashes them out or tries to... then puts them on the shelf

I see the ring brehs ain’t keeping that same energy with champs fighting champs

This generation never fights each other
AJ and Wilder never gonna to fight!!!

This generation never fights each other
GGG and Canelo need to fight again!!!

This generation never fights each other
Pacquiao and Floyd waited too late to fight!!!

This generation never fights each other
Floyd and Tank scared of Loma!!!?

Floyd: Ok, they’ll fight then
Why Floyd rushing Tank?
Floyd setting Tank up by making him fight Loma.

Right, same people saying Tank too young for Loma will be the same ones saying Tank and Floyd waited until Loma was old and out of his prime if they held off from fighting Loma for another 3-4 years .

Firstly IDGAF about no Johnny Cochran so........

Trust me I didnt want the great Manny Pacquaio to lose to no fukking Jeff Horn; but he got controlled with the jab, out hustled, ate some brutal counters that had him on jelly legs numerous times throughout the fight; I saw Horn making Manny go through the motions; acting like he was playing because he was frustrated getting his ass whooped out here, then trying to flip the on the switch and still struggling, and I saw Horn playing with his ass circling to Manny Power hand rounds 9-10 intentionally trying to land a straight right(the jmm) in the midst of Manny wild shyt and nearly got his head knocked off from it; shots that buzzed FMJ, Cotto, retired Margarito Oscar and Manny still couldn't finish the job with Horn fukk up....One round where no ass touch the mat, and both guys are swinging doesn't change a fight

Must be something wrong with your eyes; were u watching the fighting in the midst a sand storm u dirty Nigerian fukk boy
