Crawford is being treated great imo. Dude is looked at as a top 3 p4p guy and never had a 50-50 fight or faced a real threat. Plus TR made him a hometown attraction. Arum doesn't do that for everybody. Just ask the Peterson brothers. He better of staying loyal.

Mall seems like a guy that likes boxing and fighting, but he seems to be resting on his laurels right now. The internet hasn't created another Jrock for him to dragon punch yet so he prolly chilling cuz of that and being a mando.

Yep

People don’t realize just how good TR has done with him, because they feel he should be a bigger star.

People have to understand that you have a guy that doesn’t promote, and doesn’t particularly have entertaining fights. He made 3 million in his last fight.

nah it's not that how big of a star he is
it's just him being in 147 which is a Showtime/Haymon dominated division so it would be reasonable to him to jump ship now, loyalty is good but boxers only have a limited time to make a career and besides that I don't even think changing promoter/network is necessarily a treachery, it's just like changing workplace.

But as I said I understand why he doesn't do it, it would be near impossible and he could be forced to inactivity if he tries.

With Charlo however I think he should just dip, as the recent Jacobs example shows he could even keep Haymon if he wants if he goes to HBO

Spence can't even get the fights @147 against the other fighters in the PBC stable and is getting his prime wasted fighting once and 2x per year, so Crawford shouldn't really feel any pressure to jump. Just look at this dumb shyt, if this fight is being pushed to 2019 then this should be scrapped and he should be getting the winner of Porter/Garcia, but since boxing is retarded Porter/Garcia will likely need a "tune-up" first. Boxing gotta do better than this man.

Agree with you on leaving unless he's comfortable sitting on the shelf. At this point I just don't think Showtime has the budget/dates for all these guys, hopefully there is truth to this rumored Fox deal and it pays enough to keep these guys busy because buzz and momentum is being wasted. Jacobs bounced and is gonna have his 3rd fight in a year and an opportunity at a real belt, don't know how Charlo can see that from the sidelines and not think about making a move.

And this aint true, If Spence wanted Thurman, Swift or Porter, all the man had to do was take the test and get on the WBC fukking rankings......Being that he didnt he's content on fighting the Ocampos of the world.....

Spence held his belt out there as bait for all the 147 PBCers, he had a voluntary defense before fighting his mandatory, Garcia fought Rios, Porter fought Granados, take your dumbass opinions elsewhere fam, your angel dust feuled takes are played out.
