He's probably right in this one but imo his viewership numbers don't nearly match his social media buzz. Interesting cause one would think a guy with soc media buzz like Davis would sit more asses in front of the TV but he doesn't get outstanding ratings. That has something to do with his level of opponents too I guess but still it's odd.
Maybe it's because lots of his fans are young people who don't really watch sports, especially boxing like that but just follow Tank on Instagram because of other stuff or Mayweather fans who follow him by proxy.

How he gonna do that if PBC has no interest letting it
They are happy to have 90% of the 147 top fighters they not about to give the rival's fighter a chance to beat their guys, you can't be serious blaming Crawford for this. You can say "why he re-signed with Top Rank then?" (do we know if he had other offers? do we know if he had any other choice (see Mikey's case)? He got good money too) but the halves should be blamed accordingly how much they are in control.
Crawford probably only gonna fight the more important PBC guys when the PBC guys finished with each other, hopefully next year and if he beats Spence/Porter/Pac/Thurman or whoever comes out winner of the PBC tournament then nobody can say nothing about his resume and who he beat anymore. :yeshrug:
