People are turning on Crawford in the comments after this too


One of my favorite things in boxing is when you have a fighter, that has showed the eagerness to fight anyone in the past, are eventually asked questions about a certain fighter, the hey hit the :whoa: "it's gonna make sense" button.

It's just interesting what fighter makes them bring out that sort of reaction.

This is something damn near every fighter does. It just let's us know what fight they don't like, at least at that point in time.

Smh.. Crawford been looking real stupid in interviews the last few months

I don't understand what the fukk it is he wants ?

Like you don't want to face the best competition currently available to you...but you also don't want to face any criticism that comes with taking that route....

A few days late but goddamn @ Jacobs only paying Andre Rozier $100k from a $15M purse, no wonder Rozier hates that nikka's guts now
Still stinging, ex-trainer Andre Rozier didn’t watch Daniel Jacobs’ fight with Julio Cesar Chavez Jr

From the Hannibal Boxing story: Rozier said he received a check in the mail for $100,000, when he was originally due for five percent of a purse that was reported to be as high as a $15 million.

“He sent it to me without an explanation,” Rozier said to Nam. “Besides the fact that he treated me like I was nowhere near family to him, it’s the biggest slap that anybody could ever give a trainer.

“So I just said, ‘I can’t, I can’t.’”

And on fight night, as he hears that Fareed Samad will corner his kid — check that, Danny, someone who used to be his kid — it is clear that more time will need to pass for trespasses to be forgiven.
@krackdagawd got any insight?

Merry xmas everyone

Porter coming off a LOSS folks
I can understand him not being pressed for that fight depending on how much money Porter demanding :yeshrug:
He probably won't get any credit for beating Porter and tons of criticism if god forbid he goes life and death like Spence did
That being said he might as well take the fight cause what other options does he have
Arum and haymon seems to be all with making it so it's all on Crawford at this point

Are you high dikkey

All SP matches against PBC best in Thurman, Garcia and Spence were all disputed matches on way or the other......TC dominates SP and he could hold that card over all the other PBC fighters, as Porter is looking like the Welter weight boogeyman.....



Logic doesnt make sense when you being a hoe out here, or dikkriding for that matter:hhh:

How is Porter the PBC Boogeyman when everyone top tier fights him and beats him :what:
Only Danny ate that L :ufdup:
Porter was supposed to be LIGHT WORK for Spence coming off the bad Ugas performance.
Let's be real here Porter is basically a measuring stick fight at this point, nothing more. No one here thinks Porter has a chance at unifying titles or holding a belt for any significant length of time :martin:.
I think Crawford should fight him but he's right when he says it nothing for him there :manny:

I don't think Crawford wants to fight Porter, because once Porter figures out Bud's average at best defense, Crawford won't be able to physically dominate him like he has done everyone else who figured out how to get to him. Also Porter legit might beat Bud's ass. Bud aint ever been in a fight with someone who can be just as physical as him when he needs to be.

Crawford is hell bent on keeping Gamboa as his best win. :mjlol:

Yeah Porter coming off a loss, but it was close loss where most people thought the knockdown made the difference. Nothing wrong with that fight unless you don't think you can win or do as good as the PBC guys did.

He needs a performance against a known top guy that people can compare to, especially if he plan on making bigger fights. If you truly p4p 1 an on another level, you'll dominate Shawn and call out everybody else afterwards. That interview was a bad look. Bud stay blowing opportunities to make his case.

Imo(not including Manny or Spence cause those fights aint happening soon) I think Danny could KO Bud as well. That shot Mean Machine countered Bud with, Danny would have put him on his ass, idk if post injury Thurman could, but pre injury Thurman would have as well. Bud aint shown me anything at 147 to tell me he should be the betting favorite over the other top dogs in the division, and a part of me thinks there are certain fighters who could expose him.
