I'm assuming LMW = 154 and no, the man has every intention on gunning for undisputed at 147 before he moves up. All I heard is a rumor that Danny, Pacquiao, Crawford is turning into Danny, Crawford, Pacquiao.
That tweet he put out a few weeks ago about Manny not wanting to fight him almost confirmed the rumor to me as well that he is gonna force the issue again, just like he did when he had to go force a fight with Brook when Thurman, Danny, and Porter was giving him the run around, and go fight Crawford and make the money for a Pac fight too good for Pac to pass up.
What's funny is that if GGG a fraud, that makes Canelo look even worse since he had to wait the fraud out so he can get a lil older and more battle worn, had to cheat against the fraud with PEDs, had to fight that fraud again because he got a gift from that same fraud in their first fight, has his only memorable fight with that same fraud in the rematch, has a bunch of other fights afterwards that nobody cared about, only to run back to that same fraud next year for the 3rd fight.
That type of hate is why Canelo got away with all the shyt he's been doing. At least Pac n Floyd fought other deserving top contenders when they were ducking each other. Canelo played UK career mode until he unlocked son of a legend mode and played that too. You had nikkas rejoicing any time that first GGG fight was postponed. nikkas would act like Oscar was some sort of saint during negotiations and that GGG should take whatever is offered.
Funny how history repeats itself and now Crawford taking that Canelo blueprint and doing it even better
August 28 DAZN Show Featuring Javier Fortuna Postponed
By Jake Donovan

The hunt continues for a new opponent for Javier Fortuna.
So, too, does a new fight date to go along with the occasion.
A planned August 28 DAZN show featuring the former secondary 130-pound titlist from Dominican Republic will no longer move forward, three sources with intimate knowledge of the development informed BoxingScene.com. Fortuna was due to face former three-division titlist Jorge Linares (47-5, 29KOs), who was forced to withdraw on August 7 after testing positive for COVID-19. The inability to secure a replacement opponent in time prompted the DAZN brass to move off of the date, according to sources.

News of the postponement was first reported by ESPN.com’s Steve Kim.
The targeted bout between Fortuna and Linares—which was to have aired live on DAZN from a crowdless Fantasy Springs Resort Casino in Indio, California—was to establish a future title challenger for reigning World Boxing Council (WBC) lightweight titlist Devin Haney (24-0, 15KOs)—who also happens to be without an opponent for a planned voluntary title defense this fall. Fortuna (35-2-1, 24KOs) currently serves as the mandatory challenger, though was willing to risk that position versus Linares while Haney was granted an optional title defense by the sanctioning body for his first fight since recovering from shoulder surgery.
Linares accepted the fight after moving off of a targeted showdown versus unbeaten contender Ryan Garcia (20-0, 17KOs). The two appeared on the same DAZN card this past February in Anaheim, California, scoring knockout wins to set up what was hoped to have been a summer showdown. The ongoing coronavirus pandemic played a role in delaying those plans, although such a fight was never quite far along as was suggested in previous reports.
Garcia will now face England’s Luke Campbell (20-3, 16KOs) for the WBC interim lightweight title, while Fortuna is suddenly left without an opponent or secured fight date. Golden Boy Promotions—who doesn’t promote Fortuna but agreed to keep him on the card in the main event—scrambled to find a new opponent, though the options presented were deemed unacceptable by DAZN, according to sources.
Fortuna has been out of the ring since a 2nd round knockout of Jesus Cuellar last November. He has now seen two separate fight dates fall through due to COVID-related reasons. Pre-pandemic plans called for a vacant title fight versus Campbell on April 17 in Oxon Hill, Maryland, with the entire show canceled due to the initial wave of the ongoing global health crisis.
Sources inform BoxingScene.com of tentative plans to reschedule the August 28 show for mid-to-late September. Such plans, of course, remain dependent on an acceptable main event being in place.

Old boy who is plugged in to Thurman camp on NSB said it was $3m plus incentives. Where did $10m come from? That number don't even sound believable.
Why do nikkas always automatically believe anything that come out of Bob, Bomac, and Crawford mouths, how many excuses and how much backtracking do they have to do before we don't believe them anymore?

That's why I said just wait, Spence handles Danny, he should be handling Crawford right after that.

If 10M is correct...3M guarantee Plus PPV split
V AB one of the biggest draws did 400k V Thurman did 500kKeith is a draw... if Khan got 7 with PPV to do 150K... Keith can definitely get them buys to 300k but you gotta pay for that shyt... Bud ain’t a draw for shyt which is why Bob was
