So what’s Crawford excuse now with not having a decent fight lined up this first half of the year. There isn’t any rumors or rumblings of him trying to fight anybody.

He can make some noise his damn self. But instead he would rather help train glass chin Khan. Honestly Bob prolly was the best thing to happen to him.

bud fans be sounding crazy as hell when they try to hate on Spence to cover Buds inactivity lol. Literally only reason Spence dont fight was for life altering injuries, Bud just sitting at the crib tweeting.

if he was serious about not waiting on Spence instead of fighting porter he woulda went to 154, fought Tim Tsyzu and put himself in position for the Mel vs Castano winner, this would still yield him a shot at two weight class undisputed.

Yea big facts even tho I think Spence and PBC is not in a rush to fight him he ain’t doing jack shyt to keep his name in the mix. I think he capping about 154 too. He talking like he can just walk up and get a shot at the unified belt. I think he like to hear hisself talk and he likes to price himself out to make it even worse. If he wouldn’t price himself out I know Hearn would atleast get him a decent fight on DAZN to keep his name ringing.

im sure he can activate a WBO mandatory thats why i mention him fighting Tim Tsyzu. It aint like Bud dont gave a belt like say Benevidez. If you got a belt you kinda got options if folks dont want to unify (move up and get another belt or climb the rankings for other belts to force a mandatory).

these dudes are NOT floyd or Canelo where they can do what they want and people show up. Casuals dont know who Bud is and he had a major tv deal with ESPN, thats an issue.

He didn’t even mention activating the mandatory tho. I guess he expects the champ to want to fight him all the while he will be expecting a career high purse. Dude be moving like a clown sometimes. But I will hold judgment until the end of the year. Maybe he surprises us.

bud is out of his element. He a good boxer but doesnt get the business what so ever. Because of this it makes people not want to root/care because he moves like a dummy. He has zero personality so it aint like he can draw in people organically like other fighters and he aint a Brit or Mexican where a whole ethnic group sill support him no matter what.

boxing is an expensive hobby and most black folks care about sports with larger reach like football and basketball

How much nikkas wanna bet Mell knocks Crawford out cold on some Jorge Cota shyt. That mans defense is way too leaky to get in there with a legit puncher with an iron chin like Mell bruh. This gonna be some easy ass money to make. :mjlit:
Crawford is an actual puncher lol....prolly more than Mell :heh:

.

he just fought 4 months ago, is in the process of leaving his former promoter with a lawsuit involved, and apparently is getting low balled by the platform yall want him to go to :what:
give the mofo some time to iron shyt out during arguably the most important period of his career. a lot of stuff with unfold in April which will be around 6 months of inactivity allowing breh to potentially line something up in summer or fall depending on how shyt pan out (worse case)

As a Crawford fan I gotta say homie has had the easiest path to a HOF career I've ever seen. Son is legit 2 fights away from being the first ever 3 time undisputed champ while Spence n jermell beating the rest of the Champs one by one doin all the heavy lifting. Bob arum was a blessing for him on the low. Crawford taking all the credit but none of the blame.
