The amount of spinning and hating coming from Al Haymon haters is insane :mjlol:

Bud AGREED to everything. To think this is anything but ducking is just straight up idiocy.

Let’s just say it was a bad faith deal with PBC (which it isn’t), you mean to tell me the next best thing was a fight against a euro trash fighter on an app who’s biggest event was Boskoe 100 vs Gonzoe?? You think they’re paying him 8 figures? :pachaha:

Here’s what happened: Bud doesn’t want this fight. He especially doesn’t want it without a tuneup. He was negotiation in bad faith with Uncle Al, and in the mean time looking for a tomato can to lineup. He approached ESPN, DAZN, and other platforms who all told him “were not paying you millions to fight some guy no one has ever head of.”

The walls were closing in, so his team of amateur businessmen closed a deal with a garbage platform, started planting stories about stalling, bad contracts and how much money he’s about to get from BLK Prime. All because he’s afraid to fight Spence. Bob Arum wasn’t lying, Bud agrees to deals, then backs out, all while not being able to generate any money.

Time for Errol to move up to 154 and leave this bum where he is.
:whew:

No guarantee is as good as saying kick rocks. But for whatever reason a lot of posters on here have this love affair with pbc. I don’t give a fukk about no network. fukk all of em. They’re all shady. Bullshyt has to be called out no matter where it comes from. fury vs wilder wasn’t even a huge fight like that. The first fight only did 300k buys on ppv. And both guys still got guaranteed money. This fight is definitely gonna do way beyond that. shyt is disgusting.

Bud has EVERY right to know all the details on the event funding if he’s not getting a guaranteed contract. I don’t wanna hear shyt about that being unprecedented. You know what else is unprecedented?…..Giving a guy no guarantee for a fight of this caliber. Even for pbc that’s unprecedented. For Terence Crawford that's unprecedented. And he still accepted. So I ain’t listening to none of that shyt. Mr. PBC himself Floyd Mayweather said weeks ago the fight is not happening. They never had any intention of making this deal. shyt is plain as day.

The love some of y’all have for Spence and PBC is comical and cult-ish.

But shouts out LDBC.

Nah

The same nikkas who wanted Swift N Thurman to accept 2 million to fight Bud … N ran around here for years talking about they scared they ducking because they turned it down … Now want fair contracts ?? FOH

Crawford wants the ability to APPROVE expenses… not jus kno the expenses APPROVE expenses… you letting a nikka who believes he’s getting 10million from Jdate.com to approve expenses for a PPV event?? :mjlol:

There is no "slated for first half '23". What fantasy world do some of ya'll live in? It's some shyt Bud put out to make it sound like he still wants the fight. They're not going through this bullshyt with Bud again. They could've done 2 more fights on PPV with Spence while they fukking around with this dude :heh:

All you Bud fans just need to consider this. Everything that was leaked or negative about this fight came from Crawfords side. That dude Blue Blood on YouTube is connected to the people promoting Crawfords next fight. Mike Coppinger from ESPN used to work for MTK who was advising Crawford.





:dead::scust:

What about Max and Andre :heh: they on Bud secret payroll too?

What are the rumors about Showtime's financial problems?
They had Fundora vs Ocampo and that's it for the fall so far?
End of October and still hasn't dropped their schedule for the rest of the year. Atp I'm wondering if they even gonna have anything.
And if they go out of boxing then who will host PBC?

I'd be mad af if they would go out from boxing just in the year I will have SkyShowtime in my country that I guess will have their boxing content too

EDIT: Forgot about Morrell vs Yerbossynuly and didn't count the 2 HW PPVs, still very thin
Seems like they are negotiating a deal will Fox and Showtime. If that goes through they will release a schedule for each network like they usually do. Spence vs Crawford would have been the biggest fight announced, so with it not happening it throws the whole schedule off too. Mayweather is fighting on DAZN so maybe they land some fighters there too. Who knows.

Wilder vs Ruiz?
Tank vs Garcia?
Charlo vs Tszyu?
Benavedez vs Plant?
