Haney at least went for undisputed though. Tank is yet to step up :hubie:


fan of both (fighting wise) but keeping it a bean
And respect to him for getting it done, that has nothing to do with my point tho. Haney called out Tank for saying he was gonna fight him when he already had a fight lined up when Haney literally did the same shyt when he had TWO FIGHTS lined up

But no Guarantee for Crawford ? Some of these EJ/PBC fans boy I tell ya :russ:

Spence getting $1.5m against Ugas is disrespectful (to Spence). that fight flopped too, wonder if it broke even and Spence got more on the backend
Weren't people in here saying Crawford is a bad business man? How ?:gucci:
His guarantees against tune ups might have exceeded some of these PBC dudes total payouts from PPV. And he likely was making more then both dudes combined during the og pbc round robin days on regular tv

Devin been a free agent for years before signing that Top Rank deal and expressed interest in the Tank fight.. nothing from Tank side other than Ellerbe claiming Devin makes too much money "who gon pay him Tank a star"

Even after signing the deal.. there were contingencies.. Him and Tank coulda just fought at 140.. he was only locked into a rematch with Kambosos(not Lomachenko) and that's if he remained at 135

didnt read the last post but point is All those guys got guaranteed but Bud doesnt..and this is somehow all Crawfords fault :yeshrug:

Jus like Bob was throwing the brinks truck to Amir fukking Khan in 2019… wanted to pay Porter less than one eyed drained 2020 Kell Brook

they couldn’t afford to Pay Swift or Thurman … yet the same nikkas crying they heart out for Bud now was calling Errybody ducks for not accepting bad deals:russ:


Damn life comes at you fast

They don't even try on mandatory bids, they never extend offers to fighters "across the street" to make big fights, and they nickel and dime people who come to their side as free agents
The one time they went all out to make a fight happen they swallowed a L in the long run (canelo)
How did they go from the platform trying to fix pay in boxing to the platform that's the most trash outside of the 2-3 very top guys on the platform. no wonder TR still gets a lot of top black prospects

Yea Frank Warren pretty much confirmed Bud money was good regardless what happens with marketing or sales with that fight
Bud lowkey move like the blackest man in boxing, doing shyt on his terms and even getting good deals under TR so it's wild that these LDBC cats hate him so much
