Eddie Hearn didn't have to tell us what we already knew bruh, it's common sense. If you are an American fighter fighting in Vegas >>>>> anywhere else if you have a megafight. You're smoking dope if you think otherwise.

Only place you may have a chance of pulling in a larger live gate for a Spence-Crawford fight would maybe be at Jerry's world if you filled it up to max capacity of 90-100k people.
Been seeing plenty of Bud stans on twitter argue that his claim he made on TBV about fighting in the UK was right. A UK promoter coming out and saying it was nonsense was necessary.

And what has Eddie Hearn achieved with any of his American fighters while yall pathetically choosing to quote him when every other big time promoter has said he's a joke or views and treats him a such.

If you are being offered $0 guarantee for the biggest fight in boxing in VEGAS and the lead promotion is basically telling you and the world this fight is not big naturally you're gonna look to have the fight take place somewhere else that sees the value...

Dumb nikkas wanna use common sense for where the fight should be located but don't wanna use common sense when it comes to one side offering $0 guarantee for the biggest fight in boxing

Eddie Hearn is a UK promoter telling you what should be common sense, the fight between two American fighters will not do anywhere close to as well in the UK as it would in the US.

He's also telling you this is not the biggest fight in boxing because news flash, it isn't. If you think it's a bigger fight than Fury-Usyk you are insane. Hell even Wilder-Joshua would be a bigger fight. Talking money here not boxing significance.

The $0 guarantee makes sense given Spence also turned down a guarantee. Crawford don't make money bro, PBC not finna lose money on him just like Top Rank was. You don't see Matchroom or Goldenboy chomping at the bit to sign Crawford. He's getting what the numbers say he is worth. BLK Prime is about to lose they ass on this fight and it may end up hurting him worse in future negotiations with anyone.

Funny thing is I always said Crawford resigned with Top Rank because it was the best business decision at the time. $4m guaranteed regardless of who you fight is a good fukking deal, nobody knocked him for taking it. It's only a problem when people don't wanna be honest and act like he's really out here trying his absolute hardest to get these fights he claimed he wanted. The man was chasing an easy buck, nothing wrong with that I don't pay his bills, but don't act like he out here running towards the smoke when by now it should be very obvious he isn't.

It's very obvious which fighters truly want to be remembered and who just want paychecks, Crawford is not the former. Nothing wrong either way you go though, just be honest about which is which.

$0 guarantee for Spence only makes sense if Spence don't make money bro or if they're looking to kill a fight by also offering his opponent $0 upfront.. since you bringing up GB just ask Oscar De La Hoya Sides With Crawford, Trashes Haymon, Blames Him For Davis Vs. Ryan Stalling - Boxing News 24
Yall dont wanna talk about that though cause if Spence was the man like yall claiming he should be able to carry a ppv vs Crawford enough for both fighters to get a guarantee... Watch Spence turn down that guaranteed money BLK will offer after this fight though :sas2: this whole Spence vs Crawford aint that big narritive is what yall running with to justify that bullshyt ass offer
