Eddie Hearn has never had a successful ppv event with American fighters or any fights in America and is viewed by every other promoter as a joke in boxing,.. He can't speak on what American fighters do in UK vs in America at the gate because he's never attempted to do it before.. you would be a fool to listen to him. Of course Eddie Hearn is gonna say fights that he's involved with and profits from are bigger than fights he’s not involved in lol use common sense...
This is why Eddie Hearn claims he was bidding on Crawford's last fight with Porter if it went to pursebid.. Terence Crawford vs. Shawn Porter: Eddie Hearn Declares He'll Make Purse Bid why would he do this for a fighter that doesn't make money?

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.

yeah one second dudes talking legacy folks ducking Bud then when Bud makes it clear it was always about money now dudes change their tone lmfao

Have you ever stopped to think maybe because Crawford vs Porter was actually a good fight? A fight people were actually asking for and somewhat wanted.

Nobody was gonna bid high on a Crawford vs Avaneseyan fight nobody wants or cares about it bro.
If Crawford don't make money then Eddie wouldn't be trying to bid on his fight with Porter.. You ever thought maybe Eddie Hearn is full of shyt like most promoters that try and down play fights they aren't apart of or do you only agree with them when it fits your narritive

I mean Crawford's fight with Porter was his highest selling PPV, ironic it took a PBC fighter to get that too. He isn't downplaying the fight he is telling the truth though if Crawford was an earner someone would have given him a deal by now. You are the only one in denial about this bruh.

Also Apparently Crawford's only getting $7m for Avaneseyan. I'm not mad at him get your money, shyt everyone wants easy licks like that we'll see if he can do it twice after this fight.

Someone has given him a deal though.. He's making $10m guarantee for his next fight.. whether it's $10 or $7m. It's still a deal
Porter being a PBC fighter isnt even relevant to the convo since the fight didn't take place on PBC and PBC put up money.. which proves they aren't looking to make the biggest fights at welterweight unless it's someone Spence is the heavy favorite to beat.. Enter Keef Thurman
