This was answered in the press conference, when Lou Dibella said both Adrien Broner & Mikey Garcia are bigger than Terence Crawford
Like I told @HeruDat & @Mr. Leonidas: If anything, it's Crawford who needs to be planning to fight the winner afterwards, because....as far as we've been told per Arum himself, the only goal is for Crawford to go after unifying the entire division. So being that neither AB or Mikey will have a Championship after the fight, I expect Crawford to go after one of the lesser fighters w/ a belt at 140 instead of AB/Garcia.

For I am death and I ride on a pale horse
This perplexed me at the time as well with the GGG situation .Didn't they pull this same stunt with GGG and Danny Jacobs...... only to crown the winner of Murata-N'Dam the WBA "regular" champion AFTER
In this case idk......... I hope Yunier does find a way to enter the cruiserweight tournament.

I know but ab n mikey were quiet. plus I don't think mikey bigger than craw....especially currently. craw has had better numbers vs no names.
all three have said they are open to it before in future so its no need to ask imo.
u don't remember the interview where bomac said they wanted broner at the end of the year that u posted?? plus they already called out Garcia saying that would beat him again.
plus indongo fight happens in august. craw will be ready to fight a 3rd fight at the end of the year. broner/Garcia or pac could all be potential fights if they wanna face him.
plus on the breakfastclub at 23:00 he says he wants bob arum to give him pac after mikey and no mention of craw.
no big fights this weekend but i noticed miguel roman is fighting saturday night..i might try to catch on one of those spanish channels if i dont have shyt going on..mostly because of my curiosity if he recovered from that miura fight or not

Challengers cant get fights with Champions by just calling them out......Champions can get fights by calling out Challengers though.
The onus will always be on Crawford to actually call out, HIMSELF not Bomac or anyone else, either AB or Garcia or someone good at 147.
It's gonna stay this way for years, & everyone can continue to pretend to turn a blind eye, but at the end of the day...Challengers cant demand Championship fights (I.e. Spence couldn't get Thurman or anyone by just calling them out either), but Champs can pick their Challengers anyday & all day long
Crawford needs to pick to face the winner of AB/Garcia in his next fight and start calling them out, but instead, I can see him going after Sergey Lipinets instead

craw already said he is open to fighting mikey or ab so u going on about nothing.
plus craw called out pac/Thurman/indongo in last fight but u saying he u can see him going after lipinets.
craw has talked about moving up after complete unification more than anything.

I expect him to unify hopefully all 4 titles with Indongo then either goes up and faces Pac or fight the winner of this.This was answered in the press conference, when Lou Dibella said both Adrien Broner & Mikey Garcia are bigger than Terence Crawford

A Crawford fight can be important both Broner and Mikey if they not only here for the money but also want belts but Mikey said he probably goes back to 135 where he has a belt so idk...
If Briner somehow wins though there's no better and more meaningful fight for him @140 than Crawford

From what I read they was close. They first initially met when Ali was a youngin and he came to see Floyd Patterson train before an exhibition fight. He said that nobody had the competitive spirit of Ali. "Ali was the greatest because he loved himself". He thought Ali was the quintessential fighter because not just because his skills but because his whole psychological perspective. He thought you had to kill Ali to beat him.
Ali really thought he was the best and that's the kind of stuff that Cus drilled in Tyson head(thinking that you best and having out of this world confidence)
Tyson says in the book that " Ali made overtures to manage him but that Cus was too busy with Patterson. Ali loved Cus but he didn't want Dundees feelings. Dundee was his trainer in theory even tho Ali trained hisself and had Dundee in salary(Cus dnt work on salary) . Cus was jealous of the notoriety that Dundee got because he thought Dundee was a glorified cheerleader. Cus was bitter about that. "
Even tho they never worked together Tyson says Cus and Ali still was close and they strategized about how to win in the ring and in life. Before he fought Foreman he called up Cus and asked how do he fight him. Cus told him that Foreman had no respect for Ali power and that Ali need to go out in the first round and hurt him with a right hand(which Ali did).
Cus never liked Larry Holmes (Tyson didn't know why tho) and when Ali lost to Holmes , Ali called Cus up and thats when a 15 year old Tyson promised to beat Holmes for Ali.
All in all it was some good shyt in that book.
Nobody saying anything about being open
He needs to call out someone to fight....he's NEVER called out Adrien Broner & never will. He's the Champ, he can hand pick opponents.
plus craw called out pac/Thurman/indongo in last fight but u saying he u can see him going after lipinets.
Let's make a bet he doesn't fight Pacquiao or Thurman next....but instead fights Sergey Lipinets
Right....moving up AFTER beating Sergey Lipinets. That's exactly why I said "
Crawford needs to pick to face the winner of AB/Garcia in his next fight and start calling them out, but instead, I can see him going after Sergey Lipinets instead
"He's not going to call out Broner or Mikey Garcia, he's going to "I'll fight anybody" his way around it per the normal, & then fight another lesser fighter with a belt at 140 instead of the winner of Broner/Garcia

boi stop trolling.
now we tryna say craw ducking mikey/broner.
Accept a bet that Crawford does not face the winner of Broner/Garcia next, or even calls them out directly, but instead goes after Sergey Lipinets since you believe in him
Only 1 week is needed or we can exchange coli cash....whatever. If not, you're trolling/stanning, and we can end that here
Im going full @krackdagawd on people now, Im not about to have these debates anymore
If you truly believe what you saying, then either put your avis up or sit down
