you said he's a "nobody" precisely that he will always be a nobody

how can he be a nobody?
He's ranked on all PPV lists, he's a 2 times lineal champion, unified lww champion and he's on the brink of becoming undisputed champion and he is among the 10-15 most famous active boxers in the USA, he always did good numbers on HBO. Or if not tell me 15 active fighters who are more known there.

all the above... "he's a nobody tho..."

We got different definitions of being a nobody


If t craw walked down any street in America, nobody would give af. U confusing skill with clout

Andre Ward No Longer The Target For Tony Bellew

By Shaun Brown

Any proposed bout between Tony Bellew and light-heavyweight king Andre Ward looks to be dead in the water.

Bellew, the WBC Emeritus cruiserweight champion, could instead be about to go back into the ring with David Haye for a second time.

The Liverpudlian is expected to fight before the end of 2017 and an announcement on his next opponent appears to be not far away.

“Eddie Hearn is closing in on [my next opponent] now,” Bellew told Sky Sports News.

“We got a fair bit closer with Andre Ward and I thought that was going to get announced imminently, to be honest.

“Eddie came back to me with something else, and said ‘this is what’s going on and this is what’s happening’. I trust Eddie and I believe in what he does by me. He had led me this far.”

Bellew’s promoter delivered a dream for the Everton fan when the 34-year-old walked out at his beloved Goodison Park in May 2016 to stun Ilunga Makabu to capture the WBC cruiserweight title in spectacular fashion. The 'Bomber' continued his momentum with a three round demolition of BJ Flores in his first defence before moving up to heavyweight to defeat David Haye earlier this year.

Talks with Haye have restarted following their bout in March which saw Haye rupture his Achilles tendon in round six and Bellew suffer a broken hand.

With Ward seemingly no longer the priority for Bellew, and fellow target WBO heavyweight champion Joseph Parker scheduled to fight Hughie Fury on September 23 in Manchester, a rematch with Haye looks like the remaining option for Bellew should he fight again this year.

that sob Hearn...

In any case, I think Crawford is on track to get more exposure soon. He's going to be unifying all the belts a weak division, but it'll be on ESPN and the casuals going to remember Crawford holding all the belts. He'll also be moving up to arguably the most popular division after that, so his name is going to be brought up a lot more in those fantasy matchups.

Hopefully he will. But he gotta play catchup and he already 30.

so being a top 10-15 most famous active boxer in the States doesn't automatically mean to you that he's not a nobody?
that he pack venues and makes good ratings mean he is still a nobody?

there are levels between a nobody and a superstar.
I think it's disrespectful to call someone like Crawford a nobody.
you don't think he's gonna be a crossover star... cool, but he's not a nobody

Like I said different definitions of being a nobody. I would never stan a fighter like t craw because there is only so far in boxing he can go. T craw would be b side to daMN near any 147 pounder wOrth mentioning. In the grand scheme of things he is just a really good Boxer that will more than likely retire with jessie vargas being his best win.

Yeah it seems like since you seem to think everybody who's not an absolute superstar is a nobody

So you decide who you stan based on the fighter being a draw or not? on their promoter?

love or hate Bob Arum but he's still the best at creating stars. Crawford gonna get big exposure on the 19th for the first time

I know why you want him to fail but he won't fail, he's gonna take on the best of 147 and he's gonna beat your boy too sooner or laterwould that be a better win than Jessie Vargas?

And yes I don't waste my time on nikkas that literally can't get fights because they not a big enough draw. fukk I look like stanning a nikka that's begging for fights




Tell lil terrence to get his numbers up. Danny gone have a tuneup to back bounce. We gone fukk shawn up and then get that keith rematch. Lil terrence gone ko horn on a ppv that will do 20k buys hbo will inflate the numbers to 40k. And then defend We are Bob's Organization belt against jessie vargas, sadam ali, random nikka nobody heard of(dierry Jean 2.0)

Crawford chin is trash. Danny probably gone slump him. And terrence ain't fought nobody. That top rank matchmaking got y'all fooled. Once danny starts to time t craw and get to his body, t craw is gonna get hurt. And unlike gamboa, we not letting him of the hook. Terrence got great skills but his trash chin and inexperience will hurt him in this fight. And besides if the fight is a toss up danny definitely getting the win
