We gotta blame Bob Arum:yeshrug:


On October 3rd, that designation of hottest fighter at 140 will go to it's rightful owner anyways......:aboutbillions:
Blame Bob?? Crawfaord JUST got to 140 and is already champion unlike Lucas.. more like "we gotta thank Bob"

And you already know LM and Crawford clash is inevitable

Bob Arum is the reason why Terence Crawford hasn't "put in enough work" at 140.

2012: Crawford fought 4 times
2013: Crawford fought 3 times
2014: Crawford fought 3 times
2015: Crawford's only fought 1 time (april) and will only have 2 fights total this year.

There's no one to blame for Crawford in his prime only having 2 fights in 1 year, especially when over the 3 previous years he was fighting at least 3 or more times, except his promoter....Bob Arum.

He came into this year with a huge buzz which has simmered down a lot. Wasn't he the Fighter Of The Year in 2014? You don't sit him down like this. Crawford should have already had at LEAST 2 fights already and about to enter his 3rd/4th fight of the year.

He was supposed to be the hottest fighter at 140. We gotta blame Bob Arum:yeshrug:

naw u a real nikka...u would never turn ur back on broner....even if loses...even though he won't.

At very worst, I would just add Crawford to the stable:sas2:


AB is not ever going anywhere while he's still the best of the #OhioPlayers to me. Whoever the best from Ohio is will always remain my #1 favorite fighter. It might be Terell Gausha shortly...who knows:yeshrug:

I rep him cause he from Ohio, but I don't think he's the best:yeshrug:


He's in the #OhioPlayers tier: Shawn Porter, Mickey Bey, Robert Easter Jr., Terrell Gausha, Jamel Herring, Raynell Williams, Brandon Bennett, Rau'Shee Warren, Mark Davis, etc

Hes part of the top Rank/HBO brand right now.. he has buzz regardless of he fights 2 or 4 tines a year

absolutely nothing wrong with Crawford fighting twice a year this year.. he's undefeated and champ at 140, he doesn't need to fight 4 times a year.. for what??

What other top 140 fighters fighting 3/4 times this year?

He needs to be fighting 3 times a year right now to capitalize on his buzz he received coming off the 2014 Fighter Of The Year award. He's not a PPV draw or known outside of Boxing heads.....and he's in his prime. No way he should be sitting on the shelf or fighting only twice a year right now imo.

What other top 140 fighters fighting 3/4 times this year?

None except AB and Imam who come October 3rd would both already have 3 fights in the year 2015. However, no 140lber received the buzz that Crawford did last year.


You don't think he's lost alot of momentum he had coming into this year by being out for so long?

Thats understandable since Imam fought in January and AB trying to bounceback quickly from another L... dont nobody give a fukk about fighter of the year.. you think a casual could tell you TC who was FOTY 2014?? You know damn well they would say Floyd, GGG or Canelo...

I think Crawfords buzz is fine and only gets bigger from here especially if he faces Herrera, LM, or moves up to 147..

Hes in good hands at TR :jawalrus:

Nah.

Crawford's buzz has dropped a lot from where it was last year after he beat Yuriorkis Gamboa.......and there's no one to blame but Bob Arum.

Prime fighters, who are still trying to build their name/brand in the sport, shouldn't be fighting only 2 times a year imo.

No those are prospects, guys coming off loses, or dudes trying to pad their resume.. nothing wrong with him fighting twice at all..

Yall real quick to blame Bob for anything lol.. ever thought TC might've wanted to to take some extra time off
