    Crawford was just on the Stephen A. Smith show he came across as confident but respectful and curteous.

    I hear all the time that he is an egotistical A-hole but I didn't get that vibe at all?

    You think the a-hole thing was just him trying to hype?

    Or is he really like that and this interview was the act?

    I have no idea why the guy has haters at all personally.

    The only ******* thing he's done AFAIK is he beat up some mechanic guy fixing his car from what I remember.

    TC broke into some Custom Car shop to take his car without paying. They broke machinery and allegedly strong armed a worker.

    TC was also on video refereeing a street fight between his baby momma and beach whale mistress.

    People just think he's Ghetto Nebraska guy

    Bud is a Dud. He has no charisma & all the personality of an indoor plant.

    He will never be a big crossover star.

    The American boxing media will pretend very hard that it's going to happen but it won't & will then move onto whoever's next in their endless quest for self-gratification.

    Expect the ESPN commentary for this one to be nauseating & try to look beyond it when scoring the fight.

    Why all the seething skepticism, guy? You sound almost salty about it.

    If you think something different, happy to read it.

    I don't have a particularly strong opinion on it one way or another. No investment. But of course they're going to shill one guy in particular on a network... and yeah, he's dull as dishwater. Joe Louis wasn't an exciting personality either. Who really gives a ****? :lol:

    So you're telling me unless you have a brash/cocky personality, you're never going to be a crossover star?

    I agree if that's the case

    Andre should EASILY have been a star and would have been anywhere outside of the US.

    Being a nice guy doesn't cut it anymore.

    AUS media r always referring to him as the cocky american or brash american.
    I think they perceive all black american athletes that way?
    What I seen think I he's pretty humple chill kind of character.
    N who hasn't got into a fight with dodgy rip off ****en mechanics.

    Crawford just needs better PR. Floyd isn't exactly Mr Personality, and look what they did with him.

    They should make tee shirts with Crawford's smiling face on the front, surrounded by ferny-green plants.
    Underneath it would say "I LIKE BUD ! "

    And the potential tie-in with a famous American beer company is rather obvious.


    Team Crawford is SLACKIN', I'm tellinh' ya' ...............
