I think it’s all good with Bud. He can beat the likes of Khan, Brooke’s which are respectable opponents then a big final showdown once a winner emerges from the pbc tournament.
Bradley did amazing financially with Arum. 3 Pacquiao fights, Marquez. He made 1 million on his first fight with Top Rank.
Why is there a problem when Haymon creates a dynasty and provides big paydays for his fighters (majority black)? Hmmm. No one says **** when Arum has been doing his thing for centuries.
I doubt Crawford vs Khan did great business on pay per view buys like Erroll Spence vs Mikey Garcia. Spence and Garcia made over $10 Million each. The PBC guys are all doing very well. Tank is making more money than Loma as well. Danny Garcia is a multimillionaire thanks to being with Al Haymon. When the time is right Crawford will leave Bob Arum and Top Rank like Manny Pacquiao did.
I think its fine for the most part but one of the most anticipated fights is Spence-Crawford. Its also not fair to Crawford and the public to deny them of the potential Crawford bouts.
It could still happen. Obviously not this year but maybe 2020. In the meantime, Spence can pick up another strap by mauling Porter. I
Ye, I think Spence cleaning out PBC is fine. Crawford cleaning out Hearn/Arum and others is fine too. So far we have Horn, Benavidez, Khan and potentially brookes vs brookes, peterson, mikey and potentially porter. Don't think Crawford is falling behind at all. But I can see Arum's angle. He has the best horse in the game. What better way to devalue Haymon's entire stable by beating the man in that stable, so that no matter who wins their little tournament he can claim that he still has the king. What other options does Arum have, anyone he can bring up from 140 or bring crawford up to a catchweight at JMW?
Fair points. The thing is Arum will try and delay the fight as long as he can. Cant, he feed Pac to Crawford?
How can you say something so stupid when Ellerbe and the VP of PBC literally said all this week that they are not going to even entertain the idea of a Crawford fight anytime soon? Like, Arum has said let's go, go, go and PBC has said no, no, no.
