Crawford cherrypicked the weakest beltholder at Welterweight and has fought weak challengers since. Spence is fighting a legit top 5 operator in Porter next. Why would Spence duck Crawford and take on a risky challenge in Porter? Doesn't make sense. More like Arum is protecting Crawford or at least keeping him away while the fight marinates and it's doubtful that he'll fight anyone that matters in the meantime.
It's some of the most blatant ducking in boxing right now. How many times has Errol called himself the boogie man since that video in which Crawford confronted him went viral? Precisely zero times. I wonder why that is? When I listen to Errol list all of these bs reasons why he shouldn't have to fight Crawford I know I'm listening to a man who is scared to fight Crawford. It's so pitifully obvious he don't want none of that Crawford smoke that I actually feel embarrassed for him at this point.
Makes sense. Crawford is a guy who has been steered a certain way for his entire career in a very careful and methodical fashion. He conquered a bunch of weak divisions with much smaller fighters and now that he's in his natural weight class his handlers are reluctant to put him in with the top guys.
This content is protected Spence got trolled badly by Crawford here. Spence took multiple Ls: Admitting that he was fat (not in the sense that we consider fat) and responding "I'm not fat" and "How I look at the weigh in?" Spence yelling at Crawford's boy (clear attempt to get away from Crawford even for a second) Refused to take a picture w/ Crawford Saying why wouldn't he take the easier fight (Porter) Fake answering a call on his phone is classic run-under-pressure tactic
Bud is universally recognized as the best fighter pfp. We will take Tim's words over your pathetic rant any day.
He is ducking, and I hate it, but it's probably smart. He can just clean house at PBC and then move up weight classes. He knows, AT BEST, it's a 50/50 fight with Bud. Why not just beat the lesser champs and move on up and never have to face the one guy who could out duel him in the ring?
Why in the heck does Crawford have to go to Haymon for a Spence fight but Haymon can send his guys anywhere he wants to fight in any promotion? I don't see this written anytime Lomachencko wants to fight someone at PBC. I don't see this garbage when Golovkin wants to fight Canelo? I can see the threads now if Oscar demanded that GGG sign to GBP for a Canelo fight. Professor would be banning left and right. When it comes to Crawford the hate is real.
Sometimes the financial package makes sense. Bradley is a smart guy and he signed w/ TR because the money is good.. He's not hood and doesn't need to be flashy or wear bling. Look at the way he dresses and then compare him to Spence, Broner, Davis, the Charlo Bros. Crawford is also less flashy than the PBC guys and he re-signed with TR because the financial package was better than what PBC offered. But I have shown you that Arum is willing and has worked w/ Haymon. Lomachenko-Russell Jr. Gvozdyk-Stevenson Offers to Danny, Mikey, and Broner to fight Pac Has repeatedly said he wants to make Crawford-Spence (but Ellerbe and Spence are the ones saying it's not happening anytime soon)
Two top 5 skilled fighters in boxing both massively underrated on this forum. Hope Spence gets the canelo fight next so he can get some credit from canelos soy boy joe blow fan base.
Nah it's just he made a stupid decision sticking with Arum when he couldn't gone to Haymon and be part of the plan there. Can Crawford not fight on PBC?
Dude, PBC fighters ducked each other for the longest time. Only Thurman stepped up in the beginning. Look at Gary Russett Jr., Duckvonta Gayvis, and Leyla Santa Cruz. These guys aren't fighting dudes with pulses anytime soon.
