And this has what to do with the price of bacon? Crawford demanded a fight with a PBC talent. Porter said he was Crawford's Huckleberry, Crawford blinked. Porter's dad has nothing to do with this. Also, since when did fighting for a vacant belt become a bad thing? Especially when it was against Danny Garcia, and then Porter turned right around and fought Yordenis Ugás and Errol Spence! You make it sound like he ducked Crawford and fought a bunch of soft touches.
Free TV is a world apart from PPV. Especially with what they cost. I don't think Spence is a draw either. Of course Mikey helped.
I know this is old, but the reason people don’t complain about Lomachenko’s personality as much as they do Crawford is because Crawford is an arrogant knob really, he has trolled numerous of his opponents after the damn fight and he speaks with no respect towards anyone
I don't worry about his personality. Just want to see what he can do in the ring. I appreciate that he might sell more tickets if he talked a big game or had an extremely charismatic personality, but he is who he is. The best thing he can do is just fight the best opponents he can find. Quite possibly he's never going to be the "star" that Mayweather and Leonard were. But being a step below isn't bad, and he can get there if he can beat Spence.
Loma has been incredibly arrogant and unsportsmanlike in the ring when he's winning and makes excuses after he loses. Your seeing only what reinforces what you want to see.
What's hindering his stardom is that he's wasting his career and physical prime. 33 years old and not a single notable win on his CV, fights at most twice a year although that's considered normal in boxing and has shown zero desire to test himself against dangerous opponents (Spence, Pac, even Thurman).
Crawford can have Spence if he accepts the lower end of the purse split. He will lose though most likely get stopped.
