What a signing for Sky Sports Boxing. I only have 2 words: Game Changed. Sky Sport must make sure that they do not move towards any reality / circus boxing.
Bloody hell. Takes the **** that this guy has got signed on his reality tv profile, where as all the amateurs out there, grafting hard with better ability than him aren't.
Not good. We knew their roster was thin (thanks Probellum) but this already looks desperate. It's been encouraging to see Boxxer and Shalom put the politics to one side and get difficult headline fights made. I just hope this isn't the start of a slippery slope for them.
Absolute joke 35 in may our other geordie Joker Joe Laws sparks him easy… though that would never happen … hope he gets embarrassed what a money grab… though Adam Booth will probs take all his money and ruin him so maybe poetic justice will prevail…
Of course he has. he is in Khan’s camp and Khan is fighting on Sky on Saturday. What possible fight could sky offer Crawford? Given Taylor is a top rank fighter. only place I can see Crawford going at this stage is probellum for a couple of fights. If I was Crawford, I would have vacated the WBO. Petitioned to become IBF mandatory given it’s a 35% split. Taken it to pursebids and if he wins there’s no rematch clause. Can offer it to spence on a 75/25 in the rematch.
I would have said fair play if they kept it low key signed him and just stuck him on a few shows to sell tickets. given he’s been announced a a superstar signing its completely embarrassing and Sky should be held to account. Shalom doesn’t know any better but sky are looking lower league here
