    Crawford is as popular as a fart in a spacesuit.

    I've seen him longer in the Joe Rogan podcast than I saw him fight in his entire career and he wasn't even there for a long time.

    The cringe will come when he retires with 0 legacy wins and claims he's the GOAT because he has an 0 on his record.

    Imagine if Fury retired without beating Wlad, Wilder, Usyk etc then claimed to be the goat?

    It’s not a black or white issue the issue was the card sucked!!!
    Who would pay for a bull Szhit card regardless of the race or nationality of the fighters?
    ANSWER—An idiot or someone who will just buy anything boxing

    5000 is the alleged number of TV BUYS. Source is Dave Meltzer.
    Digital PPV buys is more.

    What does it matter? Everyone knew this would be a wash. But Crawford just cleared $10m. And given both the WBO and the WBC look at past purses not past PPV, it really isn't that big a drama

    Loma, Davis, Ennis, Canelo, Shakur, Spence, Fury,, and Usyk are more talented than Crawford. Crawford may be the most overrated boxer all time

    Spence is actually a Miguel Cotto superstar

    Same way they did in the Dempsey, Louis, Liston, and Robinson era. These fighters will just have to maintain wait or change weight classes

    If you asked a casual boxing fan to name just one Terrance Crawford opponent, they could'nt do so, which is why
    people dont buy his ppv's.

    In the 80's and 90's I used to buy every PPV boxing event, today I rarely buy a boxing PPV.

    Promoters need to find a way to stream fight cards out so that people can watch them for free.
    If not free channels on TV, how about just putting them out on Youtube for the masses to get to know the fighters
    they promote?
    I would think they would make more money putting these fight cards out on youtube if they're only drawing a few thousand on PPV.
    Only the best matchups should be considered on PPV.
