    Yeah, right, he would choose to retire instead of earning at least $300M more.

    He won't get anywhere remotely near $300 million fighting Janibek unless Janibek becomes a superstar overnight.

    Janibek is a one trick pony, Crawford is leagues above him.
    But the southpaw vs southpaw angle might make it very interesting.

    One trick pony sounds a bit harsh. He's talented but just not tested enough. We need to see him against Adames or even old Lara to get a good gauge on his overall abilities and to see if he would pose as an actual threat Crawford.

    You said Crawford might retire. I say he will do 5 more fights, $60M salary per fight.

    Janibek is very polished southpaw and can fight at all ranges what are talking about ? His left uppercut is his signature punch but he's not a one trick pony

    Hes a one trick pony, and no, he can not fight at all ranges. His inside fighting is atrocious, which is masked by his his uppercut. Besides that, he has nothing.

    Don´t get me wrong, he is very good at what he does, but he is also very limited.

    Hes a multi millionaire. He never has to work another day in his life if he doesnt want to.

    At some point more money is just more money.

    Once you have financial freedom, money is no longer a motivator.

    This wouldn't be very entertaining.
