    Did not realise how tough Bud’s Mama Crawford. Looks like she taught him how to fight. Back story of Spence vs Crawford is 2 supportive black middle class families:[url]

    Nothing wrong with discipline but she was abusive. Bud should have cut her off.

    She never said that she is proud of him, even after winning ?

    No that is not true. She is very supportive just giving her son tough love to help him succeed in his career and life.

    She's a ghetto crackpot to be blunt.

    Crawford has broke the crackpot family with no father loop of poverty which is a great achievement, he must have had some supportive great people around him growing up. Broner failed.

    The real achievement is then raising your own kids well which Crawford seems to be doing to a T who can then carry on your generational wealth, which is where Floyd has failed.

    Why is she a ghetto crackpot? What do you know about her to make such a bold assessment? Crawford’s father was away with the army and this woman became mum and dad to him and held it down. She must have done something right.

    How can you not root for TC?

    It is awesome to see what a success he has become, but also the fact the man doesn't feel the need to raise his kids like that.

    I think some level of tough love is good, but I think it is a weak person that can't also show love. Yeah maybe the kid becomes a financial success, but you are also poorly conditioning the child when it comes to relationships.

    Bud seems to have turned out alright. I much prefer the way he and Spence build this fight as opposed to the gimmicky Mayorga/Broner/Haney or any other fake drama fighters that try to con fans.
