You guys are to blame for Spence/Crawford not happening

[Larry the boss]

hold up, i thought it was signed

[hhh1200]

First off this this isn't Spence or promoters fault Spence wants to prove he's the best ww today but it takes two to tango and Crawford doesn't want it. He's content with a half ass career because you guys have praised him for it.

TR, media, ESPN etc were quick to praise Crawford for facing bum after bum, ESPN did what they do and said he was "p4p the best" when anyone who knows boxing would tell you thats BS his resume is nowhere near p4p best.

But you guys went with it and started saying this guy was the best when he clearly wasn't. Now you guys have created a monster a Diva monster he's thinks he's worth more than he really is but he isn't. Crawford would have never been mentioned along the fab 4 of the 80s not even close. He doesn't care to prove it either because ya told him he was the best by beating bums so why would he have to prove it against top comp like Spence.

You guys have to live with that now.

Thank you, Al Haymon or Bob's Fault

Loyalty to what?

KSI, the Paul brothers, AnEsonGib, etc. Do you know why they have loyal followers?

They all have a gimmick. Personality. They know that entertainment is a big part of it. That's why guys like Fury, Wilder, Chisora, etc. can always draw a crowd, they will entertain.

Nobody wants to see "Boring Ass" Frank Sanchez out there. Or guys like Crawford who are dull and barely talk during pressers, or guys who talk all nice and respectful about each other and then go in there barely trying.

There's a reason Tank Davis is perceived as the guy everyone wants to fight, the top guy. Why Spence is widely accepted as the top welterweight. Why Teofimo despite having no belts is the target. All of those guys sell their fights.


Just with Spence alone - he just throws out these quality, memorable lines and his twang just makes it work.

I agree! as for Loyalty, I'm talking about how other sports have Loyal Fans which plays a huge roll in why NFL and other leagues get Billions in Network deals alone allowing them to put their biggest games on TV for FREE. Boxing just doesn't have that Luxury so we are stuck with a bunch of PPV's

but yeah fighters need to do better selling themselves, most of these guys barely use their own Social Media Pages

Boxing fans watch whatever is fed to them. You can bark all day 24/7, 365 days asking for certain fights to be made, and networks/promoters won't give a F about what you cry about. You gotta be a complete idiot to assume networks/promoters only make fights demanded by fans.

Bottom line is it's a business. Various factors are involved why certain fights are easy to make and some are not. And it has nothing to do with what fans want. This is not rocket science. A 12 year old could figure why Team fighter A chooses one fight over another. It has nothing to do with what fans want. Zero, none, nada.

I'm sorry everyone.

[_Rexy_]

lol yeah its the forums users fault. it cant be that these guys egos are too big to settle for a 50/50 split. it cant be that DAZN blew through investor money overpaying every fighter and now everyone thinks they can get 50 million dollar contracts.

lmao at OP

Crawford just prints off message board posts and brings them to negotiations

Crawford running over and meeting with Kinahan "Allegedly" did not F^cking help either

NOBODY wants to be next to anybody associated with Kinahan when the FBI starts knocking on the doors of people who are potentially connected to him and get caught in that sh^t storm and now have the FBI on your back...not even Crawford is worth that risk

so all they can do is play this waiting game and see if Crawford is clear from any connection with Kinahan
