"Shawn Porter got a belt too... So why wouldn't I go the easier road, and knock Shawn Porter out?"

-Errol Spence to Terence Crawford, on why he's avoiding the unification fight with Crawford, 2018.

Spence fans got smoke for everyone other than their own fighter. Absolutely hate to see it.:francis:

Danny Garcia and Shawn Porter both hinted at the fact Bud still might not get the Spence fight even if he sign to PBC :patrice:
People being forced to take less money up front and signing to a platform just to get fights is bad for the sport and something real fans shouldn’t be co-signing
I think it’s convenient plot armor anyway but “leave Bob Arum” is not the same as “sign to PBC”
The fact Bud still ain’t going get any pbc fights if he sign to say…..Eddie Hearn is telling about what the politics really about

U sign where all the talent in ur wieght is at
You sign where the best financial setup is at. Plain and simple. Just because them PBC dudes are happy to fall in line get paid 1.5 mil for megafights don't mean everybody gotta be. But I know I know....they get 20 mil under the table right :comeon:..... Crawford took his own path and chose the best place for him and his family to be set up for LIFE. Keith Thurman and Porter made 1.4 and 1 mil each for their fight. While Terrence Crawford got a MINIMUM guarantee of 5.5 to face amir Khan. And 4 mil for Kell brook.

None of them welterweights at pbc have made more money than bud over the past 5 years and that's just facts. Dude been treated like royalty over there. But he gotta leave that situation just because PBC chose to freeze him out?:childplease:.....fukk all that. You do what's best for your family and that's that. He shouldn't be punished just cause he chose his own path.

Now that being said. I DO believe bud needs to leave top rank after his contact is up because of Bob's comments on him. I don't blame him one bit for staying there all this time but when your promoter publicly disparages you like that you gotta move on. And at this point he's got the rep to demand high pay even at pbc. He don't need Bob anymore. He's already made enough. He don't gotta sign with PBC but he definitely gotta leave Bob for disgracing his name like that.

Terrible take, as much shyt as bud deserves he shouldn't have to SIGN with PBC in order to fight guys in boxing. He has a fukking strap they SHOULD want to fight him
False. Bud knows his promoter moves the exact same way. So he Knowingly made his choice with the consequences in mind.

:francis:anybody in here saying otherwise is a c00n. It's apparent as hell that bob attempted to low-ball :dame:porter at 1mil, to fight bud, but pay a kell brook that "nobody was checking for", 2mil to fight bud. Bob don't want bud in with any of those PBC guys.. even lied to y'all about getting Pacquiao for him:mjlol:and y'all still following him and bud:russ:

No one has been clamoring about a Crawford Porter fight or even the Spence Porter fight -- the fight to be made has always been Crawford Spence, and the PBC side has consistently demonstrated an unwillingness to put aside their in house fights to make the cross promotional fight with Top Rank.

As soon as Spence beat Porter, PBC had Danny in the ring even though absolutely no one was interested in that scrap. It literally took a near death experience for people to give a shyt about that fight.

PBC has had a clear plan for Spence at 147, and it includes not giving Crawford a fight until Spence beat the marquee PBC attractions. It doesn't matter how you try to justify it, this has only prevented the #1 and 2 fighters at welterweight from actually fighting.

If you think you're lonely now, ohhh girl...
Crawford shouldn’t have to join PBC to get a fight with PBC welters. That political impasse/other side of the street shyt is lame. I will always favor boxing over MMA by a huge margin. I love the sport, truly. However, what MMA has over boxing is that you can’t hide from the top guys in your division for fukking years. The matchmaking is way better and easier. There’s none of this marinate shyt. Where I do hold Bud accountable is when guys have made apparent efforts to fight him (Swift, Showtime), he’s had no real interest. It’s like he felt those fights were beneath him but has no qualms fighting Subway sandwich artists and shyt.
