Terence Crawford claims Bob Arum's 'revolting racial bias' hurt his career

Buds in a really bad spot. Arum previously revealed publicly what Bud has made each fight and the fact that he's lost $$$ on his PPV fights, somewhere around $10 million. PBC has already come out and said the Spence fight aint happened yet cuz Buds not a PPV star and that they can't pay him what he's asking for. So now that Buds spurned his relationship with TR for good, his only options are sign to PBC and accept the low $$$ they're offering or stay independent and never get the fight. Poor champ.

Wonder what impact this could have for all the black fighters still fighting under TR. like will TR start moving with them different
Not sure they can prove the biased part based off race but he should have a case that Arum hurt him specifically with the comments over the last year or two
Bud about to get another check from TR :salute:

:salute: salute Bud for putting this reptile krakkker on notice.

Hopefully he steers some young prospects away from making the same mistakes he did dealing with this scumbag.

:gucci:

Buds influenced ALOT of young black fighters to join TR tho in the past...was Arum racist then? Or did he magically become racist AFTER Bud resigned to him??? :sas2:

Is Bud a true free agent? I know top rank fighters sign deals where even when they become free agents Arum is allowed to match whatever deal a fighter gets from another company. Basically some indentured servitude bullshyt. Mikey Garcia sued Arum when he became a free agent and was out of the sport for 2 years and was willing to retire. Mikey and Top Rank settled before the case went to trial. Top Rank are some true scum bags.

If Top Rank is so racist where is Allah Haymon to save all the young black prospects from the fate of Top Rank…

Like why the Thurman cars have filled with mediocre Mexicans that will have no long impact in the boxing world.

I’m just not buying the racist angle when TR sign all the black prospects. It’s very hard to break into the fight game without a major promoter backing.

Top Rank and boxing period is drunk off the Latino fans but i do think Top Rank try there hardest for a great white hope. They haven’t found him yet but they are trying.

It sucks that if they are indeed racist that black prospects don’t have any other decent options it seems.

Who's it most likely Crawford will fight next now? Imagine this will make any fights involving Top Rank fighters much less likely unless it gets settled.
