  • No one cares about these interviews if these guys aren’t fighting each other. Just stop it.

    • I’m with you! I’m so tired of Boxing NOT getting it right! The conversation right now should’ve been about the rematch, not whether or not they will ever fight each other. I’m tired of this crap and as a consumer I won’t be watching! And that goes for you too Spence! Go ahead and fight Thurman…..I WONT BE WATCHING!!

  • Bud let the Boxing community down. The whole time he’s asking PBC stupid questions about Concession stands and ticket sales he was stalling and negotiating a side deal with Aversonxyz. Bud is pretending to want the fight.
    Left Spence at the table with no other options.
    He doesn’t want the fight with Spence after seeing what he did to Ugas, after a long layoff.
    But cant blame him too much, getting in the ring with Spence is simply bad for your health.

  • I LIKE CRAWFORD AND SPENCE BOTH… SPENCE HAS TWO BELTS AND HE WANTS MORE MONEY THAN CRAFORD AND THAT IS WHAT IS HOLDING UP THE FIGHT ALTHOUGH BUD HAD BEEN A CHAMPION TWO TIMES IN DIFFERENT WEIGHT CLASSES… LET’S MAKE IT AN EVEN SPLIT AND JUST GET IT ON… PEOPLE CAN SAY THIS OR THAT BUT ACTUALLY NOBODY REALLY KNOWS WHAT’S GOING ON BECAUSE THEY DO NOT KNOW THESE PEOPLE PERSONALLY… SO THIS TALK ABOUT THIS ONE OR THAT ONE BEING AFRAID IS ALL JUST BULLSHIT IF YOU BELIEVE IT

    • aaaaa Spence owns 3 major belts sir the WBA, WBC, and IBF beating champions in the process Crawfish on the other hand was gifted a fight for the WBO belt with fixed champion named Horn realistically Crawfish doesnt have a resume full of big time names but he was promoted by Top Rank which is owned by ESPN and thats exactly why you see so much bias towards him i mean hes only P4P on the ESPN list lol

      • I remember Thurman saying he will fight Crawford after his comeback win………..but he turn state and is fighting Spence instead. All the big names nobody’s fighting him and I also applaud him to question his money (concessions) that his MONEY and it’s called prize fighting, everybody’s getting paid for not fighting Crawford..loosing respect for 147

  • Bud a bad boy #1 pound for pound I know all y’all want the Spence fight but don’t blame neither fighter I keep hearing Bud scare of Spence and Spence scared of Bud guarantee neither one scared of each other there both trying to get paid if they fight May the best man win but if they don’t boxing will never die and it will be other fights out there both guy want this fight they just fill like the money should be better

  • I don’t xare about any rant from Charlo. His boss will not let him fight anyone who doesn’t sign a promotional countract under him.

  • Crawford is a good fight but he’s a TERRIBLE businessman. The interviewer named the fighters his opponent has been against one of them being Shane Mosley, asks him what threat his opponent brings and Crawford’s opening response is, “pretty much nothing.”

    Why would anyone want to order if your opponent isn’t a threat? He needs to learn to sale his fights.
