Comments Thread For: Spence Reacts To Crawford-Avanesyan: Everyone Can Now See Who Was The Holdup!

[blindsideyou]

Well, if Spence is still sending revised contracts, I can see why Crawford has a problem and made the decision he made. I’m still very disappointed the fights off.

In my opinion, both are at fault and I couldn't care less about the details. It was naive of me to think that the sport of boxing would improve the way fights get made, and not 'marinate' too long to the point of being past their expiration date when the fights are finally made. Obviously, it's still not too late (yet) to make the fight in the spring, but I am completely done supporting either one of these guys going forward. Obviously the fact that neither one couldn't give a **** less about my opinion, or any other fans' opinions is not lost on me, after all they're still getting paid, but it's getting harder by the day to continue to be a fan of this great yet frustrating sport.

This is an absolute farce.

Cue the hoards of fan boys who know exactly who is to blame here and have nothing better to do than berate the other.

The truth is, none of us really know who is to blame. It's always the frigging same with boxing, unless you're directly involved in the negotiations then you need to accept that all you know is what you've been told and, who your bias is with.

This was the latest this fight could have gone where we can all see that they're both in their primes. It's gone the same way as May/Pac and it'll be meaningless by the time (if) it gets made.

What a load of BS. Both sides want their greedy ass heads ****ing. Both of their next fights should be openly boycotted.

spence is totally superior to crawford who plays the victim spence is not afraid of anyone but good crawford is afraid it's normal he will get a big salary with adenasya and he will come back to lose against spence with another big salary so that crawfort has you don't face boots ennis are mandatary he will pt have a surprise with adenasya

I thought money wasn't an issue according to Team Crawfish it was just minor details. It's funny how Arum said Bud was difficult to work with. The Kell Brook fight took forever with the contract and the same thing happened with the Porter fight. It's obvious that Bud wants soft touches with big money( The Canelo model)

Too bad about the fight. This is the only fight I'll pay for from either fighter moving forward. I know losing one paying customer isn't the end of the world for either fighter, but damn it, I'm not spending a penny on another fight from either side until this gets made.

[Bronx2245]

The only name on bumfords record is a washed up Porter that deserved to go the distance. What a joke this guy is and anyone that cannot see it is a brain dead d*ick rider and in total denial. Guy has fought a bunch of nobodies his entire career lmao fighting the WBO 7th ranked guy, come on.

Crawford is all about the check! He's getting a "career high payday" for this fight. Eight figures!!!

Terence Crawford Defends Against David Avanesyan On Dec.10th On PPV

WBO welterweight champion Terence Crawford will be facing David Avanesyan next on December 10th on BLK PPV at the CHI Health Center in Omaha, Nebraska.

With Avanesyan’s power, you can’t rule out an upset win for him over Crawford, who has looked vulnerable to big shots since moving up to 147.

Crawford (38-0, 29 KOs) and the Avanesyan (29-3-1, 17 KOs) has finalized contracts to battle on PPV, according to ESPN. The pay-per-view price is $39.95, and Crawford will get a career-high payday.

Surprisingly, Crawford will get the biggest payday against Avanesyan, who arguably isn’t as popular as some of his past opponents.



Terence Crawford vs David Avanesyan reportedly signed for Dec. 10 on ******ing PPV

Terence Crawford doesn’t look like he’ll be fighting Errol Spence Jr, but also doesn’t look like he’ll be sitting out 2022 entirely.

.

Coppinger’s report says the fight will be available as a $39.95 ******ing pay-per-view on BLK Prime. Sources tell ESPN that Crawford “will earn a career-high eight-figure payday,” which sounds pretty crazy for something like this, but boxing is a weird business.

Okay. I am out. I am so wrong so often on fights being made. No longer care who is at fault.

If it gets made next year of course I will be excited. Not listening to a thing about it going forward.

[Roj]

This looks like Crawford feels he's worth a certain amount.
Spence side want proof he's worth that.
Crawford says let me prove it and signs for a PPV.
If Crawford sells X amount,
Spence's side will be forced to give in.
if he doesn't,
Crawford will be forced to concede and sign as is.
Either way,
this fight is too big to let go at this stage of negotiations.

The scenario you lay out makes a lot of sense, so we’ll done on that! I do disagree on your last point: right now
it wouldn’t bother me at all if Spence-Crawford never happens. I’m much more interested in seeing Wilder against anyone, Bivol-Berbetiev and Davis-Garcia.

[brettWall]

No one will ever know who to blame until you revealed all the details that went through in those negotiations. Both sides would be blamed. It takes two to tango.
