Again, TR Paid Brook KNOWING There'd Be No Live Crowd...But the Possibility is THERE to Host Crawford-Porter WITH Fans in Attendance... Among the Aforementioned Bouts in Texas, Vergil Ortiz and Maurice Hooker are ALSO About to Fight w/a Live Crowd, In Texas... TR Can Pay Porter MORE than $2Mil, They Just Don't WANT To... REED
Porter got beatdown by spence, nearly KOd and lost decisively to brook. Brook was over paid but a Crawford porter ppv isn't a money maker either, unless it takes place in nebraska with fans Let it go to purse bid and see what porter gets
"Beatdown by Spence"??? REED, Being THE LEAST Objective Fightbeat Poster When it Comes to Errol Spence, Can READILY Admit You're Full of Shit w/That Characterization... Hell, Spence NEEDED the 11th Round Knockdown to ASSURE the Victory; The Fight was THAT Fucking Close...How Many "Beatdowns" are Nominated "Fight of the Year", Neil???... In LESS Than a Month it'll Be a Full 7 YEARS Since Porter and Brook Fought...To Bring That Up, Even SUGGESTING Brook Stood On Some Type of HIGHER Ground Than Porter, Coming Into His Fight w/Crawford, is Beneath You Bruh... You're Reaching Like Fuck Right Now... Look, REED Ain't Saying Porter DESERVES $5Mil or Even $4Mil, but He Damn Sure Deserves MORE than the $2Mil Top Rank JUST Paid Kell Brook for Terence Crawford's Last Fight... $2Mil is a Bullshit, Disingenuous Offer... REED
this HAS to be bologna, i don't see anywhere online where Bud fights Josesito, that would be ridiculous
If Top Rank was DUMB Enough to OVERPAY Brook $2Mil, AFTER OVERPAYING Amir Khan (Clearly a BIGGER Draw Than Brook) $5Mil, Based On the Same "British PPV Market" Premise that DIDN'T Justify Khan's Purse, That's On THEM... If Anything, it Shows How EASY it Was for Top Rank to Pony Up $2Mil... Top Rank COULD Pay Porter More than $2Mil, They Just Don't WANT To... REED
fuck porter. yes he was beatdown by spence. was he or was he not nearly knocked out? porter is a largely unwatchable fighter in about 75% of his fights. to suggest he's in some strong bargaining position is foolish. who else is offering him 2 million to fight?
Doesn't deserve its own thread, but speaking of titlists unwilling to take on challenges, when the fuck is Andrade going to fight a legitimate threat?
This is just sad and disappointing. Crawford is slowly wasting his whole damn career away. Fight someone with a pulse Bud!
Not slowly. Bud is 33. How much prime does he have left? Ennis might be ready to stomp Crawford by sometime in 2022.
Uuuuh NO, Porter Was Never "Nearly Knocked Out" in the Spence Fight, Bruh... The 1 Time He was Dropped, Porter Went to His KNEE, Was Up Fairly Quickly and Screaming "Let's Go" to Spence As the Ref Completed the Mandatory 8-Count...Did You WATCH the Fight???.... This Post is Fuuuuurther Evidence of What TENURED Fightbeaters Have Always Known; You're INCAPABLE of Assessing Shawn Porter OBJECTIVELY (Among Others)... What's FUNNY Is You Don't See That as a PROBLEM Either... Shawn Porter > Randall Bailey REED
