    Easily the worst boxing year since I began following the sport in ‘96.

    Without a defining Spence win, Bud's killed his chances of being remembered as an all time.

    He's a HOFmer, but now they'll always be speculation as to how he would have done against a truly elite fighter.

    He's long past being Leonard/Hearns class, but now he can forget about even Oscar/Mosley level greatness.

    Damn bro you're so bias. After all he's accomplished you said Canelo is a only very good fighter. But Spence is already a HOF just one fight away from being an all time great. What has Spence done to be considered great? Beat little Mikey Garcia ,Shawn Porter and Ugas his three best wins? If thats all it takes to be great in your book?

    I don’t know who to believe at this point. I think both these fuckers are scared to lose that 0 and are trying to milk every penny.

    To be totally honest though- their promoters are probably right there with them.

    if he is getting 8 figures to fight this guy, hard to blame him for ducking spence. but doesn't mean we don't hold it against him.

    I d be shocked it this PPV does more than 100k, even at this ''lower'' price point. My guess would be 50/60 k at most. A financial trainwreck if I've ever seen one

    I agree with @Azazel. Its doubtful Bud is making buku bucks to fight this nobody. Doubtful it’s more than what he would have made against Spence regardless how much he was being low balled.

    And at 35, Crawford doesn't have time on his side either. He's at the tail end of his career and basically has no meaningful win (worthy of a p4p ''great'' fighter). Sad because I like the dog he displayed in his recent fights but his career is a huge disappointment. Very unambitious, cut from the same cloth as Andrande

    Avesenyan is a fairly solid dude. I think he’ll go the distance.

    It's on some startup app for 40 bucks. I don't know if they actually guaranteed him 10 mill but if so he better get his money up front. Lopez made that mistake with triller and fucked his career all up

    In my opinion I think haymon doesn't like Crawford and is hoping he gets older and more inactive and maybe even push the fight to 154 next year to give spence the best shot at winning

    I dont believe that either guy is leery of the other

    I don't think Ava will get past eight; but he isn't a bad fighter. Definitely not a nobody. He's much better than Benn or Lipinets.

    I agree with this for the most part. Both Spence and Bud have shown they are not pussies. Highly doubt either one is scared to fight each other in the sense regular folks like you and I would be scared to get in the ring with them. But I do think they know somebody's 0 got to go. They may be content avoiding each other(to keep their undefeated record and legacy intact) and keep fighting bums or no hopers like the guy Bud is fighting next. Just fear of losing marketability.

    BLK Prime is to Blame, Not Al Haymon...

    Youtube has Been Blowing Up Since Yesterday Because Apparently Noted YouTuber, Blue Blood, Partnered Up w/BLK Prime to Present the Avenesyan Bout to Crawford DURING the Time he was ALSO Negotiating the Spence Fight...

    Specifically, Bud Requested 3 Contract Revisions, They were GRANTED & PBC Never Heard Back from Bud's Attorney...This is Now Being Reported by MULTIPLE YouTube Channels that Actually SUPPORTED Crawford as Recent as 2 Days Ago...Now, Bud's Getting RAPED Online...

    Blue Blood's Posted a Series of DAMAGE CONTROL Videos but He Confirmed He Helped Facilitate Crawford-Avenesyan...Blue Blood's a CHARTER Member of the Controversial YouTube Collective, LDBC, and Even They AREN'T Condoning This...Black Fight Fan TV, 78Sports, Fannon, etc...

    If the $10mil Guarantee is LEGIT, REED Can't Blame Bud for Wanting That LAST Lil' Lick vs. a SAFER Opponent, Before Facing Spence...But What Bud Absolutely SHOULD Be Blamed for is Negotiating in BADfuckingFAITH w/Team Spence...

    No, Bud AIN'T Scared of Spence, But He's Clearly "Leery" Enough to Want an Overpriced Bout vs. a HEAVY Underdog, in Lieu of Spence...
