As we all know, the highly anticipated negotiations for Terence Crawford vs. Errol Spence ended this month. The 147-pound welterweight united battle finally came to an end after months of hustle and bustle.
There are many different opinions on the issue of the breakdown of the negotiations between Spence and Crawford. There is a saying that Crawford hopes that Spence's agent Al Haymon can provide a guaranteed remuneration first, that is, pay him a fee in advance, but was rejected. In response, Crawford's former promotionalist Bob Arum made a sarcastic move, thinking that it was inappropriate and unfair to ask Crawford to provide a deposit because he was not Haymon's boxer.
Arum emphasized that Haymon is Spence's agent, not Crawford's agent, and it makes no sense for Crawford to expect a margin.
In Arum's view, margin is a major obstacle to Spence and Crawford's inability to contribute to the war. Crawford left Arum last year, which made some things even harder. Arum believes that if Crawford is still his boxer, there will be a great chance to contribute to the battle with Spence. Arum has worked with Haymond's PBC before, such as the second and third battles of Tyson Fury VS Deontay Wilder.
Arum said: "I don't know what happened, but I always doubt whether they can make a big fight because Crawford has no broker or promoter. To achieve such a deal, you have to work with a preparer to give you a big guarantee compensation. Crawford looked at Al Haymon and asked the other party to provide a guarantee compensation, but for Crawford, it's not appropriate. You have to know that you have nothing to do with Haymon. Spence is another matter to get a big guarantee compensation. He It is a boxer under Haymond, so from the beginning this is a real problem. "
Arum added: "All boxers have unrealistic expectations for money, this is the essence of the movement, I don't care how the outside world evaluates my point of view, I just want the game to happen. I think the battle between Spence vs. Crawford may be staged, hopefully in the future."
At present, Crawford has been with the emerging media BLK Prime signs, and he will make a live broadcast on the other party’s platform. Crawford signed several matches with BLK Prime and is unknown, but the next one will be on December 10 to face European boxing champion David Arvanes Rock. It is understood that Crawford has received a guaranteed remuneration provided by the organizer, or this is the biggest difference between "mother-in-law children" and "mother-in-law children".
Arum said: "I was shocked by Crawford VS Arwanes Rock on the BLK Prime platform, which was somewhat unexpected, but before the official confirmation, I heard some news, there was nothing to blame, after all, Professional boxing is a business, if Crawford did not leave me, I think I would work well with PBC."
There are rumors that BLK In order to celebrate the signing of Crawford, Prime prepared a "big gift" for him, that is, in the battle with Arvanes Rock, Crawford will receive a reward of up to $10 million. However, the outside world doubted the authenticity of this matter. After all, Crawford was average in the past, and $10 million was definitely a sky-high price. Maybe BLK Prime will lose money. In response, Arum joked: "If Crawford could get $10 million to fight Arvanes Rock, he should have changed his name to Jesse James (American robber, with a lot of money)."
