Crawford about to get his payday

[mwulf]

A big jump in weight and opposition and money. Glad he can get a big payday before retirement

A big jump in weight. This makes it more dangerous than anything else.

I'll be in Crawford's corner regardless as a proud Nebraskan.

Also just to add I'm surprised by the lack of engagement.

Nebraska is home to not only the world champ, pound for pound number 1 in the sport, but someone that is attempting what Mayweather, Ali, Foreman, and other greats couldn't achieve, and you don't hear anything.

Maybe woman's volleyball is more exciting?

He’s got to gain more weight 😮
He has to train at that weight for the next 6mos so he’s used to it, ganna be tough.

Boxing did this to itself. I'm not paying PPV to watch boxing. So my interest reflects that.

Will always root for a Nebraskan athlete but the stories I've heard about his kids and their behaviors make me cringe. One of many reasons I'm glad I'm not teaching in OPS

I will be in Vegas on fight night. Can't wait.
Let's go Champ.

Back before we had 10 different all sports channels, ABC Wide World of Sports and CBS Sports Spectacular gave us a variety of sports with plenty of boxing. And people paid attention. Now boxing gets more coverage than ever but who in the hell is watching? And then I've also heard it said that boxing and wrestling were the most popular sports in the early days of TV since it was so easy to view on those small black & white TV sets.

Are you buying tickets to Nebraska sports?

I hope this schedule holds true and the fight happens. We have a fight party out in the country every time Bud fights. Always a blast. This will be the biggest party yet

Yes

I think Terence is getting in over his head in weight but he's going to get paid. He deserves it. Also Jake Paul getting used a bargaining chip 😅

I agree, theres weight divisions for a reason. Crawford is right up there in best pound for pound but thats a huge jump. Crawford isn't that big of a guy, not sure why he'd put his undefeated record on the line.

Terence looked great at 147 destroying Spence but at 168, this looks like a payday and retire to me.

 

[huntered]

payday yes. count bud out no way. gets beat around sure but knockout blows work on all sorts of heads.

 

[cubsker]

I know of at least one boxing expert that thinks Bud will win.

 

[RedTheGreat]

Yes

Gotcha, well spend your money where you want. I'll be supporting the champ and I'll be happy to pay for it.

Putting boxing on PPV has led to less interest in the sport, IMO. That is what I'm saying.

Until you get a regular broadcast partner willing to commit to the sport along with minimizing promoters control, it ain't happening.

It isn't the boxers fault here it's the game they have to play.

I just want to say I likely agree with you more than you think, however I'm not going to stand on my nuts to make a point when a Nebraska champ needs our support.
