Crawford’s Payday Expectations
Some followers imagine that the 36-year-old Crawford (40-0, 31 KOs) is holding out for an eight-figure payday of $10-15 million to be given him for his subsequent combat, and that ain’t taking place. That was a one-time factor, and it was due to Spence.
Crawford has been on an prolonged victory lap, nonetheless reliving the glory of his win over the ring-rusty, weight-drained Errol Spence final July, making a giant deal out of it quite than returning to work. It’s mind-boggling how Crawford is milking that one win.
Are you able to think about if everybody took a yr off after having one good day on the job? The place would all of us be? I can’t perceive as a result of that sort of habits is alien to me.
Ennis: The Solely Viable Possibility
Whether or not Crawford desires to confess it to himself or not, Boots Ennis is his solely probability for an excellent payday. He can overlook about getting the sort of dough that he acquired for his final combat in opposition to Errol Spence Jr. final July as a result of that’s not taking place.
Terence is not going to get that sort of dough for a proper with Boots Ennis (31-0, 28 KOs), which is a far riskier combat than those he’s been focusing on in opposition to Sebastian Fundora and Tim Tszyu.
Crawford would love Canelo Alvarez to bless him with a golden parachute retirement payday, however that’s not taking place. As quickly Crawford places that loopy notion out of his head, he can snap again to actuality and take the combat with Boots.
Clock’s Ticking, Terence
If Crawford stays out of the ring lengthy sufficient, followers will overlook about him, and he gained’t have the ability to make huge cash. He’ll simply be seen as one other Keith Thurman kind who fights on uncommon events and is barely remembered by older followers.
“I’m unsure. He mentioned a number of occasions he’s not wanting my method; I’m not a large enough identify. However there’s no person else left for him to combat.
