Terence Crawford bragged on social media in the present day, saying he’s going to “make historical past” and may herald a crowd of 90,000 at Memorial Stadium in Lincoln, Nebraska. Provided that the stadium ONLY seats 85,458, it will appear that Crawford is making up nonsense out of skinny air. I’m simply questioning why he didn’t say 200,000.
Crawford says he’ll make historical past, however with how issues are wanting, he may by no means struggle once more. Promoter Eddie Hearn and coach Robert Garcia imagine that the 37-year-old Crawford could retire if he can’t get the Canelo Alvarez struggle.
Is Crawford Dropping Contact?
This fantasy world declare by Crawford of 90,000 followers packing Memorial Stadium is worrisome as a result of it actually has no probability of occurring on this lifetime.
Nobody widespread within the sport can be prepared to exit of there approach to struggle Crawford on his residence turf off the overwhelmed monitor in an space like Lincoln, Nebraska. Out of the areas within the U.S., a celebrity fighter may go do, selecting Nebraska can be the final lengthy the checklist.
Assuming Crawford is severe, he didn’t trouble mentioning who he can be preventing to herald that crowd. It absolutely wouldn’t be Canelo Alvarez as a result of he’s not enthusiastic about preventing him until he’s paid $150 million.
Memorial Stadium Fighters Wanted
- Canelo Alvarez
- Jake Paul
- Jaron Ennis
- Artur Beterbiev
The one fighters widespread sufficient to assist Crawford promote out a big venue like Memorial Stadium can be Canelo or possibly Jake Paul. Crawford ain’t going to get Jake to throw him a bone by giving him a struggle, particularly not in Lincoln.
It’s not like Crawford can be calling the pictures with Jake if the YouTuber was , and there absolutely isn’t. Why on earth would Jake Paul need to waste a wonderfully good struggle coming to Lincoln to face a man that solely hardcore boxing has heard of?
If Crawford needed to get followers enthusiastic about his profession, he can be busier, preventing thrice a 12 months and transferring as much as 168 to tackle the large canines. Since he’s not going to do this, all this nonsense about making historical past is an indication that Crawford resides in his fantasy world.
I feel I can do 90,000 at memorial Stadium. I feel ima go on and make historical past simply to make a few of y’all mad as a result of yall be hating.😂 what’s up @UNLincoln @Huskers
