Crawford is confident that things will get sorted between the pair. However, what does that say about his future fights? ‘Bud’ has confirmed that he does not need to fight Errol Spence Jr.
However, this fight is one fight the fans want to see and it would do well on the commercial side of things. Thus, Bob Arum will want to make it happen.
