Crawford - Horn postponed

Crawford has a hand injury which looks set to put the fight back a couple of months. Disappointing - not because this is a fight to look forward to especially, but because it would be good to get it out of the way so that Crawford can move on to bigger and better things.

Re: Crawford - Horn postponed

 

and to be put off 2 months bodes ill for a fight no one cares about.

 

True, but its a mandatory.

 

The truth is this: this "matchup" will not sell - Pac/Matthysse will (and Pac's insisting this happens in the Philippines but negotiations are not complete yet), so stalling for time Uncle Bob has now seen a triple-header opportunity. Ancajas/Sultan (Crawford/Horn co-main event) are both Filipino and are now postponed by default. So if Uncle Bob puts on Pac/Matthysse + Ancajas/Sultan in the Philippines on Doce de Junio weekend (Philippines Indep day, June 12) and bolts onto it Crawford/Horn he now has a money spinner.

 

Shall we watch this space?

--- Speaking of Arum last night, he was pretty philosophical and settled after last nights action in this Ring interview. Didn't mention the upcoming manny/Matthesse bout unless I missed it in my scan, so here 'Tis including Crawford/Horn.
