There’s no urgency for Terence Crawford. His boxing record has given him the right to turn down offers, and he did just that when Conor McGregor put him a crazy two-fight offer.

Crawford talked about his chat with McGregor in a video that he posted alongside YouTuber Bernie the Boxer.Crawford and McGregor were scheduled to square off twice, once in the boxing ring and once in the UFC Octagon.

“They offered me the fight, and me and Conor got on the phone,” stated Crawford. “I told him that I wouldn’t get into an Octagon with him so that he could kick and elbow me, and he just laughed, saying, ‘Man, I respect that.'” But we would profit handsomely. It’s not always about the money. I’m capable of earning money, but you’re not going to kick me, buddy.”

McGregor claims that the agreement would be for $200 million, or $100 million for each bout. It’s simple to understand how those figures are reasonable estimates if they’re released in conjunction with the announcement of Dana White’s latest boxing contract.This is particularly true if Turki Alalshikh from Riyadh Season steps in to assist in making the fantasy battle happen. Crawford has only a small history in wrestling, and McGregor has never been a fighter who seeks to finish opponents. But as Crawford pointed out, he needs to be ready for knees, elbows, thrusts from the shoulder, and kicks in the Octagon. In the boxing ring, too, Bud would have a huge advantage.
