Terence Crawford defeated Israil Madrimov to achieve a title in a fourth division earlier this month. However, boxing commentator and popular YouTube star ShowBizz The Adult feels his fight could not achieve the same level of success. Crawford took on Madrimov in the Riyadh Season Card, which was His Excellency Turki Alalshikh‘s debut event in America. By all regards, the card was stacked from top to bottom.

Big names like Isaac CruzDavid Morrell and Andy Ruiz Jr., all put on blockbuster fights on the same card in Los Angeles. Not to mention, Madrimov managed to push Crawford to his limit in the headlining fight. So, the question is, why does ShowBizz feel the Crawford vs. Madrimov fight was a failure? He points at Crawford alone for the failure while sharing three reasons to justify his claim.

ShowBizz the Adult shared a clip on Instagram, as people have come to know him for, where he discussed the subject. He began by revealing, “I’m hearing through the Grapevine that it may not have cracked 100,000 pay-per-view buys”. It’s worth noting that Jed I. Goodman, a TV executive, reported this initially that the event did somewhere between 75,000 to 100,000 pay-per-view buys, including streaming buys.

In another tweet, he also suggested that the Saudis lost $10 million from the event. However, the official numbers haven’t been revealed as of the time of writing. ShowBizz compared these numbers with what Devin Haney‘s fights would often do. Regardless, the boxing commentator further added, “Terence Crawford is a temporary Champion. If Jermell Charlo comes back, he’s the Super Champ, which is diabolical”.

Jermell Charlo was the former undisputed super welterweight champion, but after he was a no show to purse bids to defend his titles, he was declared a champion in recess. Still, if he does decide to come back, he will have the option to face Crawford to become champion once again. And finally, ShowBizz presented his third point, “His performance against Madrimov lost him the bag, everybody was hyped up for Canelo and Crawford until that s**t”.

In fact, the potential fight will probably never happen since His Excellency has announced he is no longer interested in arranging such a bout after reaching out to Canelo Alvarez’s team with an offer. Not to forget, this has started a beef between Canelo and Alashaikh, which saw the Saudi royal accuse Canelo of avoiding Crawford and David Benavidez. Also, Terence Crawford might just have to start worrying about defending his title against Charlo.

PBC is all set for the Charlo brothers to make their big comeback in 2024. Jermall Charlo, who last fought in November after a long break, has had his share of struggles but is ready to get back into action. There’s talk of him facing off against Caleb Plant, especially after their heated incident in July 2023.

During a conversation with Kurt Emhoff on the Boxing Esq. PodcastTim Smith from PBC, mentioned that they’re totally on board for the Charlo brothers’ returns, saying, “The welcome mat is always out when they’re ready.”

Jermell Charlo, who hasn’t fought since his loss to Canelo Alvarez last September, is also itching to get back in the ring. Smith added, “They’vuse got to let us know when they’re ready, and then we’ll make sure that they get back in the ring.” Fans should get ready for some exciting matchups as both brothers look to make a splash in the boxing world again.

Purely from the points ShowBizz the Adult presented in his video, it’s hard to argue why that might not be the case. However, the event itself was undeniably quite entertaining, and since it was only the first of its kind from His Excellency, future events could change the narrative. Do you think the fight was a total failure?
