Bob Arum does not share the opinion of Terence Crawford (37-0, 18 KOs), who accuses him of not fulfilling his role as promoter.

Asked by The Athletic if he would be interested in renewing his contract with his star, the head of Top Rank said: "I could buy myself a house in Beverly Hills for what I lost in his last three fights."

“Crawford should start selling like Lopez, Stevenson, Mayweather, Pacquiao. If he doesn't, then who the hell would be interested in him? He may be the best in the world, but I'm not going to go bankrupt by promoting him,” Arum said. 

Terence Crawford defeated Kell Brook by TKO in the fourth round on Saturday and defended his WBO welterweight belt. It is possible that the American will return to the ring in Qatar in a duel with Manny Pacquiao (62-7-2, 39 KOs).
