Speaking to Fight Hype, The Money said: "The pound-for-pound top fighter in boxing right now is Terence Crawford.
"He doesn't have to be under my company to give a guy props. I'm not like that. If he's a free agent, I would love to work with him, if he's free."

"I know what I can do to take him to that next level. Hell of a fighter, he's one of the guys that - he's a motherf****r.
"He reminds me of a young Floyd Mayweather. He can fight his a** off. That's what I like about him."
