A fan @Oggi62404973 felt that it makes no sense for Crawford to sign with Mayweather. The fan also mentioned that Crawford could get the fight on his own being his own boss.
Why would Bud sign with Floyd if he could get the fight by himself being his own boss.
Signing with Floyd doesn’t make any sense.

Similarly, user @ReignBlak also felt that Crawford was better off without Mayweather. He also felt that Mayweather should mind his own business.

Another fan @alessan44368016 mentioned that Crawford would not fight Spence if he signs with Mayweather’s productions. He even advised Crawford to stay a free agent.
He’ll never fight Spence if he does. Mayeeather fighters never fight outside his promotion. Don’t do it @terencecrawford. Stay as a free agent

However, Mayweather was also able to garner some support from his fans.
A fan @Carl58995142 felt that the signing would be a good idea. He even mentioned that it was a win-win situation.
The fan, however, was quick to add that there should be no hate when Crawford tops Mayweather’s record.
It’s would be a win win on both sides. I just don’t want no hating to come when Crawford tops Mayweather record. This is the dilemma. Get that cleared up then go and jump in his camp. Win win for both.

There were a few hysterical fan reactions as well.
User @MrSober4 hilariously compared the welterweight division to Mortal Combat.
The welterweight division of boxing is starting to remind me of Mortal Kombat.
