“The Money Don’t Change Him”: Terence Crawford’s Gesture in Support of Green Bay Packers Draws Mixed Reactions From Fans

As it appears, things seem a bit dour for the Green Bay Packers. Following last week’s win over the Dallas Cowboys, they faced the San Francisco 49ers at Levi Stadium in Santa Clara, California. It’s certain to weigh heavily on the heart of one of its most devoted and die-hard fans. Early in the morning, Terence Crawford shared a few pictures of himself.

A keen follower of the Wisconsin-based football team, not long ago, ‘Bud’ entertained fans with whacky notes as the Packers went on to overpower the Cowboys. For today, the unified welterweight champion had worn a Packers outfit in the most resplendent green and gold. He said, “Yall know the vibes!!! Go Pack Go!!!” It didn’t take too long for reactions to pour in.

Among those who commented, a few questioned his choice of jersey. There were some who, for obvious reasons, stood at the opposite end of the fence and wished for the 49ers’ victory. Then a couple of fans stuck with what their icon does best, in the ring.

In an apparent dig at the world champion, the following user found it awkward that he couldn’t wear a jersey with his name.

But soon ‘Bud’ responded that gear was a gift he received from someone, and he found it fabulous to go with.

Echoing almost similar lines, this user also mentioned how one could simply miss taking any notice of Terence Crawford and then come to the realization that he is the best boxer in the world.

Clearly, that’s one ecstatic bunch. As far as the match is concerned, the Packers lost the divisional playoff to the 49ers, 21-24. Nevertheless, signing off for the day, ‘Bud’ Crawford wrote, “Dam, that was a good game. Wish we could have got the win, but dam, this one hurts. Good night!

The 36-year-old Omaha-born boxing superstar recently announced his return to the gym. Fans last saw him in the ring on July 29, when he defeated Errol Spence Jr. As it appears, a mouth-watering line-up against middleweight champion Tim Tszyu could be underway. It’s a fight that’s seemingly feasible given ‘Bud’ needs to climb only a division above.
