Boxer Terence Crawford’s Trainer Shuts Down Comeback Rumors: ‘I Want Him To Be Done’

Terence Crawford’s gym footage sparked comeback talk, but his longtime trainer says the former champion is staying retired.

Brian “BoMac” McIntyre addressed speculation after Crawford trained with super middleweight Lester Martinez. “Bud done, man. He said he done,” McIntyre told The Last Stand. “I respect his decision and I want him to be done because he had nothing else to prove in the sport.”

McIntyre said Crawford was only helping Martinez. “Terence Crawford is not coming back,” he said. “Bud just like to stay in the gym.”

“His best thing is, let the man stay in retirement and ride off in the sunset,” McIntyre added.

Crawford retired at 38 with a 42-0 record and 31 knockouts, saying he was “walking away as a great with nothing else left to prove.”

“I wanted Bud to retire after Spence,” McIntyre revealed. Crawford later told him, “We gonna go up and fight Canelo,” before they went to “make history.”

David “Flat” Sparks advised, “Ride off into the sunset.”

“One of the greats, man,” McIntyre said. “Bud never turned his back on any fight, and he accomplished what no man has ever done before.”
