This is the MOST ridiculously humble and down to earth episode I have ever seen, dude got his necessities sorted and then spent the rest on his family and the local community with the gym, in fact he spent more on his family and others than himself, totally selfless and no stupid spending on jewellery or unnecessary expenditure, its incredible.

Let's be honest, it is not like he cashed big in his career.
In addition to his family, him buying the building he trains in was not just for himself. He offers free boxing and wrestling training for children and youth in Omaha through his B&B Academy.

Smart not to waste it on cars and jewellery straight away. Securing his family’s future with properties and making sure his community was looked after is unreal.

This is one real dude. Solid
Bud is a family oriented true boxing champ that chose the wise approach to manage money! Love this guy!
Bud is a very rare type of guy you barely see nowadays
Him and Jalen Hurts had the best ones so far. Real humble individuals, wish to see more like those.
Reason why I’m huge Terrance Crawford fan is because he’s a real blue collar dude!! Look at him still living in Omaha and he’s just looks ordinary. He is humble and I appreciate him for that.
All respect to Crawford after seeing this. Didn't realise how down to earth this person is😊
Spent more on homes for his family than his own. Hope they appreciate it. Alot of them don't.

He's declipened outside and inside ring. And so simple person. I like this guy. Such simplicity and humbleness. But beast in the ring.
I love it. Wishing you continued success champ!!! I'll holla at you and Spence at the weigh-in.
Such a humble dude, he deserves everything coming to him 🙏🏾❤

Had to comment "you're a legend already bro...looked after everyone in the fam and a free gym for the community "🙏🏼💯 Bless the late owners wife she knew you was saviour aswell 🙌
And I also noticed that with Terrence first million dollars he didn’t buy any super cars. He didn’t buy any expensive jewelry. I love this guy.
Came here after his win over Spence.. he made history. Much love and respect Crawford
Taking care of the family. Awesome guy.
Giving back to his family that’s say a lot about Bud💪🏾
Real one 👌🏾🔥 he deserves everything he gets.
He deserves to win the fight. Peak Humility and Compassion. He fights for those who deserve to be fought for, never for himself.
Terence Crawford is a real humble respectful guy, happy to see him shining in boxing, his match with Spence will be incredible 👏👏👏
Love Bud Been saying he’s the guy for years nice to see him finally getting his due
His humility is amazing! His mindset is why he sits on top…
This dude never ceases to amaze me. Bud is truly the People’s champ.
I mean show me a better way to spend a million and i’ll show you someone who doesn’t deserve a cent What a wonderful person and son ❤
Terrance is a gentleman and what a fight!
So selfless. He's truly a special individual who had no guidance with money and yet spent it in a way most could say was responsible.
This guy is honestly amazing. I want him to win every fight.
Hard not to love Bud. Great to see him getting so much love after the Spence win.
Seeing what he did to my favourite fighter and seeing how humble dis dude is makes me respect him even more he made sure he took care or his people first before himself 😤
Never thought boxing would make this type of comeback, and it's mainly because of this dude. So many great fighters spanning many backgrounds, i hope they dont mess this up.
This makes me like him even more. Smartest money spent by an athlete I’ve seen in awhile
I like this guy. Very humble. This is what I call a Champion. 😊
I’ve always been a fan but the more I learn about this dude the more love I have for him…mad respect!!! 💯🥊

Respect to Bud looking after his family investment in family is priceless
He spends more for his people than him self. Much respect
Smart inside the ring, smart in finances as well. He sets himself for success, respect.
His skills and talent alone deserves more than a million dollar
Now this is real , grounded, smart and humble. I love it.
This is what I would do as an athlete. Smart very smart. Invest in yourself, your family your future. Way to go champ.
Impossible not to like Bud, and he's the real deal.
Earned a respect, Crawford is very humble & family oriented with a beast sleeping inside him.
The most humble,family oriented P4P king of the ring,Respect!
What a legend and a down to earth guy. Glad you're the champ bud after beating spence 👏💙
