Fight has been officially shut down by Arum.
Sad news, but oh well. Arum now says it's back to the original 3, Crawford (lol?), Bradley, and Khan.

Does anyone take Dontae seriously? He is one of the most biased and maybe racist Youtuber. He passes his opinion as facts. I don't care for his "sources".
That's why I didn't watch the vid once I saw the Dontae symbol
Too many people are quick to throw Broner under the bus for this fight, I on the other hand will not. Broner isn't a push over. Pacquaio fans would really hate life if Broner some how KO'ed Pacqauio

It's crazy how Broner has become a easy opponent.
Just a few years ago he was the next Floyd.
He is the easiest option out of the possible Pac Opponents.
List goes like this
1. Crawford
2. Bradley
3. Khan
4. Postol
5. Matthysse
6. Broner
Should be entertaining if it happens.
honestly tho i think broner gives pac a better fight then most everyone else and i also think it will be the best broner ever looked. got think it will be his best training camp ever.
guess this ruins my broner roach combo dream lol.
u guys can hate all you want but lets be honest the build up will be great and the fight will be entertaining as hell however it ends up it will be entertaining
Broner has the counter right hand to give Manny fits...
Crawford is a better fighter than Broner. Broner sucks, always has and probably always will.
If I wanted to watch Pacquiao beating a guy with chin, the Margarito fight is only one YouTube search away.
Because this a boxing forum and we're allowed to post our thoughts on upcoming match ups. My opinion on this fight is that it sucks and I'm not interested in seeing it.
If you wanna menstruate about it, please do, it's an open forum after all.
They will because you know Broner will talk a lot of **** before the fight.
Plus it's a chance to see Pac beating a guy who uses shoulder roll.
What a compelling fight :headbang:
Who has Crawford beat to make him better than Broner? Broner was WAY more impressive as a lightweight than Bud. Broner is also faster, hits harder and has a better chin. I hope Broner fights Crawford and you get a ****ing wake up call.
Team Pacquiao being after money in the last fight of his career, gee what a shocker! It's called cashing out, bro.
Could be right, but I think it's legit.
That all goes away when Arum finally retires or steps down. That other guy who is under Arum (forget his name) is willing to work with Haymon.
Well, Haymon is Broner's adviser after all. I'm sure he'll advise him to go for it. Broner does have About Billions Promotions by the way.
:lol1:
Broner doesn't have the name or leverage like Floyd did to demand his promotion be the main promoter and even Floyd for years had a promotion company that was in name only it wasn't until this time last year after the golden boy split that he actually filled for a promotional license so he could put on shows with him as the lead promoter. Broner could have about billions promotions or whatever else he wants to call it. He's not licensed and can't put on his own shows. If he gets the fight this entire promotion will be on HBO under top rank without any of haymon control and damn sure not no About Billions Promotions lol
I guess Pacquiao wants to end his career giving out a serious beating, he's entitled to that.

Boxing is business. Crawford has a history of stinking up the place even in front of a hometown crowd. One guy got banned by HBO, in fact. Pac would get blamed for it. If you're saying Pac is scared of Crawford, forget it. He just fought the best evah, chased him like he's an ordinary fighter, made him run and clinch. Some like Mosley, Sugar Ray, etc. though he won. And the superstar veteran is scared of an inexperienced Crawford? Forget it. Tsk, tsk... Broner is entertainment by himself. Believe me, if they picked Crawford you'll sing a different tune, he's inexperienced, he's a 140 guy, etc. etc.
But I think they'll go for Bradley. Thanks, Bob.
If by "stinking up the joint" you mean "use movement and defense" I would agree. But by no means am I going to hold it against Pac if he chooses Broner, who is way more popular than Crawford, which in term leads to more revenue gained. I remember going to work the day after the Broner - Maidana fight and people that don't even watch boxing were talking about it.
Check most of the places that reported that Crawford is no longer in the running. Most if not all claimed that Crawford wasn't even Pac's first nor was a "favorable" choice by Pac to begin with. Even Koncz admits this back in October.
Koncz: Crawford isn’t Pacquiao’s first choice for next fight

Oh sources really. Any links or are you just making **** up?

A couple of sources claimed Pacquiao had wanted NO PART whatsoever of Crawford. Especially after seeing how dominant he was in his last fight. Crawford is 100% out of the running according to most sources.
Oh sources really. Any links or are you just making **** up?
why not maidana vs pacquiao?
sad part is, broner vs pacquiao is better than bradley pacquiao.
Maidana is retired, he weighs close to 200 lbs.
This is a perfect fight for the Philippines, so instead of slow mo videos and ivs scandals to reassure them that Manny somehow beat Floyd, they'll have him beating up Li'l Bruh. Oh God, it'll be great, it'll be just like Manny beat Floyd. YES IT WILL BE TOO! Most likely it'll up the sperm count and prevent more ladyboys in the long run, fvcking FANTASTIC!
:lol1: :lol1:
Top Rank has already gone on record and said this was a fantasy, would never happen. And I believe that before I believe a video from a guy who was stocking shelves before he started making boxing videos for youtube.
Could you provide a source? Why did Koncz personally contact Broner (both parties confirm) about the fight?
I still don't see the fight as realistic...
What'd Donate say in the video? I'm not gonna click on it, i feel like it offers nothing new and it's just his opinion being passed off as news
He said that he talked to "sources extremely close to the situation". Perhaps an Al Haymon associate? Sam?
Some dumb sh*t. I couldn't watch.
Just remember it was dumb, I would love to see Manny light Broner up though.
Wow, you might need to lay off the booze. You can't even remember what's being said in a video that short?
why is koncz calling broner then? i agree its highly
dontae doesnt have any new source (didnt even watch vid) but broner said he talked to him personally
Well, if you had watched the video you'd know that Dontae cited "sources extremely close to the situation". Believe at your own will.
