“If it’s Crawford that Top Rank wants for Manny Pacquiao, then we’ll fight Crawford but we want a guarantee of $20-million,” said Pacquiao adviser Mike Koncz told Manila Bulletin after conferring with his boss.
The $20-M payday, of course, will be outside the revenue that Pacquiao will receive in the pay-per-view and other sources of income like TV rights, closed circuit and ticket sales, additional money that should jack up his earnings.
20 mill doesn't even sound like a big ask, but I guess it depends on how bad Top Rank/HBO wanna make that fight. HBO gave Floyd 40 mil to fight Ortiz. I actually think Pac could get more out of this if the big heads really wanna make the fight.
just fight him you prick, stop being a diva, youve made enough money over the years to be dragging your feet over this
I agree. This is similar to Floyd avoiding Lara, except that there's never any pressure put on him from his rabid loyal fans. Fans that like to claim they love the science doe. Funniest part was when they say Lara don't bring no money to the table doe. He's boring doe. Not one of them was saying, "Floyd doe, you've made enough money already, why you want Lara to bring money on table doe?"
Writer of the article doesn't know the difference between Carlos Molina and John Molina?
Whatever.
At this point, Pac gets whatever price he wants or they should kiss his azz.
He earned it and Crawford is not enough of a name to demand anything but a shot.
