That doesn't sound like Manny but he's 100% correct. Manny is still a warrior, ready and willing to lay it on the line for legacy

It's funny watching PBC fan boys say "ohh uh yeah Crawford is the top dog, Spence isn't as good"

I say TC has ducked again just like 7 years ago when Pacquiao was at his peak of his powers offered team crawford the fight and team Crawford refused by saying "Pacquiao must go down to 140lbs or no fight".

Crawford should have signed the contract because the princes and princesses will not give their sponsored money if the contract has not been signed that's how they do it in that country.---This is why team Pacquiao had already signed it before hand. Why not sign it? There is neither a rule there that fighters will be jailed if they sign it before hand nor they will be forced to fight with or without money if they sign it. Just sign it so that the sponsor can see that the fight is serious and not some swindler's idea. The contract with a pot money of 50 million was offered to Pacquiao--so Manny said I got 40 million and 10 million for Crawford because he is the A-side--it doesn't matter if that fighter was Crawford, Mikey Garcia or Errol Spence. If a pot money of 50 million was in the bag--Pacquiao would like to take 40 million or more and 10 million or less for any other fighter not named chavez sr., dela hoya, floyd. That's the story. Crawford ducked Pacquiao AGAIN by not signing the contract.

He wanted 40 mill for TC and walked when Arum couldn't raise the money, he accepted 5 ml for Spence and his team has been making statements that Spence is still got an issue with the car wreck ,,,,,,,,, Now what does that say to you, legacy or ducking TC ? why didn't TC get a go at 5mill , smells to high heaven if you ask me.

I remember that. It was really, really odd for Crawford's team to take that position.

Bud can't claim to be best without win over spence. If Pac beats spence, Pac has beat the best 2 wws in thurman and spence

Lmao froid and his fangirls so mad

[landotter]

Both scenarios can be true. This time last year he was trying to fight McGregor until he got beat up.

That is the most legit post I have ever read. Pacquiao has been known, at least earlier in his career, to be a big spender. So the idea of paydays to secure his future have to be driving him.

But Spence?? That is a legacy fight. Even a loss will be looked fondly on considering his age and resume. Two things can be true at once.

Floyd didn't fight Logan Paul for a payday, he did it for his legacy.

Is the Spence fight still gonna happen though?

Tell us again how brilliant you are, Mayweather. You're a regular Ashke**** ***.
