    Purse split ain't holding up the fight. Guaranteed money is holding up the fight.
    Haymon is offering less than bud made for porter. That's the problem.

    You can't pay canelo 40 million and plant 10 million for canelo vs plant. And they didn't even crack 1 million ppv buys. And think your gonna pay 10 million combined for spence vs crawford.

    Haymon owes it to spence to do whatever it takes to get him his legacy fight.

    10 million a piece is what the fighters deserve for this risk. Not 5 million a piece.

      Especially since he is not much of a draw.

      Haney made more as the B side for his undisputed than jermell made as the A side for his undisputed. What does that tell you.


      Haymon is cheap af. This isn't the old pbc. They fight once per year now because the money is gone. Haymon gives low guarantees and pays the rest after ppv. Crawford ain't going for it. Errol and bud deserve career high paydays.

        Why do so many losers on boxing forums want to argue about splits? Get a life.

        None of it makes sense.

        Spence makes $10m(?) V Crawford, or $2m v someone else.
        ​​​​​​​Fury makes $50m v AJ of $10m v someone else.

        The split is irrelevant, you're losing money if you fight someone else. It's simple.

        ​​​​​​​Good fights should just be 50/50. Get t f on with it. Boring.

          We can't ignore the actual sales numbers just because Bob Arum couldn't promote Crawford in a similar way to Spence.

          If Joshua can humble himself and accept 60-40 then Crawford damn well better do it too. Otherwise it's his fault that we didn't get this fight.
          it's a 50/50, and it can't be made bc they know they can pull a fast one on Bob Arum Pet Rock Fans like yourself. It's like Ronnie Shields saying Andrade is a nobody so Charlo doesn't have to fight him for 7 million but Benavidez father and manager (video posted on his site) turn around and say we would need that 7 million to fight Andrade b/c he is an Olympian and a dangerous. fight. Which is the real story or which is the pet rock rug pull? See how Pet Rock Fans miss the smallest things. Thank you, Uncle Bob.

            You mean Joshua who got knocked out by morbidly obese Andy Ruiz and just melted down after losing to Usyk twice.

            Bud Crawford is more accomplished than Spence in every single way.

            He's a 3 division champion, undefeated, and is rated higher P4P than Spence on 95% of polls.

            All Spence has is PBC feeding popular Hispanic fighters to him, while boxing Bud out of the biggest WW fights because he was with Arum.

            You could argue Bud should take 45% at the worst and that's only because Spence has all the other belts

            That's it.

              Again, skill and accomplishments don't determine purse splits.

              Otherwise Floyd would never have been the B-side to Arturo Gatti.
