    So are u saying that spence agreed to a 50/50 split in this fight?

      Yeah, I guess I don't really trust Crawford or PBC to tell the truth lol. It seems pretty weird that there couldn't be a minimum guarantee for both guys. Isn't it standard to know how much you're fighting for? I think its very strange that some startup can pay Bud $10 million to fight Avenesyan. How are they making their money? Not by PPV, that's for sure.

            Yeah, that was the first time I've seen $8 million being the guarantee. Do I believe it? Hmmm. I only saw it in the comments section lol.

              thats a good direct question to ask to both spence and crawford, were u going to be guaranteed 8 mil each for the fight?

                  Bud will say anything to save face at this point. Take his word with a grain of salt.

                      Now imagine if Crawford gave transparency of the Hedgefund that offered “$50 million”. That would be even better, no?
