Why didn't HBO or Showtime offer Pacquiao a fight deal?

[The Raw Dog]

The dude makes in the ballpark of $20 million when he fights, that's not exactly "short money" where I'm from.

Manny Pacquiao made a lot of people, myself included, fans of boxing. He will have a following for as long as he continues to fight, in America or elsewhere.

The NSAC has already verified his less than 10mil guarantees, and his own country wrote a article a few years ago stating the guys net worth was only 26mil. Fans drink too much KoolAid to look at the facts, and unfortunately just because you follow Paquiao still, doesn't mean he's as relevant to others as he once was.

This has been explained many times, his NSAC guarantee =/= his full guarantee. Per Rafael, he's been making 26m+ since JMM 3 at least.

Is that why HBO didn't want to do business with Golden Boy anymore is because they was laughing so hard. Ask HBO do they wish they had Mayweather vs Canelo only a liar would say no hell why do you think Time Warner is holding out on this dispute for so long.

Y?

Lets be real nobody knows what the Guerrero fight made or lost everything is rumor. And neither CBS or Showtime is worried money they are trying to rebuild back there boxing brand and guess what its working. Floyd will only fight on PPV so that has nothing to do with there regular boxing budget. The more fighters you can have as PPV stars the more you can build up fighter like Mares or Santa Cruz. The Broner PPV is a feeler to see what type of drawing power he has.

Pure speculation... Like u said above nobody really knows...
