      When did this happen?

      Edit: Had to be done, Khan is still being managed by Haymon, Eddie tweeted recently that he had been in discussion with Haymon to give Khan the bigger split (following Khans recent go on twitter).

      Quite clearly still working with Haymon.

        Crawford isn't a big name, you're right, but it would be one h3ll of a retirement fight.

        Twice with Pac on PPV, so are we really counting that 3 times?

          Of course, why would you not count it as 3 times? They were 2 separate fights with Pacquiao and then 1 with JMM, all on PPV.

            I'm gonna go out on a limb and say it's because Khan whines and *****es like a spoiled brat or a ditched girlfriend.

              It doesn't matter who Pac fight, it's going to be a PPV event just because of his fan base. The only reason Marquez and Bradley made PPV is because of the KO Marquez gave Pac the fight before. Without Pac or that KO, Bradley would never have made it to PPV up to this point.

              Now do you want to count Bradley PPV status his or his opponents is all I'm saying? That's like saying Algieri is PPV status because he fought Pac. If that's the case, Khan can't be held at fought because he fought a PPV star.

                Pacquiao-Bradley III ain't worth much if Walters-Uchiyama isn't in there.

                Walters and Uchiyama are the guys that deserve the big paydays for an awesome fight people want to see.

                  If he fights again on PPV and sells well then yes, I'd say his PPV status fighter.

                  Bradley is as PPV a status as you can be without being called Pacquiao, Mayweather, Cotto or Canelo.

                    When a guy uses an unmistakably labeled Cold war era map to show why The Philippines isn't a Third World country, it's better to simply not reply to that person.

                    Thanks for being one of the cool people that know and understand that Wikipedia isn't the answer for everything lol

Of the 3, Bradley IMO is the least threat, and maybe why Pac chose him. Either Crawford or Khan would've been the most threat to Pac, but probably Crawford THE most for having a slightly better chin... but then who is faster Crawford or Khan?

                      As for the outcome, I'm thinking even if it's too close for comfort, they'll give it to Pac as a going away present. But it won't be needed as IMO he dominates.

                      Squire, I said Bradley was the LEAST threat to Pac. And either Khan, Pac, or Crawford would've been Floydie's biggest threat. Oh and, try to grow up. This isn't still jr. high there friend.
