    And HBO will not televise the bout, Arum said, declining to elaborate the TV plans beyond calling it a coming “blockbuster announcement.”

    One possibility floated by a veteran fight-maker is that ESPN could emerge as a pay-per-view distributor for Pacquiao-Vargas.

    Arum said Pacquiao (58-6-2, 38 KOs) has agreed not to demand a guaranteed purse in excess of $25 million as he’s done during prior bouts on his contract with the promoter.

    “We’re not talking about those kind of crazy numbers,” Arum said.
    Manny Pacquiao’s choice of Jessie Vargas as a comeback opponent in November isn’t so much about the belt or the purse he’ll gain.

        This proves even more that Kellerman is an HBO lapdog. When he found out Manny wasn't going to be on HBO he attacked him. All of his attacks are against non-HBO fighters. He has no credibility.

          That was an "attack?" he didn't attack him, he called it like it was, he called it like Manny flat out said himself...he's coming back for money first and foremost. There's nothing disrespectful in that.

                i think vargas KO's berto.

                but yes, this is a pathetic fight.

                only way this fight is forgiven in the future is if pacquiao eventually fights crawford or the floyd rematch happens.

                  Berto vs Mayweather was 10x worse. You're talking about the #1 P4P, the best eva, no loses. And he picked Berto. That fight should have been on free tv.

                    Disagree. Prior to that they discussed Manny/Crawford on 1st take and Max talked about Manny always taking on the best guys and was very complimentary.

                    Once it was Vargas and HBO wasn't doing it, he killed the fight calling it a cash grab and then topping thta by saying Manny was taking the lesser fight for less money, completely contradicting what he said previously.
