    Yep it cant generate that kind of money .

    The way it is now in boxing fighters should get a percentage of the money generated so the promotion and boxing win, big demands that cant be made is just cutting their own nose off, if you cant draw the paying viewers you dont deserve these kinda figures, not just TCs but Mannys 20mill also.

      He didn't get $20 million for the Vargas fight. He certainly won't get it for a Horn or Burns fight. So why is he insisting on $20 mil for Crawford?

        The fight wouldn't happen in Omaha though and his PPV vs. Postol proves that no one is paying to watch him fight so if I was Crawford I would jump all over $4-5M. Plus if he wins, he can start demanding consistently high purses from Bob.

          No idea tbh. Bob/Roach are always flip-flopping, I know Pacman had a guarantee with TR but not sure about the details, hard to tell with these guys lying all the time.

            Pacquiao wants 20 million because he knows that Crawford is a risk, and that he knows what it could be. Him vs ODLH rehash.

            That's why he would be fine beating Horn or Burns to the tune of 5-10m because he is 100% confident that he would KO both of them.

            I'm still at a shock as to why the Broner fight never got made. Arum couldn't be that ******. Easy money for both guys, good PPV numbers, and a certain Pacquiao win over a name guy.

                The fight doesn't have to be in Omaha.

                Crawford fans in Nebraska would buy the Manny vs Crawford PPV.

                Terrence should not sell himself short.

                  There are no certain wins in boxing as you should well know.

                    That doesn't mean the PPV breaks 500K though. When's the last time Pacquaio broke 500K without Mayweather? They can hope for a combined $27M purse ($20M Pacquiao, $7M Crawford) but I'd be surprised if anyone promoter would put up even half of that. Too bad, it would be a hell of a fight.

MANY, MANY top fighters have lost to guys no one would believe they could lose to and ESPECIALLY at Pac's age. If not, then if he fights Horn or a lessor fighter, I will bet 20 bucks against your car or your house that Pac loses. Sure, I will most likely lose the 20 bucks but I doubt like hell you are so sure Pac would win that you would take that bet. Dont kid yourself into thinking otherwise because many super fights have never made it to the table because a star lost to a tune-up fighter or a low risk fighter. You are in la la land if you think otherwise.
                      Whatever you say buddy. You think Arum is risking making money off Pac? Open your eyes. He will NEVER LOSE to these guys, unless he fights a top fighter, than he has a risk
