    i care more about the final result than things like this.

    If he wants to start really high and then accept a lower offer to make the actual fight then fine. If he prices himself out, thats a ****** move.

    He could vary well beat pac and even if he loses, he will have a good showing and the exposure he would get from the fight even in a loss is priceless, plus if its close they could go for a rematch.

    crawford doesnt have the notoriety or draw relative to his skillset right now and thats what he needs to focus on.

    when floyd fought dlh for 20 million, he already fought gatti, and that put his name out to a lot of casuals.

    crawford should either get the biggest names he can, which is probably broner right now or garcia before pac if he wants to demand higher numbers.

      Sure about that?

        If that story is legit Crawford is ******ed. To be fair after seeing the car incident he was in + hearing the story how he allegedly was in (& lost) a street fight with Gary Russell I think he might be legit ******ed. Its odd how some promoters can mask a ****** & some promoters promote off of a guy being ******ed. Arum has always been a guy who wants to make his guys cardboard cut out "ideal boxers" who are all trying to be on some less dramatic, less competitive SRL type path to wide stream success. And the guys under TR who don't fit into that situation tend to be also rans fairly quickly in the promotion.

            Yes. I said same when fight was 1st discussed. Manny should absolutely fight Broner. He can win and Broner will be "selling" the fight doing the media rounds and interviews.

              Pac wants 20 guarantee Crawford 7 million. I don't think these 2 are living on the same plane of existence we are. It's a good fight to make but Crawford is not a big name as hard as HBO has hyped him and Pac can't do 500K buys on his own anymore the math just doesn't work.

                    No, that's not the reason why broner is a sell with a big name, Broner would advertise the fights, he would make headlines on how manny is this and that that and would would trash talk manny to the point that he would call manny a closet ****sexual, talking crap about him, disrespecting him. The fight would get so much coverage and so much hype because of Broner's mouth that many would want to watched it and particularly beat broner up.
