Crawford wants 7 million to fight Pacquiao.

[NYC8224]

broner's star power if he even has any to begin with, all went down the drain after the maidana fight so i dont know what you're talking about, acting like AB is a draw or something.

broner talking about the fight and advertising about it wouldnt do much more than the actual promotional company doing the same thing. you act like broner has a big following or something.

if pac vs broner were to happen, im sure TR would promote the hell out of it too, so by saying broner will advertiswe it, etc means nothing! since TR will be doing it too.

Broner is an idiot but i think he could have recovered after Maidana but he also lose to Porter who is good but also has losses. The way he lost to Porter was embarassing. Maidana dominated him but Broner letting the same thing happen against Porter proved he isnt that good

[-Hyperion-]

Mr 50k wants 7 million? Worse than mister 80k(half of 160k) wanting more than 5 million for the rematch....wtf.

Go back and read. I never alluded to this being his last fight, I said he should be fighting the elite. Get it? Got it? Good. Fighting Vargas and Horn when there are higher level fighters he should be targeting is not a good look. Thats why the fight after his next needs to be against the winner of Garcia/Thurman or just ***ing retire. Makes no sense to come back unless his goal is to go out on top and fighting the likes of Horn is a fking joke.

you said "the final moment of his career".. implying that its his last fight.

and he's done fought enough elite already thruout his career. like i said at this point, you either support him because you're a fan or you dont. there's nothing more you can say or do about it.

he's accomplished it all already, his career is set in stone. im pretty sure he's not trying to out do it anymore than what he's already done.

you're calling for pac to fight thurman/garcia when you know damm well this will never happen since they're from different promotional company. its already hard enough to make those guys fight eachother and their from the same promotional company and yet you're trying to call for a pac vs thurman/gracia fight?

Once again, why would Pac fight top guys?

[BrometheusBob.]

So this fight has to generate $27million in revenue just to pay each fighters guarantee?? Not to mention they will both want PPV cuts, undercards need to be paid for, promotion, advertising etc...

This is why boxing is in the ****ter.

Any NSB accountants want to estimate how many buys this show would need to produce to cover all that?

[richardt]

Why would he fight them at his age? Because the fans want him to? The fans are mostly idiots and he has nothing to prove, why fight top guys when he can fight bums for nice money?

To go out on top. Fighting bums for any money is ridiculous because it can backfire on him. Fight the best for the biggest purse is the right thing to do. Who is to say he wont fight the winner of Garcia/Thurman??? Thats what I'm waiting to see. If he does not, then his come back and the final chapter of his career is nothing but an anticlimax.

[SplitSecond]

Pacquiao was fighting Morales and Barrera II for 2 mil, I think his first 3 mil was vs Marquez. God only knows how much he made for the first Barrera fight coming in as an unknown(although already with a filipino following). This sport is badly skewed, Haymon has done well to **** everything outside of his reach.

Crawford should revel at the oppurtunity. This is a gateway fight. Take a mil or 2, you're nobody and boring.

Dont assume I'm implying. The final moment is the curtain call, his last few fights before calling it a career. Different promotional companies??? Thats a mythical impasse because Arum has worked with other promotional companies to make fights. If the winner of Thurman/Garcia's team was approached by a superstar like Pac, they would get the fight done.

[WesternChamp]

Wrong. He retired. These were his words regarding his congressional position: "If ever I decide to fight again, rest assured, it will happen when congress is on recess so there’s no need for me to go on leave." Next.

thats what he said, but he didnt actually retired.

if anything, it was planned all along to announce that he's retiring.

it was a way to boost up sales for the pac vs bradley 3 fight.

there was very little interest in that fight. so he has to say its his last fight in order to try and get more interest.


he took 7 months off lol.
