Comments Thread For: Team Pacquiao Stand Firm on $20 Million For Crawford Fight

[rrayvez]

Pac Made a guarantee of 4 mil vs vargas and only sold 300k ppvs. He wants a 20 mil guarantee to fight a guy in Crawford whose only ppv fight sold around 50k. This is a good fight but pac asking for 20 mil for a fight that won't do anywhere near a mil in buys is his way of declining the fight. Sorry to the pac nut huggers as I know it's hard to admit that their hero is avoiding a fight but it is what it is.

$20 million isn't very realistic in the current climate. Brook in England would generate good money but even if it was wembley stadium and sky box office that amount would be difficult. A crawford fight wouldnt generate half that amount and canelo is far too big. Is manny broke or what?

The news says: His team wants $20m.

I'd bet everything I own that Manny probably has never even commented on the Crawford fight and what he'd want to be paid. This is the grese ball Koncz talking for Manny and more importantly, himself.

Gotta love Arum taking shots at Koncz too, lol....

Does that guy even manage 1 other fighter or did he make his living vulturing off Pac?

koncz the pill head lol arum threw him under the bus

After Mayweather made about $30 mil to fight Berto and CBS/Showtime lost millions of dollars. The market dried up. You have to strike when you have the chance to make money.

That's how you know Mayweather is clearly on steroids/PEDs. Who would turn down hundreds of millions of dollars unless they can have USADA and NSAC in a fight??? LOL. The guy literally would not have fought Pac for $300 mil if it wasn't USADA and NSAC.

The guy won't even fight Conor McGregor without NSAC. "I don't fight in Cali." A fight that he'd be like 50-1 to win, he will not take unless it's in Nevada and under NSAC. Come on.

Pacquiao is the only top-notch fighter in the history of boxing to actually use VADA testing - come up clean at the top of his game - when he beat Rios and Bradley.

Good. I don't like this fight for him at all.

[Deletrious]

So? He was guaranteed 20 regularly his whole career, up to and including Bradley 3, which was a great fight even if PPV were down. Pacquiao agreed to do his next fight for less, but he was fighting someone who clearly was not A class, Vargas. Why shouldn't he expect 20 again for fighting Crawford, who is A class and extremely dangerous?

I think - and I say this with about 25% certainty - Koncz has a hand in Manny's promotional company
