Comments Thread For: Roach: Pacquiao Was Ready, Crawford Wanted Too Much Money

[Patsfan bri]

Maybe if pac didn`t want 20 million crawford could get a fair pay day.

It won't be long before Crawford does what Oscar, Floyd, Cotto, and Mikey Garcia have all done before him! Can't trust Arum! "The Devil is a liar!"

[EL_GRINGO]

He set a price impossible to meet. That tells you one thing, Pacquiao didn't want that fight.

Arum never said no to 20m,crawford asking 7 is too much,he ain't worth that,he has to take what he can get against pacquiao

[MisanthropicNY]

Crawford wants to continue to fight easy opposition, collect small check and pretend like he's some lb for lb King or something. Loma was fighting top notch competition while Crawford is fighting all no-names.

Crawford is elite level too.....don't kid yourself.

Jesse Vargas isn't exactly the face of boxing nor was Tim Bradley.

Crawford has a HUGE fanbase in his home state that would SURELY fork over to see Terrence vs Manny on PPV.

This fight is worthy of hyping.

Terrence deserves what he is asking for...as was Broner.

Against any other fighter yes,against Pacman no,if there ain't 27m in the pot to divide and pacquiao wants 20m,crawford has to take what's being offered to him,does he want the fight or not is the question,and if Manny or Floyd come along you should always take the fight

[Mr. Luthor]

True but potential opponents are also going to come with their demands too. I doubt Pac is getting $20 million for a Jeff Horn.

One has to wonder why Pacquiao is demanding $20 million guaranteed to fight Crawford but not for anyone else? Hmmmmm???

[Mr. Luthor]

Yeah cause Pac is the size of Kell Brook and he gets a huge advantage fighting guys like Bradley, Algieri, etc... Oh wait, he's actually smaller than all of them anyway so there goes that theory.

That's laughable considering that Manny Pacquiao has exactly ONE fight at Jr Welterweight (140 lbs) in his 66 fight career but 13 Welterweight fights and hasn't fought below Welterweight since 2009. When 14 of your last 15 fights have been at Welterweight or above, you can't keep claiming to be a Jr Welterweight and/or too small for the division.

people blaming manny, how much did floyd get for fighting bumdre berto?

[Madison Boxing]

a duck is a duck, i dont care what mannys done in his career, hes ducking crawford. Thing is i dont know why he is either, not as if crawford is some feared power puncher whos going to hurt him. if crawford outboxed manny at this stage it wouldnt really hurt his cv. And hes still a top fighter so he couldnt be ruled out against crawford at all, and that would be a great name to get on his cv if he managed to beat a fighter like that at his stage of his career.
