Comments Thread For: Arum: Crawford, Broner Are Bigger Fights Than Khan For Pacquiao

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum is not revealing the options for Manny Pacquiao's next fight. Pacquiao (59-6-2, 38 KOs) has been out of the ring since capturing the WBO welterweight title from Jessie Vargas last November at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas.

But you won't make the Crawford fight, Bob.

Instead you wanted to have Pac fight Jeff Horn.

Wonder why arum is so against khan

[Corelone]

Broner better hurry up and collect. Granados found a way to compete even after all of Broner's BS. AB looked slow and lazy (for not making weight). It looks like the other side of the hill to me.

From a business perspective, the Broner option makes the most sense for Pacquiao

It sells as good or better than just about any option out there, and it's also the "easiest"

I'm not saying Broner would be easy, because as lackluster as he looked a few weeks ago, I still believe that Broner remains a dangerous out for anybody

That said, barring a homerun counter, Pacquiao almost assuredly eases by Broner on the cards

This right here. Arum said it himself. Crawford wasn't even an option. He didn't even talk to Crawford and his people. And that he wasn't an option to most likely next year. (There were reports that team Pac said they are willing to fight Crawford if Top Rank paid them their guarantee)

Arum was planning for a 4 or 5 fight world tour for Manny with fights in Australia, Russia and the UK. 1st stop. Australia- against Jeff Horn.

People want to blame Arum for this mishap but Team Manny is 100% to blame for this crap. Its crazy how Team Manny negotiated a ghost deal without seeing a dime! Konzce is the one ripping Manny off! The funny thing about the situation is Khan & Manny announced on social media the fight was a done deal! Who in the *** was Team Manny talking to? I bet Khan feels like an azz after talking **** to Hearns.

THURMAN IS THE BIGGEST FIGHT FOR MANNY BUT THEY NEVER MENTION HIM.....

[turnedup]

No to Broner...why Broner for the sound bites? Broner is going to end up throwing about 30 to 40 shots a round and in the shell the rest of the round. Too much speed and Broner's stance is too wide and perfect for Pacquaio to angle hook him. Too much speed for Broner, Manny would have a field day tagging his @zz.

[UpAndComing]

Arum is a snake but I hope either of the two names get to fight Manny next. Better than a Khan or Horn fight, to be honest.
