    Mikey can fight on espn

    I know Mickey said if they want the fight come on showtime but since hes a free agent if he wants Crawford or Loma he should be able to fight on espn.

    According to fat dan.

    Has Mikey confirmed that?

    I don't see Mikey on ESPN anytime soon. Arum is a petty guy + Mikey is a guy who could f#ck up a TR guys day potentially + Mikey isn't gonna wanna sign an option deal & Arum isn't likely to let Mikey fight anyone meaningful without options.

      ESPN isn't going to split $2m between Garcia and Crawford; Showtime has already shown that they have no qualms with doing so.

      Men like, women like, numbers don't lie; Crawford-Indongo is in three weeks, and Rafael will likely hunt down the purse information (unless someone tells him not to look, lol).

      We'll see what those numbers look like

        Crawford already makes 1.4 mil a fight. Not sure what Indongo is getting paid but remember he is a foreign fighter so a lot of his money won't be on whatever the state athletic commission sheet says. Just like Pacquiao, Diego Chavez, Canelo, Marquez, Matthysse etc get paid. Its a way to lower their tax bill

          Julius Indongo is from Namibia, with Sky Sports quites likely not picking the fight for their channel; there's no real reason for Indongo to hide his money from the commission, especially in a state like Nebraska.

          Will see when the disclosed purses come out; don't hide

              Are you saying that Top Rank facilitates tax evasion?

                actually there is a reason. It's called Us taxes. Why do I think diego Chaves had 20k and 35k purses for the bradley and rios fight? The promoters will pay him the rest weeks after the fight. Just like when Maidanas fight purses was lower on the Nevada commish report than what was on his bout agreement. U really need to educate yourself.

                This happens all the time with foreign fighters. Look at Katie Taylor 4K purse for Saturday's fight.

                  Doesn't help too rank or any promoter. The fighters do that and it's perfectly legal. U seem to have not read my post correctly.
