    2 million for Horn?
    ...guaranteed to lose money.

    Thurman, Spence, Garcia don't make that most of the time... horn should only get 1 million imo

      He was gonna drop the belt and fight Mudine in Australia. Arum had to pay him more money.

        Yes!!!! Arum lost big time money on Bud-Postol. Bob said he needed 75k to break even, it got 50k. And yes, Horn can demand two million, because what choice does Arum and Bud have? If they say no and it goes to purse bid, it doesn't matter who wins, Horn gets at least 70%. He is the champ, Bud is the challenger.

        Arum is screwed. He kept putting on the most horrible mismatches and finally hbo said enough, and said they weren't paying for that crap anymore. Espn sure can't afford to give Horn a couple million plus at least another million or two to Bud. And 50k ppvs, sure ain't going to pay for everything.

        He was hoping Manny would work for a percentage, which would have been spare change for Pac. Now with no Pac, there is no way to pay everyone.

          I smell something fishy, it seems that the reason top rank didn't sell tickets is because Manny didn't want to fight on the undercard and without Manny Arum is afraid that the fight would not be a hit by Vegas standards.

              Manny got bullied by the larger Hornet. Crawford won't be weight bullying this guy around the ring. They might have fought better competition, but it's telling when three guys blatantly avoid this man.
              he an old politician. Crawford has hurt hand. May be moved back month article said. I mean i got nothing against horn. Ill watch guy. But nobody afraid of him and crawford will beat his azz a month later. Wont be long.

                TBC is not ranked in the IBF and Spence has a mandatory. So if there is no unification as TBC doesn't have a belt then they can't fight. Now Horn and Spence can fight.

                  Maybe now they can have Pacquiao/Matthysse main event while Crawford/Horn perform first? All respect to Horn and Crawford but Manny still commands a crowd so why wouldn't they give him the main event spot? Sounds crazy but I hope this ends up on free TV on ESPN.

                    IF nobody's afraid of Jeff "The Hornet" Horn, why won't anyone get in the ring and face him? He's the F'n champion FFS
