    Can you guess how much was offered to Mikey for the Spence fight?

    Do you think it comes close to $15 million?
    He begged for the fight. He got it without his fans screaming,
    "IT'S A LOWBALL OFFER!!!!"

    Mikey Garcia: “There’s no one out there right now that can motivate me and challenge me enough like Errol Spence, and that’s why we’re going after Errol Spence. I want to prove to everybody that I’m the best in this generation, and if I don’t’ get those kinds of fights, then I won’t get recognized,” said the 31-year-old Garcia (39-0, 30 KOs), who is making his 147-pound debut in pursuit of his fifth crown in as many divisions against the 28-year-old Spence (24-0, 21 KOs), a southpaw pursuing his third defense and 12th straight knockout victory.

    “That’s why I went after Errol Spence, and I did everything to secure that fight, and I’m happy that we were able to work that fight out. It was actually a pretty easy negotiation. I do thank his team and himself for accepting the challenge. I am challenging him, and he is the undefeated champion. He could have taken other fights as well, but this fight makes sense for both of us, and that’s why I’m here…

    Four-division champion Mikey Garcia took shots at three-division champions Vasyl Lomachenko and Terence Crawford while praising upcoming opponent and IBF 147-pound champion Errol Spence during a Wednesday interview with Tha Boxing Voice hosted by Nestor Gibbs. Garcia suggested Lomachenko’s avoiding him, Crawford’s faced “C-plus or B-level at best” opposition, and called Spence “the monster in his division” in advance of facing Spence on March 16 at The Dallas Cowboys’ Stadium in Arlington, Texas, on Fox Pay Per View.

    Khan is getting 5 million to fight Crawford so I'll guess Mikey is getting 10million to fight Spence.

      That's crazy the Arum is giving Khan 5 million but when it came to D. Garcia, he offered 3 million to his dad. Obviously Garcia pretty much already had a fight lined up when it was offered but it looks bad on Arum when they came out and said they offered Danny a Crawford fight for 3 million. Pretty sure it was just a PR stunt by TR to accusse Haymon fighters of ducking. Also remember reading Arum would offer Mickey less than 5 million to fight Loma on his terms or else no fight. But yet he offers Khan 5 million?

        Khan is the bigger attraction for Crawford doe.
        Bigger than D Garcia or Porter.
        D Garcia is only averaging $1 mil per fight under the PBC/SHO umbrella.
        $3 mil is huge doe.
        It just means D Garcia want nothing to do with Crawford.
        Didn't even make any counter offer, "I WANT $4 MIL!"
        Nothing, he just want no part of Bud Crawford.

          No he is not. Khan as a big attraction is a myth. I don't know who started this myth and why people keep repeating it. Khan is nowhere Garcia ratings wise & tickets wose

            This sounds about right, but it’s incomplete.

            Mikey Garcia is getting a 6 million Guarantee, and if they break over an expected PPV number both fighters will get double digits just like the Wilder Fury deal. Mikey vs Errol will probably hit 600k PPV

              That's nonsense.
              You're saying his guarantee is bigger than Canelo's first fight with Golovkin,
              which was $5 mil.
              Is Mikey now a Canelo-level star?

                Canelo vs GGG was a no brainer 1 million+ PPV. Wilder’s guarantee was 4 million. Haymon would easily give Mikey 2 million more than that.

                  Really? So explain to me why Garcia is shying away from the Crawford fight.
                  Isn't he supposed to be making counter offers?
                  Can't understand these PBC fighters.
                  They're so afraid of crossing the street,
                  even when they're offered more than what they get from Haymon.

                    No. Explain to me how Khan is a bigger draw than Garcia like you claim. Don't change the subject now.
