Boxing landscape has changed but Bob at the time had to go big to keep Crawford or else he could have very easily left to the PBC. 3 million at that time was A LOT but now? Considering what GGG is making and what Wilder got offered? It's pretty much the going rate for guys of Lomachenko's, Crawford's, Mikey's etc caliber.
If Crawford is about to make 10 million and Khan is about to make six million, then this PPV really better do around 325-350k buys. The gate for this fight isn't going to be anything special. May get around 1.5-2M but not much more, if any. UK buys won't do better than 30-40k.
At least the next few fights for Crawford will be off PPV unless he gets one of the PBC WWs. But he should be getting very good pay days on ESPN+ regardless. 8 figures type pay days? Highly unlikely, but hey if Fury is getting that much, maybe Crawford next negotiations needs to ask for that as well lol.
