Bob Arum negotiating Crawford-Spence

[boliodogs]

That 10% to the winner crap will never work especially for big fights. Leaves too much incentive for someone to want a robbery. Spence is gonna get a bigger split it Crawford will enjoy fighting bums on espn

It will never work. It never does. I can't ever remember even one big fight where the winner got extra money. It's just Arum trying to show how hard he is trying to make this fight when Spence should probably get a bit more money win lose or draw.

*Crawford vs Khan

Arum has officially smartened up and decided that Crawford will no longer be fighting on PPV against anyone but Spence. Enough is enough.

Unless you are doing at least 250k buys, it is not worth putting your fighter on PPV....Unless their guarantees are fairly low.

That's cuz his scale skinned ass doesn't promote Bud like he should. He too busy promoting the hell out of l0m0 & l0m0 can't even do Buds numbers with all the promo bob does for him.

Never going to happen. Or it will happen 5-6 yeas too late like Fraud/Pac.

Hymen is too greedy and too much of a snake and Spence and Crawford are too scared to risk that "0".

bob was the one who made T.B.E./#48 NOT happen in 2009 when T.B.E. made the offer then T.B.E. MADE it happen after he ran up on Manny at the basketball game.

Haymon lets his fighter get their piece of the pie as they SHOULD & Errol or Bud NOT scared to risk that 0.

imagine overall purse is 20 mil and you lose via robbery.. 2 mil down the drain

Crawford-Benavidez was free tho.

Not many people willing to buy Bud's PPV fights. Crawford-Khan which was a PPV, flopped big time! With only 150K buys...

I'm gunna say it again, Crawford is not PPV worthy. Sorry.

Not arguing. But neither is Spence

[djtmal]

Glad they are negotiating but I don't see how this would work given Spence has a much higher PPV sales rate. The sales from Spence/Porter will tell us how big Spence is right now.

This is that fanboy talk we don't need.

Who cares who has a higher ppv sales rate or how big Spence is.
Just make the fight while both these guys are at their peak.

We don't need another ten years of excuses from cats like you.

Gayweather was scared of 2009-2011 Pacquiao.

This is relative to the 45/45/10 split discussed in the initial post. If you have a higher sales rate, you are not going to go for this type of deal. If you have the lower rate, then of course you would. It's discussing the economic realities of the fight. Has nothing to do with fanboy talk, whatever dumb sh-t that is.

Now I gave you the attention you desperately wanted. Get off my nutsack! You're a joke of a poster whose opinion no one really cares about.
