Of course they need a pay cut, just like the majority of the country.

    Listen, I know boxing is a tough sport, but EVERYONE is affected by the pandemic in some way. Whether they got furloughed or took pay cuts, the entire world was affected. No time to get greedy now just because now you can't afford to put premium in your Bugatti Veyron. Can't say I feel sorry for them.

    Some people should learn to live comfortable even if they earn millions or billions. When you live with the fact that if you lose even a quarter of what you make, it's a struggle, that's not the smart way to be living.
    this is REAL TALK FACTS spoken right here fam!

      So basically if no one is buying PPV’s then Pacquiao is out of luck while no attendance is there as well? Where will PAC’s guarantee come from? What will PAC’s manager think about PPV sales and the MINIMUM because of the new circumstances?

          What genuine boxing fan would want a platform to die that supplies them some of the better boxing around for ~13 dollars a month or whatever they charge?

          Either you just want to spite the promotor or you simply stream everything anyway so it doesn't effect you.

          Yes they did.

          The entire squad at Barcelona, Juventus and most other top clubs took pay cuts. Ronaldo gave up $4.5 million minimum in salary and more beyond that.

          Messi and Barcelona players gave up 70% of their salary for 4 months which was significantly more because the club is/was in such a financial mess.

          The same can be said for the top players at Man United, Real Madrid, Liverpool etc.

            Send me articles, links. $4.5 million from Ronaldo is like him making a shampoo commercial.

              Not sure why you really had to bring up Pac other than I'm a fan. Either way, yes, everything I said applies to him as well.

                  Barcelona players will take a 70% pay cut during the coronavirus pandemic and will contribute to ensure non-sporting staff receive full wages.


                  Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi released a statement on Monday, saying the club's players will take 70 per cent wage cuts and make other contributions to ensure the team's other employees will still be paid during Spain's state of emergency amid the coronavirus pandemic.


                  Cristiano Ronaldo agreed to a wage cut with Juventus to help the club control costs while play is suspended during the coronavirus pandemic. Even with an estimated 30% cut, he is still on track to become the first $1 billion footballer this season.

                  Ronaldo actually gave up 20 million. Messi gave up more. Literally every top club did the same.

                    Lol. 4 months March to June. The Wage cut is based on the revenue from those 4 months. That’s not a loss at all when there weren’t any games from the jump! Lol

                      Wow Widler is a genius for not signing with these bums.
                      it looked like he was ducking but in reality he knew the pandemic would hit and change everything, i mean look how much wilder has made since the pandemic! genius!
