    Co-promotions are really hard to do, especially without that gate money!

      Atleast Bud wants to fight Spence, I don't see why but from all Spence has said he isn't interested in fighting Bud, he's done nothing but put up road blocks.
      From what Spence said? Lol, you're a total idiot aren't you?

      Custer: "So Spence lemmie ask you this. If you had to choose your next three fights in order, who would it be?"

      Spence: "If I had to choose my next three fights it would be Danny Garcia, Manny Pacquiao, and Terence Crawford in that order. I don't want to leave the division without fighting Crawford. I want to become undisputed and then move up."

      Guess what? Custer asked Crawford the exact same question later and Crawford didn't name anyone and ran around in circles.

        This the most illlgical thing I ever heard in my life.

        The longer Manny delays fighting either one of them the less likely that fight happens.

        The making of that fight largely relies on the revenue that fight can generate because of the splitting of the proceeds between their respective networks.

        Therefore, Crawford or Spence has to beat Mannh first in order to make the fight more marketable and generate enough revenue for both Showtime and ESPN to bite.

        Neither of those networks will concede to the other and they won't make a joint promotion if they stand to make a loss.

        I think you know this though but are just trying to deflect to justify Manny's ducking.
        Manny is about that cash! He's not ducking anyone. Mikey is a bigger draw than Spence and Crawford, and very winnable! McGregor could be worth more than all the Boxers in the WW division! I think when fans start going back to stadiums, we'll hear from Pacquiao!

          Yea man. Ofcourse. Garcia couldn’t have just “followed up”. That would have been ludicrous.

            First off, there is absolutely no proof that Mikey is a bigger draw than Spence. This is completely unsubtantiated.

            How Manny ppvs has Mikey been in? The only time Mikey had a ppv was when he was fighting Spence, but Spence is now going into his third ppv against Danny.

            Spence sells, Mikey doesn't.

            Secondly, why the **** are you supporting someone holding the division hostage? You one of those fake fans that boxing is full of?

            Coz why else would you support this rubbish?

            Manny must man up or drop the belt. If he doesn't want the smoke, then drop the belt and you can fight the Mikey's of the world and see who cares.

            Fact is Manny is using that belt for clout because nobody cares about his fights if he doesn't have that belt.

            If you were a fan of the sport you wouldn't support this rubbish.

            At least when Mayweather fought Mcgregor he had dropped the belts long ago and wasn't holding nothing hostage.

            Strange how rabidly yawl criticised him but are now supporting Pac fighting those kind of dudes while holding the division hostage.

            Smh! Human hypocrisy has no limits.

              Spence - Terrence Crawford needs a belt, without a belt he is irrelevant so why would I fight him? Get a belt and I will fight him.

              Crawford - Hey Spence I got myself a belt, let's fight.

              Spence - you on the wrong side of the street, I'm not fighting you until you cross the street, leave Top Rank and sign with the PBC.

              Spence - I don't need to fight Crawford there are plenty of in house fights. Crawford is at the back of the list.

              He did say that. ROAD BLOCK AFTER ROAD BLOCK. Crawford stikk at the back of his list.

                they told tr to send everything to al. they didnt. to you it makes sense to not blame tr for pulling that stunt but to point the finger at garcia for not chasing down an imaginary offer. i commend tr and being able to fool the minions.

                  The biggest lie told on boxing scene and spread around like the plague.

                  Spence NEVER said Crawford needed a belt. NEVER

                  I dare you to find the article that says that, you won't.

                  That was Keith Thurman.

                  Smh! Why the hell is Spence taking the fall for what Keith Thurman did of all people is beyond me

                    From what Ive heard and what Arum has said. They ignored it completely, until the media got wind of the offer and subsequently started asking questions. They never even got back to Arum to say something like “forward to Al”.

                    It was a duck plain and simple. You get a number($). If you are interested in that number you follow up. Simple.

                      from what you heard? lol.

                      look they called angel garcia and pretended they did that (instead of calling the mgr) because they just wanted to make sure danny knew about the offer.

                      they were then instructed to call the manager. they never did, never even tried to lie and say they did so you took it a step further and acted as if they did.

                      thats the end of it. how you see it is you see things and i dont blame you. not everyone can think critically.
