Copp: Bud vs Pac in advanced stages. Went dead when Bud demanded 9.5 mil guarantee

[Monzon99]

Anybody wonder if Thurman was so desperate for the Pac payday that he played soft on the franchise? It was a haymon in house fight and haymon's long term interests were for Pac to win because Pac is his only bonafide franchise money maker.

So Ratings mean more than P4p and World Champion? WOW!

When asking for $ yeah

[Fists_of_Fury]

These b sides across boxing are such clowns and divas. Floyd was giving these equivalent guys Flat fees for a few million while selling a million plus. Who gassed them up? PPV is not selling, they are not stars, but they’re demanding purses that strong a sides would get in the past in 500k level PPV fights.

Great post! These bums are insane. Asking for way more than they are worth.

[sicko]

I've been noticing this guy is always defending greed.
Doesn't even care where the money will come from.
Same guy who admitted he doesn't buy PPVs.
No wonder not many meaningful fights are getting made
because of fans like this.

When it comes to fighters...you damn right they should always try to get the most money possible because God Forbid something like what happened to Maxim Dadashev and Patrick Day you "FANS" are not going to take care of those guys family and your Well Wishes and Sympathy is not going to help them

So YES fighters should be GREEDY and put themselves FIRST! After they're being well compensated each fight then yeah you can fully put the pressure on them to fight the best what people do with Canelo

But yeah if we're telling guys this or that fight is a big fight of course they're going to want Big Money For it

"At The End of The Day"....




And "At The End Of The Day"...

At the end of the day, you’re cherry-picking.

Notice how Amir Khan is pulling Crawford’s head down as that low blow lands.

Also, at the end of the day Crawford came back to stop Mean Machine.

[mrwake]

thurman has been a much better draw than thurman so crawford asking for more than thurman is extremely suspect

how can Thurman be a much better draw than Thurman??? Sort your s*** out daggum lmao! There are many men at welter/super welter that are a better draw than Thurman but surely not Thurman himself!

[Roadblock]

You're excluding that Crawford's manager is fresh off yelling and screaming about Keef allegedly asking for $10 million, yet here he is allegedly asking for damn near that same.

Why is one ask ok and the other not?

Especially since Crawford is NOWHERE near Manny Pacquiao's level as a BUSINESS draw?

Near is a not the same and my point stands TC is every bit Thurman and was asking for 30% which not unreasonable considering he is p4p 1 and a unbeaten multi WC.

Bro...that's NOT how the BUSINESS of boxing works.

You get paid based on asses in seats. Which Crawford struggles with.

When you step up to an A-Side - and Manny IS the A-Side - the calculation is simple.

Floyd tried to explain this to people.




By this measure, the MOST Crawford can possibly for going against Manny is $7 million - and that's if Manny is feeling just as generous as Floyd would. Which he probably wouldn't.

You're the one talking about outcomes.

OUTCOME... Crawford resorted to a low blow because he was frustrated he couldn't spark the chin like Danny Swift did AND he didn't like being clinched. That's fine - but it's illegal.

Also, at the end of the day Crawford came back to stop Mean Machine.

After...

Man you cant use that against Bud when Manny has fought a long line of B graders, Bud is way above them guys, I guarantee you Manny TC will draw better than Vargas Algieri Rios Broner.

I just think if you weigh up everything TC is worth 30% of what Manny is to get.

Drawing power is about the match up, its never about one guy thats why Mannys biggest drawing fights right now are Spence if he beats Danny and TC if he beats Brook.
