Fake news. No way Pac fight's him after Crawford priced himself out and asked for a 9.5 million guarantee.
Pacquiao-Crawford in negotiations?

Why is Arum a snake...? He's in the boxing business and that's to make fights happen. He pays for everything, often down to the plastic spoon you stir your coffee with, medicals and in advance, or a large deposit, also pays the whole card. So why is he a snake for making a fight which he hopes should bring in enough money to pay the fighters their exorbitant purses as well as everything else. One little ommission and he loses money. HE loses, not the fighterss or others. And a losing busines doesn't stay open for long. Promoters invest millions in promising fighters for years before they being to pay off..and many never do.
Why do I need to tell you sll this. I don't because you already know as well as I do. You just took he mean opportunity to degrade Arum, an 89 year old man you don't even know, although if he brought this fight about, you'd love it. But he's still a"snake".Comment

Don’t really think it’ll happen as Crawford will not generate any viewers or buyers.
Thurman and PAC did 500K, Crawford does less than that.
Not worth it for PAC, no money.
Should get a big paycheck for his last fight.Comment

Because he lies to his fighters and makes matches when he wants not when the fighter wants, if he thinks his fighter gets beat in a high profile match he will avoid it on one side of his face and tell his fighter they avoiding it on the other side of his face.Why is Arum a snake...?

I'm almost certain that the money for fighting Manny and being able to have that name in his resume is enough for Bud to take the fight. Title be damned.Comment

Crawford will do better numbers than Thurman, people will turnout for a good match between the top guys.Comment

How do you know this. I'm in boxing too, far longer than you, and don't know this. The boxer has the choice to fight which ever opponent is most available. He can turn it down, and you know that almost as many fights fall through as are actually fought, because one of the fighters refused the purse, or conditions, or venue, or country, or wanted his whole family to be comped first class all the way, and fifty other reasons. The Promoter can only arrange the match after the boxer and his manager decide. He tells them who is available. He works for them not the other way 'round....which seems to be the way you have it.
And anyway, to call an inoffensive old man you don't even know, who has never done anything to you, a "snake' is cheap and low. ...as low as a snake in fact.Comment

I dont see it we will have to wait and see, Thurman was really a nobody out for years and one average fight back, I think the real boxing fans would support Manny TC , Manny Spence or TC Spence.
I really hope one of the above gets made boxing needs it now.Comment

How do I know , Ive always felt it and Koncz revealed they were not aware of the offers made by Oscar and Schaefer when they met Floyd in the motel and made the fight, dont you think its strange Arum supposedly couldnt make the fight and Floyd does when he can talk direct with Pac and his manager with no Arum in the room.How do you know this.
