Comments Thread For: Pacquiao: I Told Crawford's Promoter - I Want $40 Million For The Fight

[Liondw]

Pacquiao's a great fighter, a legend, love him, but that's a hefty asking fee against a guy in Crawford who's not a big box office attraction.

In his prime, I think Manny beats him . Today, at their current age and form, I'd have to say Crawford beats Pacquiao, and also beats Spence.

Manny is no longer worth of what he is asking for specially in this crisis time. Now there is no more McGregor, he will be force to accept lower dolllar fight. Worst scenerario he will get beat and retired by a low tier fighter. Crawford beat the **** out of him actually

[abracada]

Pac says he fights anyone as long as you give him at least ...$40 Million?

Haha true

It’s like me saying that I will fight any great white shark in the world in the depths of the ocean, all I ask for is $500billion.

always said pacman was a coward...well theres the proof deluded druggie hes a nobody mayweathers leftovers just wants to feed his filipino countrymen should retire and promoters wisen up dont pay the pensioner his retirement fund tell him hes only worth a million now after a mayweather put a clinic on him and taught him how to box........

LOL you always said Pacquiao was a coward? Wow. Any reason why you would say that?

[Roadblock]

Pandemic aside, $40m doesn’t even seem like a stretch for someone of Pacquiao’s status. It’s probably no less than he would have made in a McGregor fight, which would be a guaranteed win, and it’s not even close to his biggest purse.

Besides, Canelo was getting over $30m per fight with DAZN and AJ made significantly more than $40m in his rematch against Ruiz. Pacquiao is probably bigger than both in terms of drawing power, certainly far more accomplished, and would be facing the #1 or 2 p4p fighter in the world as a 43 year old underdog.

Save the pricing out talk for the boxers out there asking for multiples of their biggest purse who have no more then 1/2 highlight wins to their name.

Manny got 10 mill for Thurman and got 500k buy.

He wanted 20 mill for TC and Arum told him no deal.

Now he wants 40 mill tell me who and how they going to sell this fight for that sort of money , whats the bet he fights somebody for way less than 40 mill and it wont be Spence or TC .

Haters gonna hate. If Bob cant get that money and bring that fight, well that is his problem. Pac has options. They all want Pacs name.

They aint 40 mill options , so if Arum says he cannot do that without losing loads of money so Manny then fights a B grader for 10 mill what do you make of that ?

[thack]

Time to retire little man from wanting to fight a 0-1 fighter to $40m to fight, seems your time is up. Pac's been great for boxing but like Floyd before him he's about to spoil it.

[Lance98]

Pac didn't want this fight. He knows bob can't put up the money so that he can say crawford's side didn't want the fight. What a fraud...just retire already.

[Divine Hammer]

pac deserves $40 million or more. pac is the boss now not arum. pay the living legend ATG what he deserves.
