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

[HewJohnson]

Well atleast he mentioned the fight specifically and gave his demands.

Now let's see this goes.

My guess this fight never happens? Bob is notorious for being cheap

PAC is looking to retire.
He’s in search of a high paying fight. Whether it’s Ryan, Crawford, Mcgregor, etc.

He’s looking to cash out and retire man.
Which he should, he’s already accomplished extraordinary feats in boxing.

Problem is none of the current guys can get him that type of pay...was supposed to be Mcgregor, but that went south.

Ryan could probably get him some gold chunk of money but, i don’t think Ryan’s team really wants to do that at the expense of Ryan.

Spence and Crawford, neither are big draws...they’ll generate about the same amount of PPV buys as Thurman, maybe 100K more. Not much incentive there.

Also keep in mind during pandemic, stadiums won’t be fully packed...really banking on the PPV buys.

In that case, his only option is too wait around until someone has some drawing power while he is approaching mid-40s or maybe try and lure Floyd out again?

Well that’s why he’s asking for $40M dude. Might as we ask for high price right ?

He’s the one that’s in demand, so he can ask the price.

What if Arum and Crawford actually bite? Crawford keeps ducking Spence but yapping about PAC, well put your money where your mouth is.

Negotiations are always in place. Come down $10M and now he gets 30M.

Crawford at this point should take peanuts for the chance at looking impressive against a high profile world known fighter like Pac, its just where he is at now and the best thing he can do to increase his profile.

Pac ducked Crawford for last 7 yrs when they were both signed to Top Rank. Pac is full of sh÷t and has priced himself from Crawford. Pac will probably ask for 80mil for Spence just to avoid that fight also. Smh.

And he believed Bod. Haha

[Bestlefty]

Not when your fans are saying he's a nobody. Not when you are not asking the same money for his contemporary equals such as Spence and Thurman.

Manny moved the offer from 25 mil the first time to now 40 mil. He just doesn't want to fight Crawford.

If I am Pac, I would increase it everytime after they reject it, to make them suffer and make them regret for not taking it the 1st time. Suffer Bob/Bud. Haha

[Fists_of_Fury]

Crawford asking 60/40 for Spence was fine by the same clowns saying this is Pacquiao pricing himself out. If Crawford and Arum don't accept, this is a duck. Those bogus offers to guys like Danny Garcia were called ducks so this can go the same route. Either accept the offer or it's a duck.

If they cant pay it because projections are telling them they will lose money , and Manny is not going to budge then he is indeed pricing himself out, its not hard to see, he can ask for whatever he wants there is a real figure that is viable, if Manny doesnt want to go there he doesnt want the fight.

This is not a new business they know exactly what they can do and cant do.

[pasawayako]

Comeon arum and bud don't duck pac again. If bud don't have any intention of fighting he should just say it so that he don't waste anyone's time.
