Manny Pacquiao offered $10 million to fight Terence Crawford

[Finestream]

I doubt that it is Manny who's making tweets, probably another person on his team, maybe Gibbons is the one teasing us boxing fans that this fight will happen. But still the final say is with Manny here. If Manny insists on fighting Crawford, then definitely this fight could materialised. And I think the ball right now is with Bob Arum and most probably if there is negotiations, that $40M is out of the table, that's why the fight will not push thorough.

Since it came from the official tweeter account of Manny then it should be coming from Manny whoever made that tweet, unless he will say that his account has been hack or compromise. Manny wants this fight but his demand might be too high for Arum, I'm sure no complain on Crawford but he can't make a decision without the approval of his promoter.

Actually it's not only Crawford, he also call out Spence Jr. and IMO, he is really interested in fighting any of this boxer this year.

Crawford replied :


So this could be the basis why Manny wants to fight him in his announcement but we have not heard reply from Crawford when Manny made it official.

We are once again hearing rumors that this fight will happen. According to The Athletic, they are trying to make this fight for June 5th in Abu Dhabi. Top Rank has already reserved that date with their pay-per-view distributor so they are probably really serious about making this fight. June 5th is also the potential date for Lopez vs. Kambosos but I don't think they are too worried about it because they know fans would rather buy the Pacquiao vs. Crawford fight.

I will give it a 50% chance that it will happen. Once we see Manny Pacquiao on the news that he goes back in hard practice, we already know it's now final.

Manny Pacquiao still got his magic, hearing him back in the ring the  fans will surely support him.

Glad to know that there's still talks that ongoing between this two camps, even the pandemic still there and really hitting most part
of the world, with this, some sort of entertainment might give some diversions with how people see their everyday life.

I though all this while that talks of a fight between Manny Pacquiao and Terence Crawford is already dead. 

We all know that Bob Arum won't pay what Manny have asked but i think they got some billionaires onboard to sponsor this fight.

Might be the last one for the Pacman if this pushes through as election time in the Philippines is fast approaching and he will be very busy that time campaigning for the top position of the land hehe.

Yes, probably 50% chance and perhaps Pacquiao is also looking for other fighters if the fight with Crawford didn't go. Manny is a senator and for sure he is one of the most hardworking Philippine senator, but once he committed himself to fight again, for sure he will give his 110% best as we all know that he wants to fight his young guys around and bet their ass.

he has good record, but if I were Terrence I should not force him to fight Pacman, all the fighters he had face before, change the way they fight after Pacman, all the explosiveness disappear, I don't know what kind of hands does manny have, but other opponents he had face all of them says, it's fast and hard and it really hurts, he may win but he will never be the same again after that, challenge other fighter but if he still wants manny he should be ready to retire early in his career.

Every Welterweight want a piece of Manny Pacquiao and it's a no-brainer that Terrence Crawford would take this one without hesitation.

He knows that he can beat Pacman on this stage of his career and needless to say, the biggest purse so far.

If only both fighters are in their prime, no doubt that Pacman would demolish Terrence but every good thing has an end and this might be changing of the guard as Terrence will now be the top dog on this division.

As a fan of Manny, i don't want this fight as this could do more harm than good to his health but knowing Manny that he always love challenges and i do hope that he won't be harm on this one.

We don't know his performance as a senator but boxing has always been his passion so we like to see him fighting again. Manny vs Crawford is going to be a big fight, Manny will be the underdog and this is what makes the fight more interesting.

Not final yet, we are just speculating but updating it is necessary, so thanks for those who continue updating this thread.

[Sanitough]

I think we have the best update so far.  

https://www.badlefthook.com/2021/3/30/22358960/manny-pacquiao-next-fight-terence-crawford-negotiations-june-5-abu-dhabi-boxing-news-2021

It’s not a unification match anymore, but Terence Crawford vs. Manny Pacquiao remains in play. The Athletic reports that “Top Rank has informed its network partner, ESPN, and pay-per-view distributor In Demand to hold June 5 for the potential fight,” which is “contingent” on it taking place in Abu Dhabi.

Bob Arum recently claimed he’d “be announcing a major PPV fight for Terence Crawford this week,” so that tracks but also seems a bit premature. According to Mike Coppinger, there’s “no agreement for the fight at this time.”

We wish that this is a reliable information, June 5 is nearing, they need to finalized soon so both players can start training.
No need to market a lot as Manny itself will make this fight achieve their revenue target.

This is latest update for this match and is said that they're in talks and might happen this upcoming month of June. I think all of those updates are hint that there's a bigger chance this might come as a fight.

Let's all hope that we get to see Pacquiao box again. That's the hint and if those training news comes by April and May, that's a clear sign that the date that has been said is likely the targeted and locked date.

As long there were no papers had been signed up then these rumors cant still really be finalized and would remain unsure so lets take this a pinch of salt.

They might be in talks but not really making out arrangement but we cant really remove the probabilities that it can really happen.So we need to wait!

Yes, wait is the name of the game for this match.

Pacquiao seems to be busy with many things and all the rumors out there. But if this is going to happen and they'll put it into the media, the deal is already done if they're going to put it into public.

There are articles that says that this fight won't happen so it's really confusing until this rumor has finally become true.

Even with that AJ and Fury fight which also had the rumors that it could really happen but there are some news that i read up on other threads that nothing had been signed which means that it isnt still sure yet.Therefore,

when it comes to announces like these then same as you guys where i dont really believing that much that it could happen.Everything could be still in talks or assuming that they would be fighting on the ring but as long

it isnt still finalized then we shouldnt really hope too much if you are really an avid fan for you to avoid some frustration in case if it wont really happen.

There are articles that says that this fight won't happen so it's really confusing until this rumor has finally become true.

They could be right or wrong, there's no contract yet so it's normal to see people speculating about this fight.

Pacquiao just stated he will fight Crawford with some condition, if that condition will not be meet by the promoter of the fight, then I guess this fight will not happen, however, there are more positive article on this fight, so I guess it's still likely to be realize.

With regards to the update of this fight, we can only rely on the article that is coming out, therefore we need to ensure that the source is reliable so we will not have a wrong expectation of this fight, we all want to see this happened but without satisfaction of both parties, it will not likely push through.

Both are popular fighters specially Pacquiao, so they deserved a big fight and promoters will certainly try to weather the situation and look for the right timing. Remember that Manny demand a huge money in this fight, that would not be possilble without a crowd and a good venue.

Since there is no official announcement of the fixed date and no sign of contract that Manny Pacquiao will fight Crawford, it is still a rumor. I guess it will remain there, but let's hope that there is so that we will enjoy watching them, the two legendary fighters are on again on the ring showing their very aggressive fight.

But I think Manny Pacquiao also busy with his political career now, and I guess if this will not happen, he is also preparing for the upcoming Presidential election on the Philippines.

Yeah.

I guess when there are news like this, there will always be those articles that will be subject to the rumor. That's fine I guess as long as there's no validation that this fight would happen.

Those articles would come to confuse our thoughts and will just add flavor to the rumor so that it will always be in the talks.

[Sithara007]

I came here for a confirmation regarding the June 5th date, and now I am even more confused. As of now, there is no official announcement from either Manny Pacquiao or Terence Crawford. Since the story was originally published in a reputed source such as ESPN, I don't think that there is a good chance of it not being true. But it will be good to get official confirmation from both the sides.
