Manny Pacquiao offered $10 million to fight Terence Crawford

[Jesabela04]

though he's 43, Manny still in good shape. they are very comfortable discussing the fees with the public. Terence will likely ask for more than $10M, he could demand more than that he has a title and if Pacquaio will really fight whoever he shares in the ring then a few more Million won't make Manny back away fight. amidst the current situation, these fighters will want more than just one fight.

I'm one of those who are waiting for the next fight of Manny Pacquiao. If this match happens, I'm sure that Manny would really prepare hard for this fight. He mentioned in his previous interviews that he will do his best on his last matches before his retirement so we could expect a good fight from him.

I guess the deliberation is more on the promoters side as they are the ones who are going to risk big money since this is a $50 million guaranteed fight for both fighters, 40-Manny and 10-Crawford, that's a huge one, promoters has to ensure they'll profit.

Since there's a pandemic, they can't generate more tickets on this fight in the usual MGM Grand. One option is to held the fight overseas wherein pandemic are now being controlled like in the Middle East. But for me, still the same. It can't match the audiences in the MGM Grand even at 50% attendance.

Promoters don't want to rely on Pacquaio's fame so they are working hard on any options available to reach the expected revenue for the fight.

has there been an update on whether the fight has been finalized? I read an article last week where bob arum says that they were expecting a decision before the end of the week whether the fight between Pacquiao and Crawford can happen. there are also talks about proter and Crawford fight which will be exciting to watch too but it would be a shame if Pacquiao and Crawford's fight didn't happen.

There has been no update yet, I'm checking an update of the fight from time to time and I did not see any update. Probably they are in the talks already and just carefully analyzing everything before they finalized their decision.

In his last interview published yesterday Crawford said that he has 2 options for fights one is with Porter and the other with Pacquiao and he would prefer to fight Pacquiao. I guess it's because of the money. Also, he's going to get 10 mill, not Manny. Manny is getting 40, but I guess most people already know that if they read any of the articles. That's going to be a good fight that's for sure. I hope they won't play the covid card and reschedule.

Even without reading articles, it's sure that Manny will get the most distribution. And actually, it was on the first post lol.

Moving forward, and also posted here, promoters also need to ensure that they will get big income here. $50M alone is just for Pacquaio and Crawford and they have lots of expenses to take care of. Actually, that price is nothing only if there's no pandemic.

doesn't need more time to prepare for any fight

Maybe that's your opinion.

But even before a match has been announced. He's already preparing for it and had enough time to prepare. And even without any match, he's putting himself into training with his regular routine.

Training for a boxing match and regular workout is two different things.

Manny might be physically fit but it does not mean that he is boxing ready, 8 weeks is ideal training duration and more than that, he might over trained (just don't know much what's the effect of over training  ).

I never heard about over-training. He has his advisers and trainers that would certainly follow the schedules that he needed to fill.

It's about the preparation and whether it's the boxing training or just regular workout, they're just the same IMO. As long as he keeps up with his body's need to train.

They are fully aware with that when it comes to overtraining or simply things that can give out some fatigue and they wont surely commit those things if they know that would be the result.

His job isnt really a big hindrance for us to tell that he would be on the big disadvantage of this fight. Terence Crawford isnt a fighter that you should really be confident off.

we know his capabilities and this isnt a boxer that Manny pacquiao should really be letting his guard down.Even if he's great but doesnt mean that he would be invincible.

I disagree with it, regular training is not a heavy training that usually what happened during the actual training in preparation for a fight. Manny said he will start training which means he is preparing for a fight although we know he is constantly maintaining his fitness through regular training.

Both are different IMO.

Not just money but everyone below Manny's league is willing to take any offer as it's a privilege and dream to face the legendary Pacquaio on the ring. It will be a good recognition if he will able to beat Manny so it's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

It's a bragging mode to see in a boxer's portfolio that something like Manny Pacquaio will be on their defeated boxer list.

[Silberman]

Pacman's legacy has been cemented already, and he is just pushing it more though by fighting champions after champions or undefeated boxers. So he has nothing to proved except his longevity in the ring and probably wanted to be the oldest welterweight champion.

Yes, him and Floyd should face when Pacman was hitting his prime, destroying everyone, including as big as Margarito. But Floyd is wise enough not to challenge him that time and waited till Pacman lost already and started to decline.

While that played without a doubt a big factor we must also remember that boxing promoters like to milk bight fights and instead of giving the fans what they want they like to generate expectations so they can get more money when the fight finally happens, however the match between Floyd and Manny despite its huge hype was not really entertaining at all which is why there is not a lot of desire of the fans to see that fight again as who wants to see a fight like that with the issue it will be of an even lower quality due to the age of the fighters.

I guess you guys are right and have a point.

Every match of Manny, he's not careless. He takes seriously his match all of the time, so I don't know where it came from that he shouldn't let his guard down because he's always taking caution for every opponent he box.

I believe there are times that he was careless, like the fight against Manuel Marquez for instance, he was careless looking to KO him but unfortunately he was hit by a big counter punch and that sent him to the canvas and Manny was not able to get up anymore, after that loss, he learned and has matured.

Arum: We’ll know this week whether Pacquiao-Crawford can happen

No update until now, so what's the status of this fight?

Will it still push through or just a trying to give the fans some excitement but it would not really happen?

Basing off on this link. https://champinon.info/schedule/pacquiao-vs-crawford/#close
The fight night will begin on Saturday, April 17 at 7:30 p.m. ET / 4:30 p.m. PT.
There's already a schedule which means this fight is already fixed but I agree that Arum didn't still give a word so those proclamations or announcement
aren't final.

I can't remember the moment but I remember the match and we know Marquez is his arch-nemesis.

Yeah, probably from that KO he has learned from it to be not careless anymore.

The on-again, off-again fight between Mikey Garcia and Manny Pacquiao appears to be headed full steam ahead toward an official announcement.

If you ask Garcia (40-1, 30 KOs), he’s apparently in the driver’s seat to fight the Filipino legend and eight-division champion Pacquiao (62-7-2, 39 KOs).

“We’re finalizing all of the details. We hope to get the exact date and location in the next few days. We’re trying to get everything done for May,” Garcia told journalist Jo Ankier in a spontaneous chat in a vehicle moments after Canelo Alvarez’s win over Avni Yildirim on Saturday.

“It’s been in the works for a long time, particularly more in detail in the last year. Now, in the last few weeks, we’ve been getting very close to working on this and finalizing it. I’m pretty excited. We’ll have all of the details set in the next few days. It’s a matter of time. So far, it seems like all of the parties are on board. I’m excited for it.”

Mikey Garcia Says Manny Pacquiao Fight Is Close To Being Finalized For May.

If this fight push through, obviously, it's Arum fault for not giving Pacquiao the money he wanted. But I'm not sure though how much will he get fighting Mikey Garcia. We all know that Mikey is not a true 147 lbs and even if Manny get's less money, this is a win-win for him.

[Kemarit]

^^ I would love to see Pacquiao fight Crawford because Terrence is one of the best welterweight out there. But in any case, settling against a over ballooned Mikey is not that bad. We are waiting for Manny's return and I think if he can win against Mikey, he can still get a crack on Terrence Crawford next and fight for his belt.

So there's no love lost here, Manny is still one of the cash cow of boxing and everyone wanted to get into the sweepstakes, including Crawford and Porter.

[Xinarae*]

Pacquiao will also fight crawford for the win crawford is looking for increased revenue in his top ranking deal which will help in the fight against pacquiao or spence the campaigner is confident that keeping one of his top athletes in favor of fighting the most in his fight and not wanting to leave the top rank even if it works with PBC’s al hyman to sign spain it is in everyone's interest for us to do this together. If they can win the upcoming fights a potential fight will raise two undefeated stars against each other.

seems like there is an update according to this article, Ryan Garcia gave up on the Pacquiao fight due to some issues that came up. the article also mentioned that Garcia will now focus on other fighters instead of Pacquiao. I guess the fight between Pacquiao and Crawford is really on the way and it will just be a matter of time before we hear an update if their fight is going to happen and when.

Surely, Manny Pacquiao is one of the cash cow when it comes to boxing due to his reputation and popularity he'd made. Only a few handful people denies a request on a fight with him. Terrence Crawford vs Manny Pacquiao will be hit which everyone will be interested especially to us Filipinos. Currently, Manny isn't on the greatest form as he was before but surely he will win on this match up.

When it comes to money, even if he offered him 10 million dollars, he can easily win it back and even earn more than what he offered to him. With this match-up, he can earn 10 times or even more with just this match up whether he win or lose.

It's old article though, back read a a few pages and you will see that it  was discussed already and even his coach says that Manny is not a good match for Ryan at this point in his career, Manny will be too much for the young Garcia.

As for Mikey Garcia, Manny all the way here, Mikey Garcia will be too slow for Manny here and I will say it is a bad stylistic matchup. Manny will just pot shot him with left, this is probably just for the big pay check that everyone wanted to get out of fighting Manny Pacquiao.
