Cashout fight for Manny? All the pressure will be on Bud. Pac's place long secured. Bud's career began well, but over the past few years, negotiations B.S. promoter/haggling has hampered his career. And with Spence comeback fight, that even took some of the luster off Terrence's career. At least IMO!


If it comes down to this: Filipino senator Pacquiao is reportedly open to fighting Crawford if he could take $40 million from a $50 million purse, with the remainder due to his challenger


No reason for Bud to turn it down, he knows he's the B side regardless of how past prime pac is. 10 mil vs who else to offer that?

Bud will probably turn it down. 40/10 might come across as a slap in the face. I'm all on board with Pac's legacy and all that... but 30/20 would've made it a little more palatable. Who knows? Bud might just surprise me.
Indeed a slap in the face. I'd rather be slapped with 10 million by an over the hill legend than to be respected for 5 million by a primer!!

Well, Bud's "only" made 8 million in his career, so I see your point. And yes, you and I would take the 10 million in a heartbeat. Then again we don't have the ego these elite fighters have.
