Current PBC would prolly fukk Crawford up...have him fighting once a year :francis:


I know they say Haymon only takes 10% N pays these guys secret checks as well

But Crawford won't be getting his million dollar paydays...called FOTY candidate...fighting Lundy, Postol, Molina at PBC

Being TR HBO has its benefits...Bob could be robbing him tho you right :beli:


Crawford could stay at 140...move up to 147 N still get a tune up in the next 2 yrs N there would be lil backlash

He moves to PBC...he immediately gotta fight Swift, One Time, Spence, N the moment he takes a Berto fight hell get slammed

Why is Floyd on the promo? Just a business move from AB?

Floyd promoting the broner fight :wtf:
dam broner stupid. he gon let may steal all his shine just cause he big bro:stopitslime::dahell::mindblown:


It's a co-promotion because Leonard Ellerbe does all the leg work like he did for Broner/Theophane....which was another About Billions Promotions/Mayweather Promotions fight.


It's actually the BEST co-promotion tandem working, because Floyd/Ellerbe handles the media obligations, AB controls the press conferences/interviews, and the fight becomes promoted as it should, and bigger than it would be if it was just 1 or the other


Why do you think Adrien Broner vs Ashley Theophane had it's own 30 minute special....for a Friday Night, Spike TV show?:mjpls:


Floyd got that done:obama:

Im going to always remember the AB vs Molina, Swift rumored to fight Molina...........................and then Crawford vs Molina, and how the media reacted:shaq2:



TR/HBO is a safe haven:manny:



Last 5 fights:


Dulorme, Jean, Lundy, Postol, Molina = :blessed:

Molina, Porter, Allakhverdiev, Theophane, Granados = :scust:

Peterson, Malignaggi, Guerrero, Vargas, Thurman = :pacspit:




It is what it is....PBC boys get graded on a tougher scale:yeshrug:

Broner isn't really criticized for his opponents though... At least I didn't really read about it.

Danny also isn't criticized because of his overall resume but because eve though he fights elite opponents time to time he sometimes allows himself opponents who are joke category like Samuel Vargas or Rod Salka, those two are far worse than any current Crawford or Broner opponent, let's strike Vargas out though cause when he fought that guy they already knew the Thurman fight is done but the Salka fight is really hardly justifiable.

And they also criticize and/or hate him because he won questionably 2-3 times already while he's still unbeaten on paper... Although I see that latter one is not his fault it irks many people... :yeshrug:
I admit that Danny get too much hate from some people and they should also give him credit...

this is true...broner gets the bulk of criticism for not "being floyd"..esp to floyd stans who were looking for someone to latch on in the post floyd era

If they aren't raising Andre Ward's pay for a rematch with Sergey Kovalev, then he has EVERY right to refuse to face him again.

I know we have had this conversation breh, but I am forgetting, what do you think Ward should make?

Just going off my amatuer armchair research here, but Kovalev got roughly $2 million and Main Events says that is all the PPV buys allowed. I would assume Kov takes a rematch and gets about the same. Seems fair.
HBO isn't financially providing purses, since it is PPV, so basically all they do is help market, do the TV rights, and get a percentage of the event. They take like 9% of PPV buy revenue to cover their expenses and get some profit.
That leaves revenue to RNS. According to the last fights numbers Ward should have been paid $2-3 million (under deals fighters typically get), if it was based strictly on buys, but he had a guarantee from RNS that allowed him to get $5-7 million. Great for Andre, bad for RNS. Unless the second fight sells a fair bit more, would RNS up the amount guaranteed to Ward? Even if they are already losing money on his guarantee?

Seems like if they paid Ward (rounding for math) $6 million, Kovalev would still get his $2 million. That is still a 75/25 purse in Ward's favor, which is insane considering the first logically should have been 50/50, but Ward's guarantee. :wow:

I think if RNS gives Ward the $5-7 million for a rematch, Ward is winning big and should be expected to take the fight.
