Jake Paul is the better fighter of the two brothers (not saying much). Logan was beaten already by another YouTuber....... It's about to get real for Mr. Paul. Jake has even said Logan's making a big mistake.
If the goal is to make money, I'm not sure how this is a mistake. Logan Paul is promised $1.5 million in fighting plus 10% in PPV revenue. So he'll probably earn in excess of $10M for a night's worth of getting his face punched in.
Last i heard Pac was ready to sign on to fight Bud but bud didnt sign because of a huge money disparity between what he`d be paid and what Manny would get. Thats disappointing as he is my favorite fighter but he needs to realize Pac is the attraction and gets all the benefits in negotiations.
Think Pac is going to fight Mikey Garcia and Bud is looking at a move up to 154 lbs. He has one more fight on his Top Rank deal then hopefully links up with Al Haymon to make the fight with Spence. If we don’t get Spence - Crawford in their primes we riot
Bud should absolutely not be moving up at this point especially if his contract is about to be up with TR. Now that you mention the one more fight thing that really makes me wonder if hes betting he can get a bigger pay day for a Manny fight without TR.
Jermell Charlo and Brian Castano are fighting for the undisputed super welterweight championship in July. I would like to see Bud against the winner if Spence is off the table. Both of those guys are repped by PBC
He should be treating that Pac fight as a loss leader, and assume he'd make it up in the Spence fight. Even so, that would be his biggest payday of his career. No one cares about the disparity when you drop a legend and a name brand in 5. He's 33 and needs to get to work on putting a stamp on his legacy.
If Charlo wins and Bud moved up and won that would be a pretty big notch on his belt. It could then set up a big fight at 154 with Spence.
73,000 in attendance. Broke Ali's record.
If there weren't any covid restrictions he would have gotten over 100k. Once again, Canelo is the biggest star in combat sports bar none.
