Pacquiao will fight Crawford for $20 million — Adviser


Manny Pacquiao is willing to duke it out against two-division world champion Terence Crawford if the price is right, according to the senator's adviser, Michael Koncz.

Crawford, 29, is seen to pose a serious threat to eight division boxing champion Pacquiao given his style and rare ability to fight from both stances. He holds an unbeaten record of 30-0 with 21 KOs and has defeated a Freddie Roach fighter,  Viktor Postol.

"If it’s Crawford that Top Rank wants for Manny Pacquiao then we’ll fight Crawford, but we want a guarantee of $20 million," Koncz told boxingscene.com.

Pacquiao became a welterweight champion again when he dominated Jessie Vargas in his last ring appearance in November.

Crawford, meanwhile, fought and successfully defended his light welterweight title thrice last year and won two of them by stoppage. — BAP, GMA News
