He may only have 40% (speculated purse cut) slice of the cake but that will be his biggest paycheck in his whole career and he might get bigger earning that Spence.
Crawford might get bigger earnings than Spence on this fight even with a 40% split? How can this possibly happen? Spence is considered the PPV King and almost all his fights are sold-out. That's the reason why he should take 60% of the total purse.
Spence will not give an inch in this negotiation, I think his ego is too big to get the smaller cut even in PPV numbers. He will insists that he is the main draw.
But Spence is dangerous, he will never allow Crawford to just go wherever he wants. As for now, I'm still in favor of Spence winning the match.
Yes, because he is manage by PBC and knows all the tricks in the book to have the advantage in negotiations. So not sure how Crawford will deal this, maybe get someone to look at the contract first before signing. Someone that knows contracts very well.
