Manny Pacquiao Vs. Adrien Broner: Latest Info On Date, Venue, Money And More
Manny Pacquiao must have been signed with manager Al Haeman, which means he is now part of the huge stability of the valetweights of the premier boxing champion.
At the age of 39, Pequiao did not see any signs of retirement or serious retirement. After winning the Ticos on Lucas Matheys in July, he won the WBA title only. Now Pequiao is moving forward in discussions with Adrian Bronar. Actually, a sure war will take place near the Pequiao camp.
Here we know ...
Date and Venue
January 19, source confirmed. PGB MGM Grand Arena has filed for this date. America's first pakeway in America will be the fight since the all-party congressional victory over Jesse Vargas at Thomas and Mac Center in Las Vegas. The $ 30 million tax debt in the United States has prevented this country from contesting so far.
TV
Haymon has a broadcast deal in place with Showtime and Fox. You can bet a Pacquiao vs. Broner clash would be seen on Showtime Pay-Per-View. Pacquiao and Canelo Alvarez are the only proven and active PPV attractions in the sport. Broner may not be the fighter many thought he'd become, but he has consistently been among Showtime's biggest draws. If the fight is signed, the pre-fight hype will garner plenty of attention as Broner is never at a loss for crowd-stirring comments.
Money
Per a source, some insiders believe Pacquiao's deal with Haymon will assist the Filipino legend with his tax debt# Thereby freeing him up to compete in the United States# The purses have not been shared, but Pacquiao was guaranteed $20 million when he defeated Timothy Bradley in May 2016#
For a bout against an opponent with Broner's fame, it would seem Pacquiao could rake in at least the same amount# Broner's confirmed purses have never been anywhere near what Pacquiao has earned in his career# Broner has never fought in the main event of a pay-per-view and he took home a reported $1 million for his 2017 scrap with Mikey Garcia#
However, against a legend like Pacquiao, and on pay-per-view, Broner could easily see an 8-figure payday#
The Potential End Game
Pacquiao wants a rematch with Floyd Mayweather, a longtime client of Haymon@ The two men talked about it last month and even floated a December date@ Now it appears that fight would presumably take place in May 2019, provided Pacquiao defeats Broner in January@
Even if Haymon is footing Pacquaio's tax bill, he and everyone involved stands to recoup and profit from what figures to be two huge paydays@ If Pacquiao beats Broner, a rematch with Mayweather is still a significant event commercially–despite both men's advanced age@
If Broner wins, an intriguing and theatrical pre-fight build to a mentor-vs-protege bout could be on tap between The Problem and Mayweather@ No matter the outcome, it's not a bad six-month plan for Haymon and Showtime@
Stay tuned for more information as it becomes available@
