I don't see how Pacquiao cannot beat Crawford

Pacquiao is a done commodity, But his brand fights on. The name would look real good on any of the top young lions resume.

nope, he didn't, it doesn't even show that he made an any edits. you don't realize it there's proof he didn't edit his post, there's no proof that he did Hahaha K! :dunno:

You realize he edited his posts or no you did not? lol nope, he didn't, it doesn't even show that he made an any edits. you don't realize it there's proof he didn't edit his post, there's no proof that he did

lol he can't read "guessing" vs "gassing" You realize he edited his posts or no you did not? lol

Pacquiao demanded $20 mil to fight Crawford, he chose Horn instead. That should tell you all you need to know. Right. Manny needed to get paid to fight Crawford. Course there’s the resentment Manny would have knowing Arum would want him to lose to Bud. How it works. See both sides of it. I always had Floyd beating Manny. I think Bud is a challenge prime for prime. Manny has one KO in ages. Bud is the most impressive active fighter in my opinion.

This fight would end in decision...

You think Mike Tyson was top 5 ATG HW and you have a May/McGregor avi. That means your should probably do more reading than thread making. Give yourself a chance to learn about the sport. I like Manny but the guy is done at the top. It'll be sad when someone like Crawford has to prove it to you guys. Agree with everything but the last part. I've long been a fan of aging atg fighters fighting young lions. If pac wins and beats a top5 p4p fighter who's 10 years younger, he cements his greatness. If he loses, he passes the torch. Same applies to Crawford, or lomachenko when it was discussed. They should fight Pacquiao. They have a lot to win. So does the sport.

People get OLD. :boxing:

Prime Pacquiao torches Crawford. Crawford is basically the GGG of his weight neighborhood. His resume, for a P4P guy, is f**king terrible. Peak Pacquiao was a special, once in a generation level talent, when Crawford's run is done he'll be just another nice fighter who is forgotten. Today of course anybody would be insane to favor a 39 year old Manny Pacquiao who has been in 70 f**king fights, but still it would be Crawford's toughest fight of his career sadly because dude has fought nothing but B level guys and down Because he hasnt fought eite comp thus far doesnt mean TC will struggle with Manny he could ice him as JMM did but you could also be right as you can never write of great fighters like Manny, so many fans must see a fighter go to hell and back to actually realize they are the complete package in elite class against anyone, thats the difference with the best trainers etc they know the potential they just bring them to the boil with thought to milk the business side while maturing the fighter like wine, its a fine line often with careers on the line, boxing is very unforgiving in and out of the ring. Crawford carrying a little less power is more like Tommy Hearns than a GGG, Hearns had great natural boxing skills with explosive KO power, where as GGG is probably more of a Hagler type but not quite as rounded as what Marvin was or as slick, Hagler had better feet and was more in rhythm, GGG is somewhat rigid.

The problem is that Pac is taking the retirement path of least resistance. He clearly does not have the desire to fight the elite or he would have fought guys like Spence, Crawford, and Thurman and instead chose Vargas, Horn, and Mathysee. Pac can get any fight he wants still because of his name but he clearly wants nothing to do with elite welterweights any more. His top level confidence seems to be gone. I'm not blaming him because he is well past his prime but it is what it is. I wish he would make one last big fight with one of the top welterweights but that is not going to happen. Agreed. I don't blame him either. Begs the question, though, as to what he did with all his prize money that he has to fight at all?

Crawford is younger, quicker, sharper, more skilled, and fights a style Pac has always struggled with. It would be ugly and depressing to watch Crawford humiliate Pac and beat him up.

Yeah and even with his losses, Broner is actually still a pretty good draw. AB will sell the phuck outta this fight and its a winnable fight for pac fans to believe pac will win, and if he does, he gets Floyd Joy. Its a win/win for everyone.

Yeah and even with his losses, Broner is actually still a pretty good draw. man that idiot broner don't deserve no pay day. manny fighting him does nothing for his legacy as well

I'll be one of the outliers and go with Manny. I'll put money on him if this fight ever got made. He'd be the underdog so I'd get a nice payout.

Even in his prime I dont see Pacman having an easy time with a versatile guy like Crawford. Current pacman would get that ass beat though. He second guesses himself now. This pacman is not the real pacman. When was Pac gassing? I said he second guesses himself. I dont blame him though after Marquez took his manhood. lol he can't read "guessing" vs "gassing"

You KNOW, and so does MOST PEOPLE, that knows boxing.....knows the difference between HYPERBOLE and REALITY. Last I heard was Broner saying he got a big contract and apparently they werent lying. He can possibly make a lot more money with this fight alone. But no one said 100 mil, Pac wouldnt fight Crawford for less than 20mil, so of course it wasnt 100mil. But great move for Mayweather Promotions, they will make money off of a Broner vs Pac fight and more in the May vs Pac II. Great business move :boxing: Yeah and even with his losses, Broner is actually still a pretty good draw.

Broner wants $100 million to fight Pacquiao though. You KNOW, and so does MOST PEOPLE, that knows boxing.....knows the difference between HYPERBOLE and REALITY.

I don't see how Pacquiao cannot beat Crawford. I'm a fan of Bud, but Pac still got enough left power and speed to be able to defeat Bud. Plus Pac's experience. You people who thinks Bud gonna beat him, how? What you dont see is Crawford, not fully, and thats why you think Manny can beat him, you seen Manny look great against a washed up JWW that was terrified when he got touched. Manny will look like the old Manny if he fights a prime elite WW let alone Bud Crawford. They feed fighters to guys to make them look great and that what Mannys last fight was all about, look good and get a big fight like a May rematch, he is not back as a new Manny they just gave him a bag with a name, he will not fight the very top guys unless he is about to retire, they will all beat him right now.

I wudnt even wanna see it...first couple rounds would be crazy action but Crawford gonna slowly wipe Manny out. That age diffrence will do Pac n
