Crawford fans keep insisting that TC is greater than Pacquiao. But how can a 5-division champion be greater than an 8-division champion? They say it’s easy — yet in the entire history of boxing, there’s only one 8-division. If it’s really that easy, then push Crawford to chase those divisions too.
Pacquiao proved greatness by beating fighters who were naturally bigger and had longer reach. Meanwhile, Crawford mostly faces opponents smaller than him — that’s not greatness, that’s an advantage. I’m not saying Crawford isn’t good; he’s talented. But if he wants to match Pacquiao’s legacy, he still has time. Do what Pacquiao did: move up, conquer higher divisions, win that 8th weight title, and fight opponents your own size and reach.
What about Floyd? Sorry, but a runner-hugger can’t be the GOAT.
I'm obviously conceding that it was a poor choice of words on my part. You want to imply nefarious intent because you enjoy having protracted arguments about inanities.
If what you're doing here is retracting what were claiming then I commend you for that. I gather that's what you're doing albeit you've not made it as clear as you could have.
However, I still won't tell you what to and what not to write on your post, that's entirely up to you.
I genuinely couldn't care less what you want to edit your post to, that's totally up to you if you'd like to do that. That was never my contention.
I was more interested in how you came to the knowledge of what you were claiming, thus why I asked you how you knew.
I'm currently still unsure how you knew.

I'm offering you an immediate and obvious resolution rather than doubling down. You should be pleased, unless of course you're just here to bicker endlessly about trivialities?

I don't mind, that's up to you.

I'm just confused as to where you've got this information from?
You're calling it an asinine argument when I'm quite positive you've just made that part up, or at best just assuming that it's the case based off nothing. Unless Floyd has actually said that? I'm not aware that he has, if he has then share it and I'll stand corrected.
You seem to have this habit of pulling things out of thin air for some reason.
You didn't answer my question. Would you like me to edit the post?
If I edit the post to replace the words 'be the first to' with 'possibly' will you write a substantive reply or find some other reductive passage to take issue with in order to start another of your asinine arguments?

Why do you keep acting like Floyd Sr. Motivating Floyd is proof he was losing?
The scorecards show clearly Floyd was never in danger of losing.
I don’t use compubox to score fights but the punch count doesn’t show what you’re posting here.
Manny had 2 good rounds, I believe 4 and 9.
Manny lost clearly and plainly. I get you are going to do anything you can to minimize Floyd winning but you make yourself look real dumb doing so.
Manny didn’t come to fight. He didn’t throw like he used to. Bob blamed it on a shoulder injury. His stans say it was because he was shot.
Which is it?
Can’t you just grow up and accept the fact the better man won?
If everyone fought like Mayweather there would be virtually no interest in the sport, every fight would look like Jones - Hopkins 1. Floyd would be the first to admit he needed aggressive, come forward fighters to make his name against.
So yes, he was 'better' in the sense that he had the perfect style and circumstances to (mostly) deal with aggressive come forward fighters. He had almost no ability to entertain when his opponent was outclassed.
People who supported him on the TV like to hold onto that as some mark of superiority over people who supported different guys on the TV. This is nothing more than a desperate psychological phenomenon from men with unsatisfying lives of their own.
To emphasise once more: all you did was watch it on the TV (and quite some time ago now).
How do you know that?
Daily reminder that Floyd beat Pac and is rightfully TBE :lol1:

I saw Floyd yesterday and he told me Pac hit like a girl. I said bro you were the one holding onto him like he was your boyfriend.
We both laughed and he admitted he peed a little when Pac got too close.
He then wiped his ass with a 100 dollar bill and threw it in the trash and said "tell proud lunatic that I appreciate him".
True story.

Your boy Teddy feels Pac was a dirty fighter who sued May rather than fight him
The only known fighter to behave in such a cowardly manner
