In a recent interview (Sunday-Mail 4 Apr 21) where Jeff stated that he had yet to decide on retirement, he was asked about his recent fights and what he may do in the future if possible. He said there are two fights he'd like to have again, rematches against Manny Pacquiao and Tim Tszyu but not Terence Crawford. "He was a brilliant boxer and a skilful guy and I wouldn't get into a ring again with a guy of his class."
On Packy he said that was the fight he was most interested in and he'd heard the fight Filipino's wanted to see. A rematch might tarnish his win he said but it was chance to shut up those who said that he did not beat Manny at Suncorp.
On Tim2, he had health problems before their fight, "I fought like crap against Tim Tszyu. But do I have the same hunger as Tim to take on another fight with him? That's what I honestly need to answer with myself".
My conclusions, for someone who has faced both obviously Crawford is in another league compared with the now Pacquiao.
