Comments Thread For: Potential Crawford Conquest Adds New Layer To Pac-Mayweather Debate

[Jab jab boom]

There’s not much to debate. Of the common opponents, mayweather beat better versions of almost every one and then easily beat pac head to head. Pac will not come anywhere close to beating Crawford, so the “what if” in that scenario is a waste of time.

You built this article around your opinion not the evidence which is poor journalism.

Right you are; however, as Mayweather selected McGregor for his fiftieth win, he even diminished that record. Another thought: I just wish that we could have seen Mayweather fight Manny back in 2011.

I wish we could have seen Mayweather fight Pacquiao in 2009-2010.

It's a shame that Pac ducked stricter drug testing and robbed us of that.

It's true that Floyd schooled Canelo and his resume keeps looking better and better with every Alvarez win.

But that has nothing to do with me.

Isnt that the green version of canelo who was weight drained and later lost GGG1 and at best got a draw on GGG2 and since hasn’t fought a real challenge?

Glad to see some people still can't take the facts. Great article Lyle! Top notch journalism here.

Jose Luis Castillo resents being called a "legitimate commodity."

Honestly Id be super surprised if Manny agreed to fight TC or Spence I just cant see it .

If Manny legitimately beat TC I'd rank him ahead of Floyd. With wins over undefeated Keith and TC that'd do it for me even if Floyd was better H2H

journalism? thats like saying the election was stolen is journalism. this is all just fanboyism. floyd schooled pac even though pac landed the far cleaner punches? its right there on video but ok if you want to play pretend make believe fantasy world sure he schooled him with grazing jabs while pac rocked his head around.

was he really better head to head...really? if you watch that fight now with the emotions taken out of it floyd doesnt really do much at all. if you are just going by punches it was a pac win since he landed far more clean shots while floyd struggled to land anything cleanly. there was just too much emotional attachment for people to handle in that one. they wanted a pac whirlwind attack it seems and when they didnt get it...oh i guess floyd is outboxing him...cept he wasnt. he was being hit with the cleaner shots.
