    Nah! He just wants to make one last big score before he retires for good. He knows he's not winning this fight. He's only taking it for the money. Also, myself as a realist don't see how this fight ends well for him either. Well at least he is getting paid handsomely for it however. For $25M dollars any fight is possible to make.
    Oh really. So he beat Thurman convincingly and you think he gets blown out by Spence. That literally makes no sense unless you didn't see Spences last fight..

      He's Manny. Crawford will retire a nobody that no one cares about.

        You know Bud is hurting badly! He needs to fight Boots Ennis, or Vergil Ortiz Jr.! He's becoming irrelevant! His resume at 147 SUCKS!

          He's fighting Spence because he wants to get paid.
          What I actually mean is, that loss to Floyd left a sour taste, he knows he's in Floyd's shadow, so he's going to do anything to leave Floyd's shadow, he tried to fight Conor, IMO, to prove that he can give Conor a better beating than Floyd did, now he's taking fights that he knows floyd would never take( fights that he shouldn't take either)
          well, if he wins this fight, he finally leaves Floyd's shadow IMO.....it doesn't make him GOAT

            He won a very close fight over Thurman, the kind of fight that Floyd runs back....no one asked Manny to run it back because of the age thing....it was like Taylor vs prograis( IMO Taylor vs prograis should have been run a 2nd time)

                Pacquiao is just one of a kind. Him accepting this fight at this stage is another indication that we're lucky to still have him in the sport.

                  Why is everyone saying Pac is getting KOed? Spence’s last KO was friggin’ Ocampo. Pac knows what he’s doing

                    In all my years watching Pacquiao, I've always favored him over anyone he can hit regardless of size or skill level.
                    The speed and power was always the great equalizer.
                    But I do think this time, it's pushing it.
                    Fighting Spence would be akin to fighting a skillfull Margarito and at 42, inactive for 2 years, I don't see how Pacquiao gets it done.
                    The legend will put up a fight though, that's a guarantee.

                      Finally..... I legit was losing interest in boxing with nobody fighting each other.

                      And Crawford is ducking if he doesn't accept Spence is Aside he has zero leverage. Just toxic pride and entitlement
