    Yeah you said that but it was Errol Spence who pretty much ruined himself outside of the ring

          Funny you say this about Spence now. Did you say this when he was scheduled to fight Manny? Naw you didn’t.

          Manny signed to fight him you said he was healthy despite the eye injury. Crawford beats him and suddenly you change your perspective of Spence.


          Even if pac and bud best the same opponents at WW, pac would've been considered to have had greater career at WW as he started at much lower weight.
          Bud took 5 years to best Spence at WW, that win isn't great in hindsight when you can see spence has did nothing since and he's certainly not pf p no5 now, or even top 40 pfp. I can only bring myself to say it's a decent win

            Crawford is doing that now after he unified all 4 titles at ww. He did same at LW and JWW. He is scheduled to fight the cash cow in Canelo next in the fight that has been talked about since it was announced.
            Just keep it a buck. Canelo don't need Crawford. Canelo has waay more options.
            You comparing a guy who doesn't fight in Crawford to a guy who fights everybody in Manny. At ww Manny could head a card and do great same with Canelo now, whereas Crawford can only headline in his hometown.

            Crawford is in the same vein as past fighters like his boy Ward, Bhop, Winky, even Pernell. Guys who are technically good to their own detriment. That's not a bad thing it's just how it is. Floyd was the same way until he came up with that Money May persona.

              A reminder - Crawford v Spence sold 650-700k ppvs. Manny v Thurman sold 500k ppvs.

              How exactly did Crawford do more ppvs than Manny if Manny fought “the guy “ as you claim?
              .
              Lol Manny is 40 walking out of boxing performing like that

              Crawford in next fight against a no name opponent dropped roughly 600,000 so who was responsible for pulling that 600,000

                Lol. Crawford isn't even as popular as fighters in his current generation. Tank, Garcia, hell he can't even keep up with those guys.

                Instead of sh""ting on Manny, maybe he should call him up and get some game on how to market yourself

                  This makes absolutely no sense. Crawford didn’t start at ww. He unified LW and JWW.

                  Spence has done nothing for less time than Thurman did after he lost to Manny. So the Thurman win can’t be that great either, if we are using your same standard to evaluate both l.

                    Hmm. Manny dropped 200k in sales from Bradley to Vargas. So who was responsible for the 200k?

                    How many ppv sales did he have with Horn? Oh yeah, that’s right, it had to be on ESPN because no one would buy such a garbage fight.

                      Telling the truth by showing the facts isn’t sh-tting on Manny, you over sensitive knob gobbling stan.

                      You have 0 credibility or integrity.
