    It's racism. Folks can't believe an Asian fighter could be listed among the ATG. That despite folks LOVE their Asian martial art/combat anime shows or Bruce Lee. The irony.

            Lack of insecurity. The same reason why Floyd started hating on Pacquiao. Ya remember there were a time when Floyd was a fan just like Crawford was. But because fans and boxing analyst would debate on the idea of if a fight between Crawford and Manny ever took place, who would be the winner. Crawford started feeling insecure and jealous. I just saw a clip of Crawford on the Joe Rogan podcast and Crawford was straight hating on Manny, talking about the fight between Pacquiao and Horn. Crawford said Horn won the fight so that Crawford could hype up his win against Horn.

            Look at this clip of Crawford trying to convince to Joe that Horn won the fight. Even Rogan was thinking like what.................

              Thats a damn lie. Go watch Hopkins vs Trinidad. George Foreman was praising Trinidad the whole fight and wasnt giving hopkins any credit.

                  Floyd and most black fans hate on Inoue Their reason? "He needs to fight in the US".. "He needs to fight a real contender"... "He needs to move up in weight"... "He needs to get random blood tested".

I think Pac would have had a hard time with Bud post prime, but young peak Pac in 2009-2011 has the best chance to beat any man from history 147. Nobody had faster hands than peak Pac, as one opponent told me, he couldn't see the punches.
                    100%...people were impressed with Crawford's speed against Canelo, however, PRIME Pacquiao had the fastest hands, feet and combinations I've ever seen (plus power). There's a reason why Mayweather WAITED for him to age and rack up a few losses before fighting him plus I don't think Crawford would be able to handle his speed/power either. Don't forget he got dropped by Lithuanian Kava at Welterweight whereas Pacquiao has either dropped or knocked out Thurman, Marquez, Bradley, Mosley, Matthysse amongst others at the weight.

                      Foreman was very fair and I don't recall ever hearing him say anything racially offensive. He didn't see colors, great man.
