    Terence Crawford vs Prime Manny Pacquiao (the version Floyd ducked)

    Crawford that destroyed Spence vs Pacquiao from 2008-2009 that made Floyd say “health comes first”, who wins?

    Even though Crawford is Goat, personally I think that version of Pac-Man from 17 years ago would be a very dangerous fight for Bud at 147.

      Terence is a mobile counterpuncher with one punch power in both hands at all of their shared weights

      Juan and Floyd did it with their disadvantages in size manny weighed more

      TBud is significantly heavier than manny to top it all off

      TBud's c 0cktail of counters, running, and hugging would overwhelm and confuse the sht out of manny

      they're both southpaw so TBud has an open lane for that powerful jab with his dominant hand

      it'd land more and harder than Floyd's jab did

      manny gets picked apart at range

      his only option is lunging in and eating counters from a guy with one punch ko power

      except these counters are deadlier than the strikes of Floyd and Juan

      TBud all around bad style for manny

      in terms of ring iq TBud is miles ahead of Juan but clearly after Floyd

      manny gets hurt in the second half of the fight. maybe he gets knocked out maybe he hears scorecards

            In his own words, Pacquiao on blood testing -
            "The truth is taking blood out of my body does not seem natural to me and mentally I feel it will weaken me if blood is taken from me just days before the fight. That does not make sense to me why anyone would do that. These accusations of me using any performance enhancing supplements are totally unwarranted and unjustified."
