    You proved my point which was that he wouldn't hang with Pac.

        Crawford is still getting experience.

        Many have tried moving up and many have failed moving up. It's a whole different game moving up even just 1 weight class sometimes.

          And Ricky burns, and 2 belts in 2 divisions, very impressive achievements considering that was all done by Crawford in only a little over a year. Hes bigger than pacqiao, 5"8 and was 154 fight night for dulorme which is about what mayweather weighs and more than pacquiao

              Veteran boxing observer, Larry Merchant, is sky high on the prospects of one Terence Crawford, who just recently captured the vacant WBO 140-pound title by halting Thomas Dulorme in six rounds on April 18th in Arlington, Texas.

              "I think that after he fights somebody at 147 and if he can show the same stuff he's showing now, I would make him no worse than even-money against either (Floyd) Mayweather or (Manny) Pacquiao," said Merchant this past Friday.

                HBO broadcaster hyping up an Arum HBO fighter. No surprise. FOH Larry....

                Floyd embarrasses him. Manny puts him down.

                  Crawford beats Pacquaio easily but loses via ko to Mayweather.

                    Merchant and I actually agree on something. Crawford is the future face of this sport if his chin can hold up (heard some rumors coming out about his chin.).
