    Make it happen. PAC has been shot since that Marquez nap. Crawford will tear him up.

    I think pac quits against TC.

    This sets up a pistol and provodnikov fight for TC.

Crawford will never sell 500k+ PPV's as the A side even if he were to fight & beat Manny.



      That decision hurt him no question. I think the fact that he can't stop guys hurt worse in this regard. He'd be like a 147lb Holyfield if he could KO guys. I contend people wanna see exciting fighters who can stop guys if all else is equal. And Tim had a persona that people dig & a style hardcore boxing fans & casual fans alike flock to. Not being able to KO a lady in a wheelchair is a problem doe (would be a ref stoppage at best). Need a sexy KO to wins numbers ratio on your record.
      Crawford has done nothing but beat a blown up jr. lightweight or feather in Gamboa. Let him beat John, and Postol first.

        Manny is finished, TC will make him quit or take an abrupt nap, like JMM.

          I don't disagree with the first part, but TR knows if Pacquiao vs Crawford is gonna happen its gotta happen in April(?) since Pacquaio is one & done.

            “It’d mean a lot,” Crawford told BoxingScene.com. “It’d take my career to the next level.”

            The 28-year-old Crawford still isn’t sure Pacquiao will want to fight him next spring, when the Filipino superstar is expected to return to the ring following a loss to Floyd Mayweather Jr. on May 2 in Las Vegas and subsequent shoulder surgery.

            I don't think Pac knows who this guy is.

            Pacquiao has fought too many rounds, been in too many wars. Time for the legend to retire.

              Man you on point with that crawford does make plain ass andre ward look less bland, that says a lot about crawford lol, crawford is the black miguel cotto, seriously, doesnt smile much, just fights exciting, no real charismatic personality just answers in a professional manner like a robot. Crawford is exciting to watch but lacks charisma. Crawford always looks exausted like low energy maybe its because he is raising young kids and has no time to rest?

              Bradley has the personable image, he has personailty, but i agree his lack of power hurt him combined with the pacquiao gift. If bradley had some power with the way he fights he would be an easy sell, doing some good numbers 400-600k buys i believe.

                  Mr. Crawford, get the KO and you'll get the fight! If you get the KO, you'll become the front-runner because Roach and Arum are looking for a Jr. WW for Manny, and now that Matthysse lost, the ball is in your court!

                    so you want him to talk wild **** like floyd and broner to sell himself?? but if he does that he becomes hated overnight. since golovkin just flopped on PPV maybe he should start having more "charisma" too right? lets see GGG make it rain dollar bills at the strip club, TMZ will cover it and just like that, more PPV buys ..good idea dont you thing.
