Manny vs. Crawford, who ya got?

[Wizardsh]

Sounds like arum trying to put crawford over to me. Why wouldn't crawford go with the big money ppv fight? And what suggests crawford would be easily stopped by anyone?

Maybe because he has fought nothing but bums and barely Handel Gamboa and maybe because he fights with his chin in the air

[JmH Reborn]

Bud would kill the 2015/2016 Manny

The ride is over for TeamPac - it was great while it lasted and I'm glad I was able to watch him. At this point, fighting someone like Crawford would be brutal. Fight Malignaggi and call it a day

[Left Hook Tua]

The high volume, speed, and power of Pac will have TC backpedaling most of the rounds and TC will lose by UD or TKO

pac hasn't been high volume since 2011

crawford don't backpedal

Crawford wasn't exactly calling out the Pac-man after his last fight.

Crawford is a good boxer no doubt about it. But he hasn't quite reached the upper eshelon of the elite boxers just yet. Manny still has the speed Crawford has never encountered, and that would be his (Crawfords) undoing.
Manny being a natural southpaw, I doubt even a "switch-hitter" like Crawford could handle the speed, quickness, and footwork of a natural lefty. Especially one that has many wins over both stances.
A fight with MP,.???? That's a tall order to fill for young Crawford. He would be well advised to seek other options for his next bout.
My bet would be on Manny to win a decisive win by KO.

He went down once and his chin is bad now?

He got up and knocked the other dude down 3 times in the same exact rnd and eventually knocked him out.

He clearly wasn't hurt. Going down doesn't = a bad chin.

And I never said Crawford had a bad chin, he just leaves it out too often. And imam is extremely accurate.

No it's the way their body reacts when taking a flush shot. They both appear vulnerable in the moments right after.

this is a good point.

I need a better observant to tell me what is it.

For some reason, when Crawford gets hit flush, even if not hurt, something seems off. I see the same with Kovalev (and i love both guys) and saw it with Lucas way before the Postol fight. Same for Floyd over his past 2-3 fights...

Is it in my head? i can't put it into words or be analytical about it.

[Zaroku]

In Omaha, Crawford. In Vegas, maybe PAC.
But PAC needs to avoid tight socks. He & his team need to re- learn how to fill out forms that they used to know how to fill out, until the Floyd fight. Jump on the true American hero from Omaha, etc, etc..

Crawford needs to thump a few vicious right hands, and upper cuts to beat the one dimensional fighter.

Not at all

Taking a flush shot from A professional fighter shakes you Up no matter who you are.

One guys are just better at hiding it than others. Doesn't mean your chin is bad.

crawford don't backpedal

Exactly. I agree.

Pac is not some ordinary fighter who just so happened to win a couple of belts...hell to the naw!!!...Pac is a LEGIT ATG....one of the best fighters the sport has seen....Bud is the new kid on the block....don't know if he's EVER seen the type of speed Pac brings to the game.....I got Pac and anybody with a bit of common sense would favor Pac as well
