    What is a nignog? And why should they die?

    Can you clarify your statement???

    I just want you to claify terms for an older guy?

    Please help me understand, as I hate to interpret or speculate too broadly.

      Pacquiao is shot. The fighter's spirit is gone. He's a ****ing politician now.

        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
        Fight Paulie, & whip him for pointing out potential roid use, fade away...

        Option two
        Fight Pauline, then Berto, avoid the young lions, etc, and retire before you get hurt.

        Retire and live your life.

          do people realize that mayweather is on a level that nobody is even close to?


          you cant exactly compare mayweathers performance to anyone else. because simply put theres nobody close to him today let alone the past decade.


          thats laughable as a boxing fan (brushmyhair on the 1st page) to suggest that mayweather laid this easy blueprint that now any slick fighter can now execute, as if 1) pacquiao is just some pushover and 2) someone can even come close to emulating what mayweather did on may 2nd

                How can Mayweather provide a blueprint when Pacquiao already loss several times before fighting him?

                I got Crawford winning, because he has that fire in him, like Pacquiao he is one of the few fighters in boxing when you hurt him he comes back, Erik Morales is like that, Pacquiao is like that, and Crawford is like that, when you hurt them they want to get back right away while stunned.

                Crawford size and power and boxing ability and switching from both stances will confuse Pac.

                  If Crawford fought Pac the way he fought tonight then Manny wins.

                      Even though the long stiff jab from the southpaw stance can give Pacquiao trouble because Pacquiao never really faced that and the fights where he lost a decision where fights where he couldn't really adjust well to the jab (against Mayweather and Morales), I still think Pacquiao is a slight favorite in this fight if he comes to fight.

                      Pacquiao is a much smarter fighter than people give him credit for, he might not have the necessary head movement to slip the jab but he sets a lot of traps, and I don't think Crawford is gonna be able to fight on the outside all night like Floyd did and fight a disciplined long distance kind of fight, he's gonna try to exchange at some point and that's what Pacquiao wants, Crawford also doesn't have the ability to tie up his opponent and neutralize the action when needed, so Pacquiao's experience can be a major factor.

                      One thing for sure though, if this fight goes the distance, Crawford is getting the decision no matterhow the fight plays out, Arum won't let his future cashcow lose to a retiring old fighter.
