When Crawford gets tagged, he wants to fire right back.


That really favors Manny. I don't agree with Bradley.

:qqq: Would have been a great fight. Id love to see Crawford Bradley though.

It would have been a fun fight. I keep thinking about how Gamboa was getting to Crawford often though

[.!WAR MIKEY!.]

enough with the bromance you fags.

Bradley's friendship with Crawford cloud his judgement. I can't take anything he says with too much salt.

[jvsnypes]

There's a strong possibility that Crawford wins at this stage. Manny is not the same fighter he was 5 years ago. If we simply go by styles and Manny at his best, then no, Crawford wouldn't beat him.

There has always been fast and strong fighters. What made Manny so difficult to beat was his unorthodox style. His movement and the way he threw punches were very awkward. Its a style that these young fighters don't see coming up in this amateur program. It would take a fighter like Crawford multiple fights with Manny to adapt. That goes for Bradley as well. I think he has that style figured out and it will take for Manny to knock him out to win this time around. I think Tim wins on points. It was a mistake to fight Bradley for a 3rd time. He has a trainer in Atlas that will keep him disciplined and stick to his technique. He will adapt much earlier in this fight and will not go toe to toe. Crawford would have made the mistake in going toe to toe and he would get clipped.

Gamboa (then undefeated pro, gold medalist at olympic) is exactly the same height as Pacquiao. And Crawford had control of that fight from the start to the end. Bradley said it himself: Crawford is the future of boxing, he would not say that of someone if he didn't tought it was true. Why are they such good friends? Because from their first sparring, he was impressed about how good Crawford was and he always said that he would become a world champion. Then style wise, Crawford is terrible for Pacquiao; he's got more reach, he's taller, he would fight him southpaw, he would counter an overaggresive Pacquiao, establish dominance, and maybe end it late. And Crawford is a very tought guy, he surely can take Pacquiao's punch, he has never been knowed down as far as i know.

thanks for teaching a new english phrase hahaha

Me too. Considering how short (I mean shorter in height and in reach) Gamboa is. Surprised also that he hurt Crawford before he was KOed.

How sweet. The two close friends both claim their buddy is too good for poor defenseless Pacquiao. First Crawford claims Bradley won the first Pacquiao -Bradley fight. What a liar. Pacquiao won that fight by a mile and Crawford knows it. Crawford also said Bradley would have won the 2nd Pacquiao fight except for injuries and his pal Bradley will knock Pacquiao out in the third fight. Wow. Bradley hadn't scored even a knockdown in many years. Then Bradley stops a Rios who was in pathetic shape and Bradley suddenly becomes a knockout artist who will KO tough Pacquiao. Now Bradley returns the favor and says Crawford would have defeated Pacquiao if they had fought. This Pacquiao fan thinks Pacquiao will score his THIRD easy dominate win over Bradley regardless of the huge robbery of their first fight. If Pacquiao had fought Crawford at 140 pounds I think he would have won every round and knocked the overrated Crawford out.

Yeah I'm not a fan of Bradley or Crawford at all two very overrated champs

[jas]

Theyre friends so of course hes gonna say that
