      I said elite... Have Crawford even fought someone that's great?

        How many south paws did Manny face that were simply good? GGG hasn't fought anyone great, but that doesn't mean he's not an elite fighter. Same with Crawford.

          I'd pick Crawford too.

          I'm a big believer in him. I think he'll be the best at 140-147 for a fair few years.

            People riding on the crawford hype train. He looked good against gamboa and lundy but not good enough where i can conclude that he has a chance against pac.

              Call me foolish, but i think Crawford stops Pac at this point. People saying that Crawford doesn't have this and that fail to realize his ring IQ. Crawford power would make Pac tentative and his faints and educated jabs would confused Pac. People don't realize without offense Pac's ability is limited.

                Wouldn't be surprised at all if Crawford topped Manny at this juncture. You really gotta factor in pure hunger and youth into this...both of which are heavily in Crawford's favor at this point. Hell Manny couldn't even pull the trigger in the biggest fight of his life. Now yeah granted that was Floyd, and TC, as good as he is, ain't no Floyd. Or even close. But still. We're talking about an end of the road Manny Pacquiao here. And on the other hand you'd have a young, hungry, in his peak prime Terence Crawford. At worst he'd definitely have a shot.

                  Even on NSB, there is no one as bad as Kellerman for ******ed historical comparisons. He just name drops all over the shop to sound knowledgeable.

                      why are people saying pac is done after losing to floyd? he took absolutely no punishment that whole fight..on the contrary floyd was the one buzzed more than a few times. .there is nothin in that fight to suggest manny is over the hill. .if crawford comes in thinking hes facing a fading legend hes getting sparked out in brutal fashion. .

                      i pick pacquiao at this stage, crawford in my opinion should take on postol.
