    I think this would be a bad match up for Pacquioa. I don't think the fight gets made but if it does, I give Crawford the edge.

        At this point I just want to see Manny in with a guy who will go to war with him. Crawford is going to fight Manny like he fought Postol and likely win a close decision.

        Give me Thurman or Garcia or stay retired.

          Crawford is a terrible style match up for Manny at this stage of his career. Arum would love to throw manny to the wolves and sacrifice him to build up crawford. But I don't see anyway Manny's team allows it way too dangerous a fight. Expect vargas to be his next opponent.

                LMAO... Man you guys are tripping if you think Bud will give Manny problems. i like Bud but Manny would eat him alive. We're talking about Manny... Not Postol. Mannt fought TB 3x and won all 3... Lets be real here. The May vs Pac fight was very close and you can go either way with it. It's funny how ppl used to say Manny lost to JMM(Not the KO lost) and the first TB fight... They would say, watch the fight with no volume. Well watch the May/Pac with no volume and there's videos of fight and Manny out landing May. My point is, Manny fought TB and May and it wasn't hard. he will touch Bud and at 140, he'll probably KO him.

                  Wow. You really hate black people huh? Are you the owner of that body shop in Omaha? Crawford just cleaned out the 140lb division. I'm actually a big fan of Golovkin so you can't say I'm bias but all this coward and chicken talk you're getting on with is complete BS. Shame on you. Crawford just fought the other top 140lber and won decisively with 2 knockdowns and a boxing masterclass. You're European right? And let me guess, you were hoping Postol would KO Crawford? Talk about bias and being severely disappointed. The blame is all on Postol. He wouldn't make a single adjustment all night.
                  Postol was much higher rated than Golovkin's last opponent who wasn't anywhere near the same class and certainly wasn't at Postol's level. I know Golovkin wants to fight the other title holders at 160 and they are ducking him but I don't know how you can be so obviously racist talking about poverty and the projects just because you don't like guys who can move, counter and outclass their opponents with "boxing" skill.
                  If Pacquiao agrees to fight Crawford, there's no way in hell Manny wins a decision. He either knocks Crawford out early or gets completely out boxed by the younger, faster, hungrier Crawford. Remember what happened to Manny vs. Money? He will be even more confused and will get hit much more often without Floyd's ridiculous terms and TUE doping. If that fight happens there will be no excuse for Pacquiao. He will be on a level playing field.
