Comments Thread For: Pacquiao's Adviser on Rejecting Crawford: I Don't Like His Style!

Smart duck. Crawford would have given Manny the business.

[Kagami Taiga]

So basically this is a duck, rite? Or do Kellerman and the idiots around here give Pac some special deference in these things?

Is anyone really surprised by this move?

[DSGteamko]

To be fair, Crawford's can't complain. The head trainer said "**** Pacquiao, he had his chance" and Crawford said the fight had to be at 140. Be careful what you say, it might comeback to haunt you...

That had nothing to do with ctawford not getting the fight. Stop making excuses

Once I saw Jessie Vargas's name being floated around I knew Pac/Crawford wouldn't materialize. Its a shame because it would have been an excellent fight!

I was at the crawford postol fight, as well as the Third Manny vs Bradley fight. I personally feel that Crawford would lose to manny. He would get knocked down in my opinion. Mannys footwork even diminished is superior to MOST in the game.Crawford is able to be hit and hes still a poor mans version of floyd(NO ONE IS LIKE FLOYD) Postol was SLOW, like wow slow. I didnt know how slow he was. I sit damn near ringside, so im not blind. But TBUD is NOT that bad of a style for manny at all, but at THIS MOMENT. I agree, it was smart to go this route. As NO boxer EVER is where manny is today, a politician. If it were that easy, Boxers of the passed such as Ray Leonard who speaks very well in public, would run for it. But thats not the case, I get it. They want to keep manny happy. But by taking this fight, they are sticking their big toe into the life of being a part time boxer and part time SENATOR. The homie just had a meeting with his president of his country. I don't see Floyd chillin with Barry lol. I dont like the fight as a paying customer, (ill be staying home this november) but smart move old warrior. I think manny pacquiao has earned the right to cherry pick a little, he still has the best resume in boxing today.

Manny apologist...and a ****** casual to boot.

they want someone who is gonna fight...not run around the ring and make you chase him. True they want a tailor made opponent. One that is going to make it more interesting. Crawford is becoming one of my fav fighter...Bt that lame ass run fest he did with Postal makes me wonder. Im not to sure Crawford could beat Vargas really. Crawford has Garcia Bradley even Vargas He should be fighting. A evenly matched fight with Postal should have made a statement but didnt. Who really has Postal beat? Lucas? lol Crawford just fought a undefeated fighter in a lame boring fight. And won. Vargas just fought s young undefeated fighter and stopped him

Ha!!! Manny would get his ass knocked out and you know it.

[Da Boxer]

In other words....we are just going to duck Crawford.

Would be hilarious to see a young prime huge guy being chased by an old non prime fighter.

And everyone had seen such fight before in the Pac/Mosley fight. They were both booed heavily including Pac, who got a sprained ankle at the time and couldn't move his feet.

But I still wish Pac picked him if only to see team Crawford price themselves up.
