Comments Thread For: Roach: Arum 'Pushing For' Pacquiao-Crawford; Fight Concerns Me

[Drew Bundini Br]

CRAWFORD vs PAC would be a huge plus for boxing.

gonna be a lot of hurt feelings when crawford comes up short and is NOT the one like his fans were hoping for.

He's almost 40... you really want to see him fight Crawford at this stage?

Damn, you must really hate Pac because Floyd was too scared to fight him until he was 36 and suffered a KO...

What kind of excuse making is this? Manny is the biggest name at ww on TR's roster. Arum loves doing in house fights. If Crawford beats the Horn/Cocoran winner then the next logical fight is Crawford/Manny.

This is the same logic you had with Floyd. Instead of Conor, you wanted him to fight a Thurman, Spence or Crawford because that is what historically happens, old guy near the end fights young guy on the come up.

Come on, don't change now. I saw Manny begging Conor for a fight but Dana put the kibash on that.

So the choices are Crawford or retire. Hopefully, he gives his fans one last chance to watch him. I'm sure I will enjoy it. Should be an epic beatdown, unless Crawford takes it easy because he feels sorry for the dude.

PAC kept fighting the half decade older JMM so what's the problem?

you can't be serious

The ugly side of boxing, the cash out!! Someone on here said it would be good for boxing.....really...was Holmes vs Ali great for boxing?? Cotto vs Martinez?? Tszyu vs Hatton?? Tszyu vs Chavez?? Norris vs Leonard?? Boxing is a young man's sport unless you are disciplined to take care of yourself like Mayweather/Hollyfield.... Manny is too busy to stay on great to peak shape... Crawford is all wrong for PAC - faster/younger/hungrier/p4p anyone denying is delusional

Old guard gives way to the new guard, it's just the nature of the sport. Of all sports actually

[WesternChamp]

this is part of the game. out with the old, in with the new. i just dont think its crawford's time yet if he goes up against pac in 2018. if this fight happens, im going all in for manny for one last ride. taking ALL bets!! real money or not. riding with pac til the wheels fall off!
