So Horn should be a huge draw now then right?

PAC lost to a Horn? Horn who? That's news to me.

Personally, I feel if Loma is going to jump up for a fight, Garcia should be his first choice. Manny is 39 and coming off a loss. Loma would get far more credit beating Garcia at this point.

Even if Loma did fight Manny and beat him, the chance of him becoming a star is slim.

For his fights at 140.. Bud was coming in at Fight night at about 155lb from what I remember.

And Manny's highest weight at 147 is 152. Wow. 3 lb difference.

TERRENCE IS TOO BIG FOR MANNY

LMFAO

lmfao...wrecked it.

Manny was only ever a big star while he was chasing Floyd.

After UD12 there is no interest in him, period.

Freddy trying to cash Manny out. Roach won't let Manny fight TC because TC finishes the crooked Filipino, but Roach thinks Manny might be too big for Loma. So Arum trying to milk Manny - whatever attraction he might have left - into Loma

He should just call it a day

As of now, PAC is still the biggest draw among Top Rank fighters. Arum trying to milk PAC up to the last drop.

all this article did was give me the ****s.
1) lomachenkos manager doesn't want him coming up 2 weight divisions but he was happy to make rigo come up 2 weight classes
2) Freddie roach says PAC can't make 135 but he walks around at 138, he can't lose 3 pounds, wtf

Can't recall last time Floyd fought an opponent almost 4 inches taller and who walked around at least 25 pounds heavier. Someone refresh my memory. While you're at it remind me who he fought in his last two fights...anyone in Crawford's level? How about in his entire career...anyone in their PRIME at Crawford's level?

Closest example would be boxing noob Conor McGregor. Conor had I believe 1 or 2 inches of height on Floyd and was probably roughly 25 pounds heavier when they fought. He was also arguably in his fighting Prime when they fought.
