Prime Pacquiao vs Crawford or Spence. Who wins?

[pillowfists98]

I think prime Pacquiao would have beat Spence with his volume and crazy hand speed/punches coming at him from all angles. Spence isn't a good enough defensive fighter to handle that. Crawford would have been more difficult because of his style but I would still favor Pacquiao to win.

I think Spence would sort of play into his hands and he would be too quick and hit too often but Crawford’s style is all wrong. Pacquaio openly admitted that he found counterpunching opponents difficult.

they were talking about manny knocking out guys, and if it was easier for him to do it being a southpaw and most guys being right handed. the reaching on here.

Common sense here guys. Manny is a 1st ballot HOF'er. He has wins over HOF boxers. but there is a reason he never fought Raheem and avoided Floyd for so long-they are both bigger, more athletic boxers that can move.

Manny always had problems with movement and guys that could box. These mythical fights aren't against plodders like Clottey or Margs just standing in front of Manny.

Spence is just too big and skilled. He would knock prime Manny out brutally. Crawford is too long and would outbox Manny. He might get a late stoppage.

Just too much size and skill for Manny to overcome.

"big fights takes time to build up".. im surprise you're not running with this one here?

You have a proven record of lying about the past and changing positions based on outcomes. Nothing you post can be considered credible.

Says the dude who tried to compare Ray and Hearns to Spence and Crawford, and you still haven't made up your mind whether Floyd was carrying McGregor for 10 rounds or was he fighting hard.

Prime Floyd would just go on vacation for 6 years until those guys lose at least two or three steps. They will definitely be spent bullets first. Hell Thurman was his wbc mandatory; he could have fought him, and you couldn't get him to mention Thurman.

I'm a great fan of these guys. Who do you think would win?

The only person in this era that could have outfoxed a prime Pac-Man is Money May.

maybe crawford could present problems to a prime manny, still i think manny beats him (might even KO him) spence would be target practice he only moves forward.

If you thought I compared them as boxers then you are an idiot and a liar in addition to a flip fllopper.

If you read that I posted ray and Hearns fight was built over time , listed how many defenses each had, and this fight should be built over at least as many fights as well then yes, I did.
