Comments Thread For: Pacquiao: Khan, Crawford, Lomachenko All Potential Opponents

I think its more so to keep ESPN happy. ESPN did MP promotions a solid by giving the Manny fight a US outlet at the last minute. Bob helped with that. He didn't do that for free.

Crawford no legit fight that anyone really cares about. Crawford/Manny on ESPN in primetime would easily do more than Horn/Manny and Crawford/Indongo.

Actually, his might be the fight to launch the ESPN PPV arm.

lol.. pac prolly didnt even know it was espn. lol...

pac mention crawford because pac is a warrior not because pac is trying to make espn happy. turn down for what??!!!

Let’s just pretend JMM didn’t exist and he didn’t lose in a near shutout to Floyd in a match that lost a ton of allure thanks to JMM.

i agree he lost to floyd by shut out in running and hugging but in terms of landing the cleaner and harder punches it was pac who clearly dominate.

[pasawayako]

Huh?

A lightweight JMM going up 2 weight classes looking like a bloated lightweight to face a welterweight Floyd is a good win?

Not to mention a weight stipulation was made during that fight so not to give Floyd much of an advantage and yet Floyd didn't even follow the weight stipulation and added another 2 lbs during the weigh so that during the fight, Marques ended up looking like a kid fighting a big bully in the ring firing punches that has no effect on Floyd. Is a great win lol

Floyd is like a giant comapred to jmm in that fight.

Why is Bob Arum sabotaging his own welterweight?
If Lomachenko(135 LB fighter, 140 at the MOST) doesn't fight Pacquiao(whose been a welterweight for a decade) some people might be let down, but it wouldn't be a huge deal.
Pacquiao is a welterweight champion, Bob Arums other champion in Crawford is a welterweight.
Crawford would benefit much more from a Pacquiao victory, older or not. Than Lomachenko. I understand Crawford is a humble guy but he really needs to vent his frustrations with Arum, that is ridiculous. This is him basically saying he doesn't care about making Crawford a star and has instead invested all of his eggs in Lomachenko. Watching a Lomachenko fight , and than a Crawford one, you would forget they're promoted by the same guy!

peds peds peds.

Like he’s the only one.


(Devils advocate here)

It only took Pacquiao a near decade to get a KO again...and self promotion...other country...no testing....over the hill 40 pounder.

As what tyson said a 50% pac will beat most of the ww and a 90% pac will beat everyone in the ww.

I’d bet a (alleged) roided Spence to beat a (alleged) roided Pac all day. Pac isn’t that small of a WW but Spence is huge.


Tyson is a HUGE Pacquiao fan. Sure, 50% Pac beats all the scrubs at WW but you’ll have a hard time finding a top five-ten guy youd feelcomfortable betting against with Pac.

100% Pac still doesnt beat JMM or Floyd...and that’s what this is all about.

Anyway, I’m not gonna debate matchups with pac that already took place as if they hadnt

Floyd would have always spanked Manny, Money had his number in his prime too.

Pac will beat every ww of today. Sorry floIV and jmm are irrelevant in boxing.

If the fight is a marathon and wrestling i will surely bet on floIV.
