Comments Thread For: Crawford: Pacquiao is NO Champion, Thurman is WBA Champ

[ADP02]

Marquez that knocked Pacquiao stone cold at the same weight.

See you just proved my point, silly Floyd fan!

PLUS

You are having a hard time with my questions, I see!

I don't care about you questions fool. I don't dance to the tune of someone as gormless as you.

Get back on topic instead of trying to turn the subject.

Pacquiao is NOT a world champ.

Oh, now he wants to get back on topic?


You just had to respond truthfully and take your lumps but you couldn't do that!

Going to avoid the 12+ pages which I’m sure has reverted back to Manny fans and Floyd fans bickering about decade old BS.

Crawford isn’t wrong. Thurman is the real WBA champ at 147. That said, Crawford should still fight Paq for it, then he can force a fight with Thurman once he’s back and 100%

In my opinion, Pacquiao is more of a champion than Thurman is. At least he is active. Thurman has been out nearly two years for arthroscopic surgery on his elbow and a bruised hand? GTFO!

Thurman WAS the champ, but now he needs to be stripped and earn it again. This is getting ridiculous.

Again I agree with you. I can't even say with confidence that Pac was actually even chasing this title. Matthysse was just the right opponent who happened to have that trinket as an added bonus. Had matthysse not had that belt I think he and Pac still would have fought it was pretty much a fight just for the sake of fighting.

Agreed. Whatever the case the fight was obviously the proper one for Pac’s career. He looked very impressive and is back on the map and in line for big fights. Can’t argue w the results I guess.

More fighters should come out bash the WBA regular.

I personally don't recognize the WBO.

WBO got a history of big names holding those belts

Wladimir Klitschko, Michael Moorer, Anthony Joshua, David Haye, Oleksandr Usyk, Arthur Abraham, Miguel Cotto, Philippines Manny Pacquiao, Floyd Mayweather Jr., Oscar De La Hoya, Mikey Garcia, Vasyl Lomachenko, Mexico Juan Manuel Márquez, etc, etc

WBA regular its just a #1 contender to the WBA super.

Crawford should be saying that Thurman is the #1 guy at 147 , He did beat both Garcia and Porter to get those belts

Big D,
Last week you wanted Errol Spence to fight Manny and now Crawford. Where is your list of top dogs for if Floyd comes back? He said he was coming back, remember?

Floyd had guys like Thurman and Spence but chose Berto and McGregor his last 2 fights! It's time that your hero steps it up! Lets see Floyd show us who is the real man!



.

why would we ask the same thing of a retired fighter as we would the WBA regular champion?

I've asked for Manny to participate in a unification fight with any of the other champions. You, western and the rest of the very worst Manny cum gurglers have an issue with that and I can't understand why.

Well, that isn't true. I understand you guys don't want to see him get his head bashed in but if you fight professionally that might happen.

If he can't hang with them then give up the belt and retire. Otherwise, let's have fights that establish a new legitimate lineal champion.

No real boxing fan should have an issue with that.

[NachoMan]

I completely understand that but really what else is there?

I mean which would you prefer-Manny/Crawford or Manny/Broner and if he wins, Manny/Floyd 2?

As loath as I would be to see Broner get paid again, I think Pac/Broner might be a lot of fun to watch. No need for Pac/Floyd II regardless of the outcome. Pac/Crawford is just a horrible mismatch at this point (Holmes-Ali type mismatch). Money isn't worth the damage to his health or legacy.

Lmao Exactly! Anybody with common sense should know this.
These Pacquiao fans don’t use their brains that’s if they have one.
