      I don't think Pacquiao should be worried about what people think at this point! Brook in the UK probably sells more than Pacquiao vs. DSG or Porter in the U.S., and Pacquiao has a better chance to win!

          I do agree its biggest money to fight Brook in the UK, but if I'm not mistaken he has another fight or 2 with PBC. in my opinion Brook is a tougher fight for Pac that DSG. Brook is huge for WW. And it brook fights pac the way he fought porter, Pacs in trouble. Pac cant handle inside fighting unfortunately. I think Pac vs DSG is fireworks

            You're assuming Brook will be the same at 147 as he used to be! I'm not so sure about that! PAC vs. DSG is a better fight, but Pac is fighting for money at this point, or at least he should be!

              I didn't even brother to watch the fight becuase I already knew the outcome. Same thing with Khan vs Crawford unless khan has loaded gloves.

                It should be obvious that the reason why Broner does not throw a lot of punches is because he is a gutless wonder. Throwing punches opens you up to counter punches, throwing combinations opens you up more than single punches. Only in the US could someone like Broner get away with such cowardly behaviour and still be treated as a serious boxer, is it because he is black? Or is it too hard to tell it like it is?

                  I'm a Crawford fan, but I don't remember Crawford challenging Manny's statement. There was also a BScene article where Crawford's trainer said that Pacquiao had to come to 140, or no fight! I think everyone thinks Pacquiao swerved Crawford because Freddie kept saying (many times too) that Crawford was all wrong for him!

                  Let's not forget too, that Pacquiao was willing to drop to 140 for Lomachenko, and he didn't want it either! Manny really had no choice but to go to Haymon! What do you think about Pacquiao vs. Brook @ 147, with a rehydration clause?
                  I don't think Brook's eye sockets will hold up...

                      EVERYONE was surprised Broner didn't throw a lot of punches. I thought Cunningham was smarter than that. Team Broner are all dumber than a box of rocks. Even casual fans knew Broner had to let his hands go to have a chance. What a waste of talent. He should retire and do something else. His one shot at PPV was a flop.

                      I was one of the few that thought he had a legit chance, IF he let it all hang out and let his hands go. Boy was I wrong.
