If he legitimately beat them then yeah you could make a case for him as the GOAT...as others have said though it would be a curious performance for a man his age...I would personally be extremely impressed if he could even hang with Spence...Crawford is more of a technical fighter so I could see a relatively one sided decision there where some Manny fans then claim it was really a close fight
As for Ali, I don't really like to compare guys from back then to guys from now. It's just not possible to accurately measure greatness across different generations and different weight classes.
Ranking wouldn't change. Still #2 behind Floyd in his era. With a curiously robust late career.
.
Floyd fans make you laugh they never stop trying.
Pac s top 3 already. Many thinks Pac s goat already, although you could claim more have srr ahead of Pac still.
Floyd s not in most people's top 15. So constantly associating Floyd alongside Pac s name is cramping Pac s style. Because people kn ow flouds not top 3, people may think it's ok to wrongly think of Pac as not to p 3! That's why associating Pac s name with Floyd is not a good look for pac and pac would be best to distance himself from Floyd
Why would he rather fight Spence than Crawford? Same risk of losing essentially but Spence is more of a hitman than TC
Crawford is much harder to hit clean than Spence.
Errol is there to be hit and was tagged by Kell Brook several times.
People rsnt and rave about Errol sparring with Charlo bros but that literally does NOTHING to prepare for Manny. Mannys awkwardness and crafty veteran sneakiness will afford him several straight left hands.
We dont know how Spencer's chin will hold up. Hes never fought a world class fighter. Mikey Garcia is a world class LIGHTweight who he fought at WELTERweight.
Manny WILL touch Errol. It just depends on how Errol takes it and whether he can turn Errol the way he has so many in his career before him.
Crawford is a more dangerous fight because hes a technician and Manny is notoriously bad against elite technicians (Floyd, JMM) and Crawford is only now leaving his physical prime. Plus Crawford can stink the joint out and Manny seems to lose focus/rhythm on fights with low output
Thurman was active. He had a fight right before Manny.
Let’s stop with the excuses fellas.
Yep nearly stopped by a B grader after surgery and 2 yrs out.
Youre a child of imagination and fantasy.
What will be youre next what if fantasy thread lol.
Here is a good one what if Crawford pole axed Manny like JMM did and then Spence beat him to a pulp and Roach threw in the towel, what would be your excuse ?
