    Damn, first Thurman and then Crawford? At his age, that's insane, I still can't believe how much Pac has accomplished coming from where he started, whether you're a fan of his or not, you have to appreciate everything he's done and still trying to do.

      When you're that old as a fighter you have nothing to lose. If you lose the fight you were supposed to because you're old. If you win then its more glory to your legacy. Bernard Hopkins was doing the same thing taking tough fights in his 40s and he wasn't making anywhere close to the 20 million guarantees Pac is getting.

        I think he's goal was to fight the Three Musketeers (Thurman, Crawford, Spence) and take their '0' and their belts away.

          Correct, but the fact that he's willing to take such dangerous fights is something to take note of, not a lot of boxers are willing to fight those kinds of fights at any age, gotta give the man respect.

            That would be amazing if he did that, I like Pac, not a huge fan of his, but damn I give the man respect!

              He might want to get to Crawford chin before any of the other top fighters. Crawford has a ton of skills but that chin I question.

                  That's up to Pac he is the one calling the shots. It will either be Crawford or Mikey Garcia. Both are lucrative for Pac. PBC isn't willing to guarantee Pac 20 million minimum to fight Danny and Spence doesn't want the Pac fight next.

                    And if he was to lose, he can always go back to Mikey.

                      Guess your right.... And btw i think after his fight with Thurman his team will have more confidence making a possible fight with TC..
