    Spence and Crawford need to fight. I can see if Pac beat crawfird, people will be saying spence was better than crawford.
    Pac S best of era. He don't need to be fighting thurman, spence and crawfird! Please forgive me if I've missed any other names out Pac has to fight, it's been a long day and I'm a little tired

      this could happen, like in the thurman fight. that early KD gave manny an advantage. the only difference is that crawford, imo, has a better engine than thurman

        pacquiao needs to be in perfect condition to pull this off.. although bud doesnt pressure as much as thurman, keith was starting to turn up the heat on manny towards the later half.. crawford is much more dangerous if he gets the same opportunity thurman had with manny in the later rounds. pac will need to hit crawford hard in the early rounds like how he did to thurman.

          Great fight. I've got Bud but if Pac wins he goes ahead of Floyd ATG rank...and he makes a real case for Top 5-7 ever. EVER.

            I agree and I'm very confident that ab old, past prime and part time boxer pac is still 50-50 fight against crawford.

              This is a way to take the play away from Spence and PBC while also getting some leverage to Bud in the negotiations with Spence. He beats Manny, he has the name on his record and they have 2 titles each.

                  Can someone who is in the know , enlighten us and tell us is Pac still with PBC ?
                  Yesterday a member posted a promotional PBC video for the covid
                  Manny was on it
                  So does this confirm he’s still with PBC ?

                    It doesn't sound as if your being serious. Floyd s best win is a former flyweight with 70 fights under belt.
                    Pac has never been behind floyd. Pac should have 66 wins under his belt in 8 divisions. That's more wins than floyd has had fights. And with 39 kos under belt that alone is nearly all of floyd s career

                      I can't see Pac winning this fight. Even if he does enough to win in the eyes of most observers, he'll likely get robbed in favor of the younger fighter. I respect him for going after the best at this phase of his life and career, but Crawford would be a bit too much. But this what he does, he fights the best at their best as a champion.
