      Would be a great fight. I think Pacquiao goes out on his shield.

          Pacquiao too old and slow now for Crawford.

            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
            Floyd's win over Pac and Canelo alone trump anything Pac has done.

            People get annoyed by the undefeated thing but that has a lot of value. And it's not like Floyd fought bums...he was in something like 32 championship fights...and was a 5 division champ with wins over future HOFers: Corrales (prime and undefeated), Genaro (lone loss to DLH), JLC twice, Corley, Judah, Hatton, DLH, Gatti, Mosley, Cotto, Canelo, Pac, and I prolly missed 5-7 more

            Pac a beast but lots of his wins have asterisks. He avoided drug testing for almost 5 years which will not age well. Most hold RJJ with an asterisk as well as Mosley. Their peaks were very high but likely tainted. Same goes for Manny...high peak, refusal to steroids test, and an entire media platform ignoring his juicing...was hilarious.

            Floyd is def ahead atm

              By Associated Press, Omaha World Herald, Sun, 26 Apr 2020

              There seems to be new momentum behind a possible fight between Omaha native Terence "Bud" Crawford and boxing legend Manny Pacquiao. In a recent interview with Boxing Scene, Crawford's promoter Bob Arum said he's had "tentative talks" about staging the mega-fight. He said he "had feelers out" to Read Full Story >>>

                It will be interesting seeing how Crawford deals with this possibility.

                  Pac was already way ahead of floyd in atg and many boxing legends already think that pac is the GOAT.

                  If pac is an american he will already be hailed as the god of boxing because of his unbelievable achievements.

                    I tend to agree. Mikey has a fan base and it would be closer Vegas odds, and bring in sum good money. I’ve been watching sum very young Manny and boy could he thump. All the credit in the world that he’s still fighting and at such a high level, it’s hard to comprehend even. Hes not as close to as aggressive or hits close to as hard comparatively to his youth but that’s measuring him against himself one of the most aggressive hardest punching fighters in history. I think he can beat Mikey who can start slow and run out of time. My brother thinks Mikey times Manny with a right and ends him. I like all these fighters. But I think Bud can really put it on a guy when he wants to. If anyone thinks Bud is an easier fight for Manny they can beat on it. I’d love to see the Bud fight more than the Mikey fight, but even if it does happen everyone will be surprised. Also then everyone will complain how everyone is overpaid. Get sum turd undercard.

                      I respect your opinion but also disagree.

                      Beating either Spence or Crawford at this point in his career puts him ahead for me...and that's even with the steroid use in 2009
