    canelo made the same mistale pac made vs floyd.. they thought they could out-box him.. impossible. every tough fight for floyd was against maulers. he dominated anybody that fought him at his pace.

      Pacquiao upsetting Crawford would be one of the biggest wins in boxing history given where Pacquiao stands at in his career at the moment. The megafight with Mayweather took place in 2015, more than 5 years ago. He could have retired then.Crawford is is about to start coming out of his prime but he is very much a killer in the ring still.

      Canelo as good as he has become was not viewed at as that "guy" until his close fights with Golovkin which took place 4 years after the Mayweather fight.

      It doesn't matter either way to me though because I do not see this older Pacquiao coming close to where Crawford is at currently.

        Exactly this.

          Bud by many has been told that he’s beaten nobody but paper champs and past prime fighters, Canelo’s win over a prime Austin Trout is undoubtedly better than anything Bud has!
          Lmfao Austin fawking trout haha wow
          Look at canelos record wtf did he do to earn a floyd fight? Nothing it was another calculated risk by good old floydie. Canelo was green really green.
          What would make the pac win better is that Bud isn’t green he is in his prime

            Clenelo was ranked about 18th P4P when he fought fluid, Crawford would be in most top 5 P4P, not a hard decision

              Would it a better win than when Floyd Mayweather who was the pound for pound king an 2 division champion at the same time at age 36 defeated young Canelo Alvarez who was a rising 2x champion?

              Let’s debate!
              - -What grade U in?
