    You can see their skill levels and the difference in toughness..Thurman was not even on the elite level when he fought Manny as he was injured over and over again..Crawford is fresh,tougher,meaner and far more skilled

      I would love to see that fight. I think Manny has a decent chance of beating Crawford if he's in top shape. 60/40 Crawford. There are two proven ways to beat Manny. The Marquez and Horn ways which Manny has learned from and can beat with difficulty, and the Mayweather way, which still gives him trouble. Nobody else came close (probably Morales, but he went on the beat that style convincingly). I've seen Crawford rocked a few times by quick but lesser counter punchers, but I haven't seen anybody put him in trouble for an extended period without him figuring out the puzzle. If Crawford's weak chin is an illusion, like Lennox Lewis's was, then Crawford wins 60/40...with difficulty. but something tells me, that his chin is like Donald Curry's, just a solid punch away from being cracked

        Yawn. This almost KO'd business is boring. Thurman has been hurt in many fights, he fights on and gets the wins. Fighters get hurt all the time. His only career loss is against an all time great in a close fight.

        It's easy to look skilled and tough when you're not fighting top competition and I know you agree so I don't get your point. Thurman was the #1 welterweight in the world when Pacquaio beat him, no excuses.

        It's all about what's on paper, what you have proven and accomplished, who you have fought. None of this eyeball test, shoulda woulda coulda stuff. SHOW ME PROOF.

          Thurman alone would make Crawford look average.

          I liked how he fought in the Pac fight. He went toe-to-toe and stood his ground even when he's in pain. Remember, Thurman at one time was called Run Time Thurman. Really surprised I didn't expect how brave he fought in the Pac battle.

          Pac didn't beat Thurman by a landslide. It was a close fight.

            Fans should be clamoring for Thurman vs Crawford, instead.

            And I think it would even be bigger than Crawford vs Spence.

              I.ll say it more clearly, Thurman was not near his best and Crawford is.

                An old, past prime, part time boxer pac is still very capable of beating the top ww of today. I hope Crawford would fight thurman and that will be a very close fight.

                  You and your anti-Pac rants. It only makes your inconsistency as transparent as saran wrap.

                  Don't Spence keep calling out Thurman every chance he gets? He's even pissed off that Thurman just keeps ignoring his calls. Errol calls Thurman a fake and corny individual. That's how desperate Spence is to get his hands on Thurman.

                  Porter and Danny Garcia also wants their rematches with Thurman. Young fighters in their primes want One Time. Yet somehow you don't mention they're cherrypicking Keith. And you only do when it comes to this 42 yr old out of Prime Pac.
