Comments Thread For: Arum: We'd Like To Do Pacquiao-Crawford For 11/14 Or 11/21; Nothing Concrete

A low risk high reward fight for Crawford. He ran from Showtime Shawn Porter. A big, young, and physically strong WW. He will probably run from Kel Brook too.

As good as Manny performed vs Thurman, we have to realize Thurman isn't the same fighter. Even still Manny can't stop anyone at his age. He doesn't have enough gas at 41. Which means all a younger fighter has to do is weather the early rounds.

All these fighters take the least path of resistance. Except for Showtime Shawn Porter and Canelo Alvarez.

even at 40 i pick pacquiao to win. crawford is highly skilled i just dont trust his chin. manny will hurt him

[MxicoFistology]

You'll have an excuse for Pac too after TCrawford stops him before round 9...

Yep cause crawford already beat all the top welterweights in the world, he already beat Spence, he already beat thurman, he already beat danny garcia, he already beat ugas and shawn porter . Yep , Crawford is stopping all these elite welterweights , im so terrified about manny losing and coming up with an excuse................... ...

Keep dreaming bud hater. Lol keep praying and hoping that bud can't get a fight. Pray he keeps getting ducked by your favorite fighters.

You'll be the first to make excuses on why bud lose to an old, past his prime, senator and part time boxer pac.

If he can`t get Pacquiao, Crawford should fight Ugas.

Manny: Do it Bob.
Roach: I don't think so.
Crawford: Yeah sure at 140, not taking a pay cut, $10M guaranteed.
Bob: I fear for Manny's health, but...$$$

All these comments are nauseating. If you want to favor Crawford in the fight, I 'll give you that. But all these comments Crawford is going to kill Pac, stop the delusion. You out here picking apart all Pac opponents, Crawford opponents to date aint worth a damn. Crawford can be hurt, we 've seen it with Gamboa, we saw it with Mean Machine.

Pac even at 41 is still better than anything Crawford has ever seen in the ring and I reckon he will get to Crawford at some point with his speed and rhythm and do some damage. Remember Crawford likes to mix it up when tagged and he will be right in Pac's wheel house. Both will give as good as it gets, but Crawford is not killing Pac.

Pac out of his prime but still beat the most accomplished welterweight in Thurman, that is saying a lot and am not even sure I would favor Bud by much if he fights Thurman. Easy to look good if you are fighting the Benavidez and the Mean Machine of the world. Let the fight happen and we 'll see. I might even put money on Pac for the upset.

Since when do you have to stop anyone to win. Manny is now a boxer puncher, selective with his punches and preserves himself, so the early rounds theory doesn't hold water. He has a shot against everyone with maybe the exception being Spence (assuming he is still the same), who will likely pressure him, impose his size and carry him too fast where his legs in the later rounds may betray him.

when Marquez fought pac, he always fired back after pacs flurries. He could counter punch but always got back at him immediately, just as you described Crawford tendency to do. And it doesn't matter if it was the 4th fight, Marquez gave him hell all 4 fights.

And if you truly did watch pac fights, you'd know that aside from Floyd, every fighter that gave pac a tough time wasn't a defensive specialist but instead aggressive and didn't let pac throw his combos without getting heat back. Crawford is going to kill pac if they fight.

yeah and he loss all those fights until the 4th one playa!!! got dropped like 5x too fighting like that! do you even think before you type homey? lol.
