If Manny fights and beats Crawford

[Eff Pandas]

I think Mikey vs Manny would be a great fight and possibly more competitive than some people think. Plus it would build both guys profiles alot. Cause let's face it even at 40 there's no shame in losing to Manny

Manny's profile is about as built as it can get. It would boost Mikey's profile, but at this stage I think Mikey hurt his rep vs Errol & still needs to prove himself at 147 & I think Manny boosted his shot legend rep with the W over Keith & should be fighting Bud or Errol or a bigger name or higher ranked guy than Mikey.

I dont disagree that Spence or Bud would be better for his legacy but Mikey has a good following with the Mexican fanbase so I think it would be another big win for Manny's legacy even if not as big as 1 of the others. I do think Mikey lost some fans with his survival is all that matters performance against Spence but he still has a good fanbase and some people would expect him to beat Manny. I personally think Manny wins but it would be a good back and forth fight.

crawford wont be consider a top p4p ranked boxer when manny beats him. that's the pattern on here. just like how bradley became a bum for losing to manny only.

Stop lying. You and other manny fans denigrated Tim and said he didn’t deserve to be a top p4p boxer because his win over manny was a fifty.

Not until manny won the rematch and you clowns were desperately trying to elevate him above Floyd did you guys say Tim was worthy.

You clowns shot your own selves in the foot on this one.

That would be an amazing achievement and would have to be looked at from a historical standpoint. Has anyone ever unified titles over 40? Has anyone over 40 beat a top p4p ranked boxer?

Probably have, but possibly that win over a pfp ranked fighter by the 40 year old might be their only great win, pfp fighters can have off night.
But 40 year olds who've already achieved as much as pac probably havent. Pac s killed himself to get his resume and wins, so it's more unlikely that a guy who has done as much as pac can still get wins they're not supposed to.
I doubt anyone in this thread has looked at it like this.
Not even thread starter

I feel sorry for Crawford sometimes. He was probably sure he was a new Bradley and that he would get at least 1 Pacquiao fight at Top rank.

If Manny beats Crawford it'll be because "Crawford was exposed and dropped in his last fight". The excuses are already there.

That's not pac s problem, that's crawfords. Pac s still not supposed to beat TC as he's a young lion and no1 or 2 pfp

It would be a spectacular win for Pacquiao, but people would discredit it like they discredit Crawford now due to his resume

[paulf]

I'll say this: if he can somehow beat Crawford and Spence, he's surpassed Mayweather in my book.

Pacquiao does not really need to fight Crawford 'Anybody who is honest with themselves? Understands that it is a bad match up for him at this stage of his career 'Pacquiao should have afew more fights against Kell Brook, Mikey Garcia people like that'.
