What if Pacquiao fought Crawford instead of Horn?

[South Champion]

In summer of 2017, Pacquiao went to Australia to fight Horn. When he lost the controversial decision, I remember Crawford saying, "They didn't let Pacquiao fight me, and he went and lost the title in Australia."

Crawford made his debut at 147 a year later against Horn.

If Crawford had made his debut at 147 in 2017 against a 38 year old Pacquiao, how would the fight have played out?

How would Crawford's career have gone if he beat Pacquiao in 2017, as opposed to 2021?

Crawford might have stopped him. It’s a very, very tough fight for a past prime Pac.

If Pac can beat Crawford in his 40’s I think he’s right in that GOAT discussion with Robinson, Armstrong, Ali etc.

If the fight happen i think crawford is not undefeated now.

Craeford would have stopped him then and he'll stop him now

Craeford would have stopped him then and he'll stop him now

You think a 42 year old Pacquiao will come back from a 2 year lay off and stop Crawford?
