Can Manny's offensive leaps be enough to stop Crawford's Dog-Return-firepower?

[Roadblock]

Other than the Marquez KO and 4th fight, I’ve never seen Manny wobbled/rocked or on the retreat. I’ve seen him get hit but then back up, adjust, and apply effective defense to gather himself. But he’s not been wobbled or “in trouble” type of hurt. He has incredibly underrated defense. He blocked several of Floyd’s little pot shots in that fight.

Dropped by a jab, running and holding like a leech and saved by the referee, Manny was gone.

Hussein knocked him down with a jab. Singsurat and Torrecampo both knocked him out before Marquez. This was before his head magically grew though.

50 -50 fight

Crawford is far bigger, stronger, younger.

On the other hand, Pacquiao is at least skilled like Crawford ( if not even more) and experienced on top level.

Crawford at this stage of Pac career is just to much he will be 42 by the time a fight is possible.

Thurman aside from the flash KD started dominating Pac as the fight went on while Pac was gassed badly.

Crawford will just wear him down and stop him in the late rounds.

Lmao dude that was before he even fought in the US, lmao.
Not relevant to these current times at all.


Oh by the way what do you think about Floyd beating his wife in front of his children?

Would you beat a woman in front of her children?

Oh so most of his loses dont count lol, you people just tell any BS story and leave out most of the relative information, no wonder Manny fans are so delusional with very selective memories.

I don’t agree that manny has the highest ring iq at ww. He clearly has the most experience, but he doesn’t make adjustments well or that often. Horn came forward and stopped manny’s movement, Floyd countered and stopped manny’s movement, Thurman in the rounds he did win came forward and stopped manny’s movement. Because his arms are short and he’s short if you can dictate range and tempo you have a shot at winning. This is easier said than done though as manny is elite in the movement dept.

101% yes. The only advantage of crawford is size and youth.

Well call for the fight, all I see is Manny fanboys saying TC isnt worth lol, he going to fck Manny up big time but the fight wont happen Mannys team knows TC is way to much.

If Pacquiao beats Crawford at 42, the achievement would probably surpass Foreman winning the WBA title at 45 and Hopkins fighting at top level until 50.

I would not bet on it, though.
