Neither of which Pacquiao will ever fight. And McGregor just knocked out. So basically there is no fight out there that is worth Pacquiao’s time.
    I’m not a Pacquiao fan. I’m a fan of making sense.

    Pacquiao has fought opponents better than Crawford.

    How is Crawford so good? He’s fought no one to prove that. What are his latest big wins? Two guys who used to be considered good and were no longer top 10 when he fought them, Khan and Brook.

    The title of “best” is earned by fighting the best. Crawford hasn’t fought the best of his division since like Postol.

    I will not give Crawford such praise.

    So yeah, Pacquiao has fought better fighters. Mayweather, MAB, Morales, Marquez, Bradley, Cotto, Hatton, Thurman are all better fighters than Crawford because they all have better wins than him.

    I’ll give Crawford the distinction of being, as a win, at the level of Jessie Vargas/Joshua Clottey. Which is not bad, actually a good win. But I wouldn’t list Crawford among the best. Sorry, 33 years old and has fought next to nothing in his career out of Postol and Gamboa. His biggest accomplishment so far has been to be regarded as a top 3 P4P fighter based on how he looks like against subpar opponents and guys who used to be good. Pacquiao put in his work with real wins and earned his #1 P4P spot back then, by fighting actual top guys regarded as good fighters by everyone.

      I just don’t see that big money now a days being made. I think it’s a winnable fight for pac but I prefer for him to retire. He don’t need the damn money.

          Bob won’t even give you $10k to fight Crawford. Crawford might even ask a little tuition fee from you to let you spar with him

                      When did Crawford become better than Morales and Barrera?
