    Crawford has a fine chin. When has he been dropped? Crawford would beat pac worse than spence would because he's a crazy sob who would take pleasure in hurting pac and wouldn't take it easy on him. He's also faster than Spence and has better defense. Id actually put more money on crawford against pac than i would Spence.

    so they should but they have to prove it dont they. Spence hasnt even beat porter yet. Porter is a top 6 welterweight.

    pac would crucify garcia.

    Damn right on the ****ing money 7 months ago. This deserves a Michael Jordan shrugging his shoulders jogging back down the court after doing something else amazing gif. Take a bow @CST80 :deal:

    Gamboa is fast as **** tho. And Crawford has yet to be knocked down. His chin is fine.
    A good shot will hurt him, but that applies to pretty much everyone at 147.

    You created this thread before Thurman/Jozesito fight, correct? In that case, good call, sir.

    In case you hadn't noticed this is boxing you will get stunned. Oscar de la hoya got dropped when he was at 130 but how was his chin at 147? I rest my case. Crawford getting stunned means nothing especially against a guy like gamboa who has fast hands and can hit you with punches you dont see. His chin is fine.

    I give pac a chance at Spence. I dont rate him highly. But Pac would have to be at a good condition, and not fade, physically, like he did against Thurman. He also has to be mentally prepared to go to war if he has to. However, I have a hard time seeing him beat Crawford. I think Pac has to really hurt Crawford or stop him; take full advantage of an opening.
