"He's still fast and strong. And he will become even stronger and faster as training progresses. It's a good matchup and we have to prepare hard for this. The Senator must be in optimum form against Crawford." — Nonoy Neri (assistant trainer and chef to Pac)
So Pac is in training. And dude mentions Crawford only. Hmmm. Don't think they're gonna get the money for this. Fury-Joshua is having an insanely difficult time being made and Saudi Arabia is the frontrunner for the fight location.
More signs this fight could be coming: Mikey Garcia has indicated that he's moved on from a Pac fight Shawn Porter is seemingly no longer in the running Ryan Garcia is set to fight Fortuna
The fight will be announced next week probably, it was on the Philippines news earlier, and they mentioned that the deal close to be finalized.
Can you imagine being Bud if this was held in Manila? Having to balance the biggest fight of your career against what could be a still dangerous legend versus what happens if you hurt a national hero in a city with a kidnapping problem?
Getting Bud to fight in Manila would be like getting Floyd to fight outside of Vegas. Except when he's beating up little teenage Japanese kick boxers
Crawford destroys Pac now, Pac should be taking some easy cash out fights. By taking this fight, it shows Pac is a true legend of the sport with no fear.
