    have to agree that the Crawford hype is a little too much right now.....and as far as calling him a "future cash cow"....man I dunno....that's a bold statement....I mean sure he can sell out in Nebraska or whatever......but do you really think this guy is going to captivate the worldwide audience?

    Crawford has put a pretty strong list of wins together. No one great win but he has put a lot of good to semi good wins together.

    In no order he's beaten in the past couple years

    Burns- Went on the road and took the title from Burns. Most felt Burns should have lost the prior fight to Beltran and has lost a couple fights since Crawford so the win isn't a good as it would have been a couple years prior but still a good win.

    Gamboa- Crawford caught Gamboa after being off over a year and at a weight above his best but Gamboa was undefeated and a pfp talent. Another good win.

    Beltran- Was rated as one of the best lightweights when Crawford dominated him.

    Dulorme and Jean were both solid fighters and Crawford stopped both of them.

    Prescott and Klimov also decent to solid fighters and Craword beat them both and was at a point when Crawford would have been considered just a prospect.

    Crawford's a good fighter and has proved it against good competiton but I do think he's getting a bit overhyped at the moment and I don't think he beats Pacquaio at all, even one who will be 37 when he fights next.

    It makes sense Top Rank wants to help build Crawford's name off the back of Pacquaio. I just think Pacquaio still has enough left to beat Crawford.

    I'd be surprised if Pac retires after April. I think I'd give it a bit more time if I was Arum. Let Pac age even more while Crawford keeps adding experience. If it happens in April I wouldn't complain, its a good fight now.

    Interesting fight. At this point in time I would pick Crawford but who knows? If Pac fought either Khan or Crawford, I would probably buy the fight.

    Crawford has a bad chin. A featherweight hurt him BAD..PAC stops him.

    PAC was done long before the Floyd fight. Everything has faded -- his power, speed, timing, strength, stamina, plus the skills were never there.
