    Crawford damn near shut postol out. Crawford beat the **** outta horn a guy who beat up and defeated pac.

    JMM might very well be the best counterpunchering combination thrower in boxing history. Plus stylistic nightmare.

    When did Pac go life and death with Bradley? He won 10-2 the first time and washed him in the rematches.

    A loss is never good for legacy unless you get robbed.

    But he didn't press for the KO. And Postol happened to be the most skilled guy on his resume. Pac is better than Postol in every way. Pac will hurt/drop Crawford. It's inevitable. We'll see how Crawford reacts.

    Oh wait, Crawford don't want the work.

    :deal:

    You dont even believe that lmfao! The best thing that happened to pac was the Crawford fight falling through. A severe career ending beating was in store for pac. He better stick to Mikey because either Spence or Crawford beat him up and end his career.

    The JMM KO was supposed to be career ending.

    :-*

    You underestimate Pac. Crawford was smart enough not to and decided not to sign the contract.

    I've been saying retire since before the Thurman fight. Hate to see him go down the route of many greats before him. He's made a mint from boxing, however if he is desperate for money I hope he gets one last big pay day then hangs 'em up. If he is financially set, he should focus on being a politician, celebrity basketball player and karaoke.

    Almost 43 y/o, won his first world title a staggering 23 years ago, has been involved in more wars than an army, is the oldest welterweight champion in history which is a division where's he's often facing opponents who are way heavier, longer and obviously younger than him, and he's coming off a two year layoff. Sound like the right time to call it a day to me.

    JMM was always had Pac's number, a bit like Norton with Ali.

    Pac soundly defeated Timmy THREE times, regardless of what the judges saw.

    Both Spence and Crawford would have had difficulties with Cotto and Marg. Pac didn't.

    Different levels.

    He needs a huge payout as he is apparently gracious with his money.

    This one will probably happen, Al Haymon will make sure of it.

    Crawford fight was ready, Pac signed. Money just didn't come through, damm UAE so unreliable with these stuff. Happened multiple times with Khan.

    I favour Spence in this fight. Pac takes some early rounds but doesn't have the stamina to last 12 and gets a beating latter half of the fight due to having no stamina to fight back.

    Crawford and Spence beat the **** outta that mummy Margo, it would be funny to watch. Crawford destroyed Horn Pac didn't. Both of these guys would give Pac hell at any time in his career.

    Pac had Horn out on his feet and looking like a car crash survivor after the fight. Could have easily been waved off for a knockout victory. Pac just has to kill someone to get a KO these days.

    Crawford fought a version of Horn coming off of almost getting KO'd by Pac and not being able to make 147 without draining himself. That's why he fought his next two fights at 160.
