Prime Pacquiao, Crawford, Mayweather @ 147

Tonight will tell me more... if Bud gets blown out (I expect him to do well) againts Canelo, Ill change my opinion, but right now I think...

Pac beats Mayweather
Mayweather beats Bud
Bud beats Pac

Truth is though I could see each fighter going undefeated, or going 0-2. I thinm they are very close fights all around.


Maybe Im overrating Crawford but we'll see.

 

You say that as if Bud and Floyd are similar fighters. Not sure whats so crazy that Pac could beat Floyd but not Bud. Bud has the kind of accuracy with power that can genuinely cause problems for Pac in a much different way than Floyd can. Crawford would also spend more time engaging, less time circling out, ect. I think eventually Bud would start catching Pac with heavy sharp counters as hes coming in, and I question Pacs ability to take too many of them as the fight goes late.

I dont really care much about the maypac fight. Sorry, thats what happens when you fight someone years past their prime. The Pac he fought wasnt the truly special fighter he was 6 years, one helacious fight and one stone cold KO earlier. Floyd was also past prime, but not as much as Pac imo. So their fights pretty meaningless, imo.

Sure, Pac could beat Bud. I could see that happening, as I said. But the idea that Bud couldnt also beat Pac is a bit crazy to me. Think you might be underrating Crawford a little bit.

And Floyd vs Crawford isnt even close? Ya idk man you def just rate Floyd a lot higher than I do. Prime Floyd dropped multiple rounds to Judah while also getting dropped. He had a semi competetive fight with Cotto where plenty of people had him losing 3 to 4 rounds. The idea a bigger, prime Crawford wouldnt even be close with Floyd seems a bit rose tinted glasses to me but to each their own.

 

If Canelo steamrolls Bud Ill take back my picks and admit I overrated Bud. But I think Craw should do aight.
