    Mayweather Jr. picks Manny. Márquez picks Crawford. Jones is on the fence but says this is a dangerous retirement bout for Pac.

    Who do you have, if Bob keeps the swansong in-house rather than chase after Khan? (or Márquez V) :think

    Manny brutally KO's Beltran, Jean, Gamboa, Sanabria, Klimov, Dulorme, Burns and Prescott. Manny destroys Crawford at this point.

    Main page. He says that he made it look easy with Pac but that Crawford isn't on his level, and that Gamboa's speed and power bothered him and this portents badly against Pac.

    Crawford puts this shot-to-pieces, shopworn version of Pac to sleep. His style plays into Crawford's hands.

    Question: does Crawford go southpaw? :think

    Hell no! :lol:

    Pacquiao dissects southpaws, as proven against Morales when he changed southpaw and he put on a damn clinic against Diaz (Even though Diaz is not as good as Crawford)

    Morales had never done that. Crawford specializes in doing it.

    And when Morales went southpaw, Pacquiao almost knocked him out.

    Crawford should stay right handed and keep landing those right hands on Pacquiao's schnozz.

    Pac has never been able to deal with a great right hand. Never.

    He did it in the 12th of their first fight. Like abuffy said.

    Again: that wasn't something Morales ever did, outside that one moment on a lark.

    Crawford excels at switch-hitting, and is as effective in either stance.

    Floyd Mayweather said he made it look easy, but that it WON'T be easy. I don't think Pacquiao is as foregone as many think. Pacquiao still hits harder, hits faster, and has A LOT more experience.

    I'm on the fence still with this one. Pac from a few years ago would do a number on Crawford. But Crawford's pretty good. He seems to be improving while Pac seems to be declining. But which one is happening faster than the other? :think

    I personally think it's very close to that magical thin line where it's close to going either way. Anything close would, I assume, work in Crawford's favor at this juncture, barring any plans unbeknownst to be that are possibly in play for a Pac-Floyd rematch next September.

    I tend to think a fight between the two would be competitive enough that having greater clarity on my assumptions above would be advantageous towards making a better informed pick.
