    Will it actually happen? I doubt Manny and Bob really like each other, plus the Crawford fight doesn't make much sense for Manny.

    What are your thoughts, boyz?

    50/50 fight. All depends on Manny looking his age or not. I put a draw.

    Crawford wins easy at this stage of Pac's career.

    I'll be shocked if this fight comes off, if it does Crawford by UD or late TKO.

    IMO, this will be Pacquiao's version of Hopkins-Kovalev, albeit more tightly contested over the first few. Old guy a step behind, unable to deal effectively with the range and youthful energy of a younger, fresher opponent.

    So Bob was trying to protect Pac 4 years ago but thinks it’s a fair fight now? Lols.

    I think Pac could take it. He has very underrated counterpunching skills.

    Head says Crawford, heart says Pac. Love to see it.

    Tiny ass Gambia had Crawford on jelly legs. No name Kavaliauskus was ripping Crawford with hard flush shots and dropped him.

    60-40 in favor of Crawford due to Pac's age.

    For me it is a 50/50 fight. I think there will be a close rounds. If pacquiao will not be robbed he will win

    Crawford a solid favorite for me. Pac still looked decent against Thurman which is a legit win but let's remember hadn't looked good prior to that and he still had plenty of success in that fight.

    I would like to see this fight but for how long did Arum try set up a big fight in the Middle East only to never come to fruition. I doubt it happens

    Pac is too old. He can fight well for 6 rounds and his body starts to break down. Look at the last few rounds of the Thurman fight. Pac was retreating and his body couldn't keep up.

    Crawford by late TKO.
