    You know, people **** all over Mayweather for the McGregor fight, and I get that.... but in all honesty, if Pac fights Alvarado, that fight is just as bad if not worse than the Mayweather vs McG fight. Pac vs Alvarado is one of the worst mainstream fights scheduled in the last 10 years or so, imo. I am sure it would make my top 10 worst fights of the last decade.

    Best case scenario is it turns out to be the lame joke it is, and Alvarado goes out with a whimper by getting overrun in 4 or 5 (if that... depends on Pacs approach here and if he wants to box a bit or go for the kill early). Worst case scenario, Alvarado somehow turns back the clock, has an epic training camp, and actually is intent to go in and give it a go, and he gets seriously mauled in a fight he should have never been put in.

    Embarrassing matchup.

    However, if by chance its not Alvarado, and its actually a halfway legitimate opponent, then having Crawford and Pac on the same ppv card is actually pretty cool.

    I’d watch a pac va matthysse fight
    Not a lot of interest in much else
    Anyone higher up in the rankings will be a bit of a mismatch and pac would prob be beaten up
    Anyone much lower will be a Dull affair with pac just coasting his way to a one sided UD

    fans arent gonna like the alvarado fight. i personally dont care about that fight i would watch but im not excited for that but for pacs best interest its prolly smart for him to go that route.

    the other name were hearing is lucas mattysse and pacs current state that fight could get ugly. lucas is violent puncher. im scared for pac im not sure if a legend like him should risk it at his old age it greaters the chances of his chin failing him by a hard shot from lucas.

    maybe pac should think about getting some new names. can he get paulie outta retirement or maybe zab judah.

    Why do you think that. He is well spoken. And punches out PAC who is the real POS , washed up cheater who was never more than a juiced up Swarmer.

    I feel that Alvarado would go the distance. Pac is old and worn down, but Alvarado seems to have got some fire back.
    Pac would still beat him up regardless, but i think Alvarado has enough in him to make it a bit though and go the full 12.

    I was going to suggest Paulie. He's had some war of words with Pacquiao in the past and he was in the headlines for sparring with McGregor.

    Ok you are being ridiculous man.

    Alvarado is currently ranked as the #49 Welterweight in the world. He isn't very good.

    Conor McGregor never fought a professional boxing match in his life.

    Totally fair comparison.

    Bob Arum ain't getting a dime outta me. I will wait for the replay. All these good fights being shown for free and he is trying to dig in peoples pockets for old ass Pac and not ready for prime pay per view Crawford. Not this time. Maybe when Crawford gets to point where he fights Spence for all the marbles or even a decent buildup fight with Thurman but not Horn.

    i think the is more to get crawford exposure to the main stream, by him beating horn. itll show that crawford beat the guy, that beat pacquaio and take him closer to superstardom.

    TO BE PERFECTLY CLEAR...

    Pacquiao has EARNED the right to fight ANYONE he wants. I mean, he has earned this right solely on his age and being only about 25% invested in boxing right now even if you don't factor in his career.

    LOL he got his ass beat by Pac.
    Did you ever see the video he made calling out Pac before the fight was signed?
    He then tried to mock Mayweather with a lame call out after he got the gift against Pac.
    He & his team disrespected Freddie Roach, Horn even encouraged his POS brother to try and start a fight with Roach who everybody knows has Parkinson's.
    Horn is already saying crap like once he beats Crawford he wants Canelo, dude is completely deluded.
    He has called out Spence & Thurman but then fights some bum Cocoran. He also tried to claim he was going to get Teddy Atlas banned from ever returning to Australia just for telling the truth.
    His whole promotional team Duco are arrogant clowns who were also disrespecting Anthony Joshua. It doesn't matter though because after April both Horn & Parker will be violently KO'd and Duco can crawl back down their rat hole.

    Why do you keep lieing when you have been proven wrong on almost everything you just said. Just for laughs how about you try prove Horn or his brother tried to start a fight with Roach?Last time you tried altering a quote from the book as your only proof but as I had read the book I was able to prove yet again you were full of **** and out of desperation you make **** up to suit your narrative.
