Terence Crawford vs Manny Pacquiao possible for June 5th

Bold. You type that with a Tecate in your hand?

 

If Pac smokes Bud (heh), you ready to say Pac's ATG standing is higher than Floyd's?

 

Wow.

Why a fight.

 

He's already above Floyd, imeo.

 

Pac isn't beating bud. Pac will still be dangerous early but by the mid rounds he will get outboxed and beat up by a maniac it will be brutal.

 

As strange as it may sound with their age in mind.
Pac may be catching Terence at the right time .

 

Fair. But since you see no real path to victory against the prime, bigger, younger, stronger and #1-3 P4P fighter in the world... I don't see how you don't rate Pac higher than Floyd if he pulls it off.

Pac would be fighting a monster.

 

Man, I wish it was Spence, who I'd favor Pac to beat. Crawford's the most difficult followed by Mikey.

 

This would be tremendous for boxing. Easily one of the best fights that can be made in the entire sport. Big money, legacy implications, ATG name recognition, it has it all. This is spectacular news and hopefully it actually happens.

Gun to my head I say Crawford wins, but if the odds are sweet enough I may bet on Manny. As of right now, I would say Manny has about a 40% chance of winning. Granted that number comes directly from between my cheeks, the ones I sit on.

 

If true, Pac is a lunatic for not having a tune-up first! 2 years off and almost 43 years old...

 

Are you basing that on him being the naturally smaller man and moving up through more weight classes? Or is it based more on his overall resume? Just curious.

 

Both. And the records he's set including most recently, oldest welterweight champion in history.

 

It would be nutty for sure, and almost certainly his final big time fight win or lose. Not counting a farewell showcase fight in Manila.

 

This is exactly why promoters will forever be able to sell us **** fights. Pacquiao is 42 and has been out of the ring 2 years what an absolute joke if Crawford is actually trying to get that fight.. Coward
