    I'm convinced you did 5 minutes of research on boxrec before attempting to make this weak as **** absent of any context argument. Your example of Ricky hatton dropping beer gut weight and comparing that to delahoya fighting at 147 for the first time in years is laughable. I won't even address the cowardly injured shoulder conspiracy and how it completely contradicts your final point that it's on the fighter to make sure they're prepared

    What makes you think the shoulder injury was fake?

    This is a difficult question because Manny has beaten so many great opponents over the years. Because of his age and the fact that Crawford has been at the top of the PFP list (top couple slots if not the first) and because of the size Pac is giving up, if he beats Crawford decisively, this could go down as his greatest victory.

    Crawford is a legit PFP guy, his resume at 147 isn’t great but he’s still prime and arguably the best WW on the planet. I will be rooting for the old guy because I’m old but I would expect Crawford to be an overwhelming betting favorite going into this fight. Hats off to Manny if he takes this fight instead of fighting MMA guys or non professionals like other big names have done. Crawford is legit and very dangerous.

    I think Crawford will be a 3-1 favorite. Don't think it's gonna be ultra wide. GrandPac ain't chopped liver yet. Or he could be with the 2 year layoff.

    No way that this fight happens. Crawford was supposed to have had his opponent named two weeks ago and a fight of this magnitude wouldn't be set less than two months away in June. Typical smoke and mirrors from Bob Arum, name drop a big name and then underwhelm.
