Manny beats Kell all day every day.

I don't see Freddie ever co-signing a Manny/Crawford fight because of the difficulty Crawford's style presents.

Don't see Manny being able to get down to Loma's weight and I don't think Loma stands a chance against Manny at a higher weight.

I would be hyped as hell for a Manny bout against Swift or Thurman but I won't hold my breath waiting for Arum and Haymon to actually work out a deal.

I think Canelo knows the position he has with GBP and while he'll listen to Oscar's counsel to a point, all decisions are Canelo's.
Oscar was not a fan of the Lara or Trout fights yet we still got them because Canelo wanted those fights.
Oscar aint calling no shots with Ginger.

Richard is the reason those fights happened.

this is the BIGGEST fight for him right now and I think very winnable. I'd definitely favor Manny over Canelo before I would over Crawford, due to the styles. Manny just has too much speed for Canelo. It would be like Canelo vs a much better Khan. there is always the chance tho that Manny gets :deadmanny:. I think it would be a very entertaining and close fight.

I'd like to see Manny vs AB, then Canelo, then Crawford to close out his career, those are nothing but big fights.

yeah, not saying he cant win, but no way I ever pick Kell over Manny. the style matchup favors Manny. I would love to see it though because Kell is very deserving of that fight. how he gonna unify though? ESj aint steppin aside.

yep, khan did very good(for a pillow punching small chinny ww) vs nelo imo but I think everyone falls victim of a kd or ko in the mid to later rounds due to to size difference.

plus nelo knows how to set up his kos to so he don't always have to be the fastest...just have the right timing.

Crawford beats Pacman ? :mjlol:

Crawford is too slow to deal with Pac. Pac would be in his grills all night and he'd be eating those short right hooks and have no answer for them. Only thing Crawford got over Pacman is the length. That's it.

Pac doesn't get credit for his good chin and his confusing defense either.

Say what y all want about Uncle Bob, but #BoxingMatters to him and he's actually looking for good fighters for Pac. :ohhh::yeshrug:
