I was thinking the same thing...Gamboa rocked Tcraw.... Gamboa speed was an issue for Crawford...but errybody on they Crawford slumps :deadmanny:


:wtf:


If Crawford beats Manny its going be on some :mj::stylin: boring shyt
The fact that I don't think it would be an entertaining fight is my main reason for not being all in with a Manny/Crawford fight.

I see more opportunities for being entertained/excitement with almost every other name that has been mentioned as a possible opponent for Manny.

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:
pacquaios own team is having doubts about whether he can beat crawford lmao

i respect if you think pacquaio is gonna win, but dont act like picking crawford over pacquaio is fueled by hatred.

its not, theres a very good chance that pacquaio gets his ass whipped

:what: that's your reasoning for not wanting to see it? like who tf thought May-Pac was going to be FOTY material? :camby: biggest fight in history and they cant sell a rematch for a 3rd of what it cost the first time. Pac-Craw would at least be somewhat more entertaining. :snoop:

I didn't want to see Mayweather/Pacquiao either because I knew exactly how the fight would go. And being more entertaining than May/Pac isn't some monumental achievement.

this is true, however, I was saying worse case scenario it would be mildly more entertaining, but I expect it to be entertaining regardless. I see both men getting hurt in that fight.

Granados on how a Crawford/Imam fight would play play out



And his opinion holds merit



He's using a triangle theory though...and everybody always say those dont hold weight. If it holds weight, then good, we can use them in future debates.

Amir Imam doesn't beat Crawford, but he makes for a better name matchup over John Molina to me. I've seen John Molina look helpless too many times against more technically skilled Boxers...even against a passed his prime Humberto Soto...and needed a hail Mary to beat Mickey Bey who was easily beating him...so I have no doubt Crawford is gonna crush him too.:manny:


Tired of seeing retreads though. Just would like to see a fresh face get a shot at the Champion sometimes:yeshrug:

Manny/Crawford is 60/40 Manny

@synistr A) Nice to see you back in the ring breh. B) If Manny caught T-Craw like Gamboa did, Crawford wouldn't end the fight vertical. You say fast fighters trouble other fast fighters, well Manny is just as quick/fast as Crawford with a more accurate or 'shocking' punch.

If Crawford works behind the jab and doesn't get caught up in his boxers ego, he can and would beat Manny though.
