He will have "shutdown an old man who had been retired and came back to cash in once more."
The same old man who beaten the sh#t out of Alvarado and knockout Pacquiao unconscious,that old man?
That is a long time ago in boxer years.

Crawford would be all wrong for even a younger Marquez.

so he was 39 last time with pac and 40 with alvarado and now he is 42, turning 43 in august.
in your 40's in pro sports, a year is not physically or mentally the same as in your 20's or 30's.
you can't just say "so what if he's 43 next fight". in the lighter weights, that is a dinosaur.

Bud vs JMM? You can't be serious. One sided washing. JMM is far too old to get in there with this kid. It will take the very, very best at 147 to beat Crawford. Not sure they can beat him either.

Provo is next for Bud. He will box his face off. Then maybe we get a super fight with Garcia, Thurman, Porter, Brook, Spence. One of those guys. Not holding my breath on Pac-Bud.

How old is Marquez?

He must be getting close to 45 now.

Postol should be next, but because of Arum, he won't be.

According to JMM, Crawford is not even on his radar. He wants Cotto if he could get him at 147. Still a tall order for him. I hope he retires.

Marquez hasn't fought for nearly two years and he's 42 years old.

Crawford should fight Pacquiao regardless if Manny loses or wins against Bradley.
That's the only way he will get good exposure and establish himself as a top ticket seller.
