I wouldn't be surprised if Arum makes this fight in the near future.

Who would win? I think Pacquiao is well past his prime and Crawford would now stop him.

Crawford, pretty comfortably. Maybe even by stoppage.

Guys What is going on with you? I know Crawford is the next big thing but Come on, Manny at 140 lb is going to be too much for him at this stage of his career. Crawford is not even in his prime yet. Manny will UD him, Maybe it will be a bit close. But I really dont see Crawford winning.

Interesting one...

Will Manny even fight again ? What is the motivation ? I know Roach said he could do 140 easily and a win for Crawford would make him a huge star.

I would rather see Crawford v Matthysse though that shows how good Crawford is at 140

Arum may want a big name opponent like Pacquiao for Crawford.

It's a good fight, but I believe Pacquiao would take this fight by decision. Crawford is a good defensive fighter, but I think he'd give Paqcuiao the opportunities to land combinations unlike Floyd allowed him to do. Pacquiao is a much bigger, stronger and defensively responsible version of Gamboa, Crawford would struggle to keep up with Pacquiao IMO. Would be a great fight to watch though and I would def. be pulling for Crawford.

Crawford had some problems with Gamboa before figuring him out.

Pac is as fast or faster, is bigger, and hits much, much harder.

If I am handling Terrance, it is not a fight I make even now with Manny's so-called decline.

By the time Pacquiao recovers from his injury, he will probably be degraded far enough that Crawford would have a good chance. It is a fairly good business move for Arum, and could set-up Crawford as Arum's cash cow for many years if he wins.

CRAWFORD,KO,8

Pacquiao aint beating any top notch fighters. Stick a fork in him.
