Mayweather Boxing Channel

Jeff is indeed the only Mayweather who doesn't seem like a POS.

 

Because he is Freddo

 

Technically, he's Michael. Michael was the youngest brother, and so is Jeff.

Freddo was the middle brother, which in the Mayweather family, is Roger.

Which means that Floyd Sr. is Santino.

 

Prime pac is a sure bet against Crawford

 

I’m talking personality, not age.

 

It's hard to take most fighters assessments seriously, especially when it comes to mythical matchups. Unless they have a huge amount of respect for both fighters they usually pick the one they like better and say it would be a one sided blowout.

If you asked them who would win between Ali and Lewis they'd probably tell you Lewis wouldn't land punch let alone win a round. I would favor Ali as well but only jackass would claim it would be some one sided thrashing.

 

Yeah, I'm not ready to favor Craw against the 09 Pac.

 

What about the midway through 08 Pac?

 

I would pick him to win. But Crawford with his height and reach, good sense of distance, and counter punching has the attributes to capitalize on Manny's weaknesses.

If I were to place a bet on Pac for that fight, I'd be a bit nervous.

 

Will Mayweather's channel feature the expert prognostication of Adrien Broner?

 

Ya I mostly watch it to keep my YouTube closed caption feature on its toes.

 

Broner said he'd have beaten Duran at lightweight.

He is indeed an expert prognosticator. Afterall, what the Hell did Duran have on Gavin Rees?

 

Yeah true, that is an example of how stupidly overrated he is.

But to me, even stating he'd beat a peak Pacquiao is overrating him big style. Pacquiao is better and more proven, plain and simple.

 

I don't know if favoring Pryor head to head is overrating him. (although I can see the point). Saying it would be some kind of one sided blowout is definitely overrating him though. It's ridiculous.

 

Pryor fans jerking-off over one amazing fight where he windmill-punched and out-stamina'd against an almost retired guy who fought 90% of his fights at 126-135lb.

Honestly.

 

at Crawford having a chance against prime Pacquiao. Fuck, I'm not sure he's even a lock to beat "Senator" Pacquiao.

As I said before, I think you'll see Crawford isn't quite as good as advertised against Horn. I reckon it'll be a tougher fight than most expect.

If he destroys Horn with ease I'll admit I'm wrong, but as of right now I think it's kind of laughable that some people have him P4P #1.

I think he's good, very good, but I don't think he's even close to being P4P #1. I expect Spence to batter him.

 

Agreed, but you know - as per Mustard's post above - the guy was a fucking windmilling workrate machine. Yes he threw lots of wild scrubby punches, and in terms of pure physicality was a force to be reckoned with. But that's not how you beat Pacquiao. In fact that's how you get absolutely beaten senseless by Pacquiao, he eats up pressure fighters for breakfast.

 

Maybe. I just find it hard to picture Pryor getting waxed in easy fashion as well, even against Manny. I think it would be an interesting matchup. Both guys loved to fight, and both guys had great stamina along with the ability to throw power shots from unorthodox angles.

 

Crawford is gonna beat the ever living shit outta Horn.

We're in agreement that he loses to Spence.

 

Did Prime Duran fight at 140?

 

Pryor isn't getting beaten easily by any fighter in history south of 147.

 

the senator is terrified of crawford

 

For a title fight? No.

For some non-title fights during his lightweight reign? Yes.

The following fight was fought at 140. I have the full fight on DVD in better quality, but this is all Youtube has:

 

Hard to imagine any version of Pac in the past couple of years beating the current Crawford.

The last time Pac looked close to vintage sharp was in the first Bradley fight, which he won 9-3. That Pac likely outpoints Crawford.

 

I rate Crawford highly, I've put my neck on the line and picked him to beat Spence, and I rate Spence very highly too.

There is definitely a thing on here though where we forget just how good Pacquiao was circa 2007-09. The guy was incredible. Nobody is beating that guy down outside of a freak like Hearns or Leonard

 

Floyd is Connie

 

In England, Freddo is a chocolate bar with a cartoon frog on the wrapper. It just went down from 30p to 25p, which is really great.

 

I agree. Horn is a complete scrub.

 

Horn is rubbish.

 

Word and that’s only because in addition to talent they were each much bigger than Pacquiao
