NWBOXING 247's video: HOF Trainer Freddie Roach Confesses That Terence Crawford Is

Hall of Fame Boxing Trainer Freddie Roach Expresses His Thoughts On Undisputed Jr.Welterweight Champion Terence 'Bud' Crawford From Nebraska. https://www.badlefthook.com/2016/12/30/14129612/freddie-roach-terence-crawford-a-tough-fight-for-pacquiao-but-one-we Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach is crossing his fingers that eight division world champion Manny Pacquiao retires from boxing. The 38 year old veteran suffered a shock decision loss last month at the hands of huge underdog Jeff Horn at the Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane, Australia. There is a rematch clause, which Pacquiao is exercising, and the second fight is being targeted for a date in fall - likely back in Australia. On If Manny Pacquiao can compete with elite level opposition like Crawford while maintaining a full time work schedule outside of boxing: "Has Manny Pacquiao ever been focused on one job in his life? Before when he was really great he was a dancer and a singer and making movies and so forth. He loves activity, he likes doing something at all times, he doesn't like down time, and he doesn't know fighters at all because he doesn't watch TV. I had to tell him who GGG was...but he is getting older and it's probably gonna take affect on him, probably sooner than later and the thing is, can he do both? No, no for much longer, no..." “[Arum] wants that fight,” Roach said. “The thing is, I think he’s trying to make Crawford into a bigger star. If he beat Manny, it would help. But I think Manny can beat him. The thing is, I mean, he is a good fighter. I do respect him. He’s a very good boxer. He can move. He can run like hell if he wants to. But can he beat Manny? I don’t think so.” At the moment, Crawford believes the top man in the sport is WBA/WBO/IBF light heavyweight champion Andre Ward. "For me, the best at the moment is Andre Ward," Crawford said to ESPN Deportes Over the course of his career, Mayweather has generated 20 million views and $1.3 billion in revenue on pay-per-view, according to Showtime Sports head Stephen Espinoza. At one point, Mayweather bashed McGregor for fighting for such smaller stakes than the more lucrative bouts he and his The Money Team have negotiated. He pulled out a $100 million check from his backpack. McGregor, though, quickly responded with an allusion to the boxer's IRS troubles: "That's for the tax man." The location of the fight was moved this week when promoters reached an agreement with Ice Cube to move the championship of his Big3 basketball league from the T-Mobile Arena to the MGM Grand Garden Arena on that same date. The T-Mobile Arena, which opened last year, has a capacity of about 20,000. Mayweather and McGregor are launching a four-city tour this week to promote the fight. With a plus/minus connect percentage rating of plus-30 percent, Mayweather is at least twice as effective in the hit-and-don't-get-hit game as any of his contemporaries. Ward, who ranks fifth in Dan Rafael's March pound-for-pound rankings, is next best behind Mayweather with a plus-15 percent differential. After welterweight champ Manny Pacquiao's lackluster performance against Juan Manuel Marquez, Mayweather seemed to re-emerge as the popular favorite in the Manny-"Money" fantasy bout, should it ever take place. But how does this era's greatest pure boxer stack up statistically against the era's greatest brawler? Pacquiao recently lost to huge underdog Jeff Horn from Australia. During Floyd's prime, he's faced the likes of Diego Corrales, Ricky Hatton, Oscar Delahoya, Juan Marquez, Shane Mosley, Miguel Cotto, Canelo Alvarez, + More. Before retirement there was talks of possibly a fight between Mayweather & Danny Garcia, Keith Thurman, Errol Spence, Kell Brook, & Gennady Golovkin. Next Saturday, on August 19, we won’t only have the chance to see if the lion from Namibia, veteran Julius Indongo can become undisputed champion, but also, we could witness boxing history after the final bell. As for Bud, this win could set him apart from the rest of current the American Champions. Last time I recall that a World Champion from Omaha, Nebraska faced a hungry determined veteran lion, being also the huge favorite 10 to 1, he lost. Can you guess the name of the fighters?
