Oscar De La Hoya<\/a> has shared his verdict for how a fight between Manny Pacquiao<\/a> and Terence Crawford<\/a> in their prime would have gone.<\/p>\n

Pacquiao is boxing\u2019s only eight-division world champion, having campaigned from flyweight all the way up to super-welterweight, defeating a number of fellow greats along the way, including Juan Manuel Marquez, Miguel Cotto, Tim Bradley, and De La Hoya himself.<\/p>\n

He was also involved in the sport\u2019s highest grossing ever fight when he met Floyd Mayweather in May 2015, and after four years out he is set to make a remarkable return at the age of 46 this weekend when he challenges Mario Barrios for his WBC welterweight title.<\/a><\/p>\n

Crawford\u2019s accolades are also just as impressive, becoming a four-weight world champion from lightweight to super-welterweight, along with claiming undisputed status at both 140lbs and 147lbs after beating fighters such as Errol Spence.<\/p>\n

Last time out, he defeated Israil Madrimov to win the WBA super-welterweight title, and will now make an ambitious jump up two divisions to take on fellow pound-for-pound star and undisputed super-middleweight champion Canelo Alvarez<\/a> in September.<\/p>\n

Having shared the ring with Pacquiao and studied Crawford\u2019s career for many years, there aren\u2019t many with more of an expert opinion than De La Hoya on how a fight between the two men would have gone in their prime, and he gave a confident answer to Mail Sport.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cAt their prime, Pacquiao knockout.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pacquiao will be hoping to roll back the years when he takes on Barrios this weekend, and De La Hoya has shared his verdict for how that bout will go.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Oscar De La Hoya has shared his verdict for how a fight between Manny Pacquiao and Terence Crawford…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":966,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[447],"tags":[703,49,48,82],"class_list":["post-965","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-boxing","tag-boxing","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/965","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=965"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/965\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/966"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=965"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=965"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=965"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
