Undefeated WBO lightweight champ may face Pacquiao

Top Rank chief Bob Arum is grooming, undefeated WBO lightweight champion Terence Crawford as a potential opponent of Filipino boxing icon Manny Pacquiao
The American defeated the previously unscathed Yuriorkis Gamboa of Cuba over the weekend to retain his title. The impressive win put Crawford (24-0, with 17 knockouts) on the road to big time boxing. Arum predicted that in a year’s time Crawford may end up in a possible big fight with Pacquiao.

The Filipino currently holds the WBO welterweight title. In his next fight in November he could slide back to junior welterweight, making a future fight with Crawford a great possibility.
