    you could tell manny wanted to carry ricky through a few more rounds...

    its crazy how the gameplan seemed to work perfectly...starting with the right hooks and setting it up for the left to end it.

          Let's not forget Oscar went 12 with Floyd and some thought he won, Hatton went 10 with him and won rounds.

          I just don't see any way for Floyd to win.
          LOL, ok.

          This isn't good for Manny. I think that you have p4p the most ***ed opinions on this entire board.

          It wasn't long ago that JMM was almost able to beat Manny. Is he so much better and quicker now that Mayweather doesn't stand a chance? You think Marquez is faster than Floyd.

          Floyd has A-class defensive skills, Hatton most certainly doesn't. You ppl who think Manny will just walk in and have too much for Floyd have absolutely no idea.

            Huh?

            I believe he's referring to a few more rounds of Guinness pints.

            If round 2 was bad, an ambulance and a stretcher in round 3 would have convinced him.

            He's lucky he was able two walk out on his own after a suspenseful 10 minutes laying on the canvas with hardly a response to the doctors and handlers.

            Then again, Ricky has a great sense of humor.

            Gotta love'em.

                Marquez is a smaller fighter. These bigger fighters are slow and lumbering compared to Pac. Hatton isn't slow, nor is Oscar but they were made to look like old men (and they're not).

                You watch rugby right? I don't watch rugby league, but look at how small Shane Williams is. Now you get a quick big guy like Tuqiri but he still can't lay a hand on Williams. Being small and quick gives you a natural advantage if you take your power with you.

                Floyd has A-class defensive skills, Hatton most certainly doesn't. You ppl who think Manny will just walk in and have too much for Floyd have absolutely no idea.
                Oscar doesn't have defensive skills?

                      Junior Witter then Amir Khan...then hang them up.
                      That should bag him another 10 million and the Khan fight would pull 60 thousand + at Wembley or Manchester.
                      I think Khan will beat him and carry the torch on further.
