BY that I mean Floyd just downplays Manny and talks more about himself as if Manny doesnt matter.He should actually concentrate on his hitlist.
On another note
Manny wont make as much money fighting anyone apart from Floyd.Manny wont fight Cotto at 140,Cotto wont take the fight.This is Cotto's last fight with Arum so Arum will try to cash in.Cotto knows he will be self promoting and he can take a **** fight now (although I think Judah will persue Cotto if he wins the IBF belt)The fight with Judah will give Cotto some good money and it will not be difficult to sell since the two have some history.SO in reality Manny doesnt have as much leverage in negotiating with Cotto because Arum has interests in both.
I dont really think Manny will beat Cotto because Cotto is a survivor.When the going gets tough he knows how to turn things around.Can Manny take Cotto's body punch?Cotto's jab is also underestimated so if Cotto defeats Manny what becomes of Manny?Comment

what do you expect, he keeps on taking these **** mismatch fights then a real competition fight, your obviously going to continuously get ****ted onComment

The whole thing was meant to be about Marquez -Mayweather.Unfortunately Manny was mentioned.Mayweather then said he didnt need Manny.Then to show that Manny doesnt have as much leveraged as he thinks I brought in Cotto because Arum and Roach have mentioned Cotto a lot.It's a triangleComment

There goes Floyd again thinking that the only thing that matters in the sport is to remain undefeated. he thinks it is the ultimate scale of greatness! Wrong!!
He is very defensive when it comes to Manny. Manny has stole his spotlight. He tries to make it seem like Manny does not matter.
You know what this tells me? He wants no part of little Manny. I never thought I'd see the day that he would play down Manny just so he could avoid him. He has been playing down Shane and Cotto as of late, now Manny.Comment

If Floyd down-plays needing Manny, then that means they need to come to him. When you go to a fighter for a fight that puts the chips in his favor. In other words, it's in Floyd's favor (to make it clear to you).
Same reason why Freddie Roach said: we don't need Mayweather but if he wants a fight, tell him to come talk to us...but we'll be making the rules. Freddie mentioned the reason being that Floyd wants most of the money so basically if you call him out and crawl to him, you are under his negotiations and he gets the better of the deal.
Floyd is just doing the same.
If they both say they don't need each other, in the end, when boxing demands this fight and if they do come together, it is more likely for them to meet in the middle, 50/50, instead of one fighter getting a larger percentage of the purse and making all the demands.
Here is another example: I don't need *****. I've had plenty of it for a long time. But ***** needs me; they need my **** because I deliver.Last edited by Benny Leonard; 05-19-2009, 05:22 PM.Comment
