    That’s not even close to robbery compared to Manny vs JMM or Canelo vs Lara/Trout.

      True or false? Mosley could have fought Floyd in 2005 or 2006, but was saying something about getting a tooth fixed?

      True or false? Many Pacquiao, with a $50 million dollar gurantee, 50/50 purse split, agreed to, refused to sign the contract because he didn't want to be subjected to random blood testing 21 days out from the fight?

      You could argue Paul Williams, I guess, but what big welterweight fights did Paul get? Did Manny fight him?

      Floyd's resume is deeper than Manny's. He fought better versions of Mosley, Hatton, De la Hoya and you could argue Cotto. Dominated Marquez and fought a host of other champions from 130-154, including Canelo.
      false, Floyd wanted no part of Margo and wanted out of that situation to avoid him, it’s evident to everyone. Everyone saw the fear in Floyd when Margo stepped up to him as it’s all over YouTube

      Floyd didn’t fight Hatton at his best weight, manny did

      Floyd fought Oscar after a lay off and manny was a cherry pick for Oscar who was going 2 weight classes higher

      cotto was 146 prior to manny fight in his previous fight and said himself he was at his best for manny

      don’t talk about what Floyd did to zombie canelo pls

      pls stop re writing history

      Floyd avoided many in his career or made them fight at a disadvantage

        Couple points

        1) about losses manny would be greater than he is had he won those fights instead.

        notably the Marquez quadrilogy and Floyd fight.

        it would have been huge had manny beat Floyd

        2) Floyd has a victory over a top 30 atg, and he did it in stunning fashion by schooling manny.

        manny hasn’t beat anyone that great

        3) manny currently has the greater exclusive opponents

        Barrera Morales [who he didn’t always beat] Timmeh & Thurman

        vs

        Alvarez Diego Corrales Genaro Hernandez JLC Zab

        I predict Alvarez will be greater than both Morales and Barrera when it all said & done

        4) They share many opponents

        Floyd beat them all. manny didnt

        Floyd faced the better versions of these mutual opponents.

        manny destroyed lesser versions of: Hatton ODLH Cotto

            He asked Bob Arum, and Arum told espn himself that he wasn’t willing to make that fight or the Cotto fight. Let it go.

                You're using opinions against against facts that I've stated concerning Margarito.

                Hatton was undefeated when Floyd fought fought him and is well known to balloon in-between fights. You think it's easier for him to cut down to 140 or the 147 limit?

                Cotto had just come off a bludgeoning by Margarito and just had a tough fight against Clottey. He split from his trainer/uncle and essentially trained himself for the Pacquiao fight, then had to cut down to 145. I think Manny wins that fight regardless of the circumstances, but compare that version to Cotto at 154, coming off of 3 wins, having just defeated Margarito and having Pedro Diaz in his corner.

                If Canelo was a zombie then wtf was Oscar at 147?

                Wjen broken down, Floyd's win vs Canelo ranks above Manny's wins against Hatton, Oscar or Margarito.

                Wise choice leaving Mosley out.

                  And one of his wins was in the main event. What’s your point? Manny Pacquiao, Robert Guerrero, Victory Ortiz. All took L’s vs Mayweather.

                  That was pointless to mention that on your part.

                      Ugas was not top 3. You’re looking Ring rankings after the fight, which rank him at #3. Ugas was outside of top 5 before this win. #6 to be exact. And he was #6 by default. He hadn’t fought in almost 12 months. He was basically #6 due to other fighters above him losing fights while he was idle.
