    manny fights absolutely nothing like Maidana & Castillo

    someone like Duran could get the job done without a major size advantage
    The version of Manny that beat Cotto and Hatton. Where was Floyd?

      You mean that version of Cotto that was 2 fights removed from the brutal Marg fight, and was drained at a catchweight...and a Hatton that already got knocked out by Floyd?

        manny would always follow Floyd around the ring

        doesn't have the footwork to push Mayweather

          Aren't you the same dude who tried to justify Floyd not weight bullying Marquez in the early 2000's with a recent flabby picture of him

              You're living in a hypothetical world where Floyd and Pac fought in a different year....all your talk is just opinion...the fact is when Floyd and Pac fought, Pac lost - badly! Live with it.

                I thought you was making up excuses for cotto and hatton:

                "You mean that version of Cotto that was 2 fights removed from the brutal Marg fight, and was drained at a catchweight...and a Hatton that already got knocked out by Floyd?"

                Thats your s**t right?

                Oh I guess when all else fails, Floyd still beat a past prime version of Manny.

                You can't make this s**t up

                  Same responses I see, its all you got at the end of the day with everyone who slaps you with facts, you've run your race and lost badly now you're just a heckler at the back of hall singing abuse to everybody up front, its gotten old and your crying is drying up.

                    This is technically true but it's also due to his dimensions, which he can't help. I can't fault Fury for being bigger and faster than most of his foes. He's just using what he was born with. Same with Fundora using his massive height advantage over his opponents.

                    Mayweather is 67.5" with 72" reach. Most of the welterweights during Floyd's time were actually shorter than him, but physically bigger. Almost all of them were slower with shorter reach and most coaches, like Breadman etc, will tell you reach is much more important than height.

                    I actually wonder how he would have fared against Ray Leonard - just as fast, harder hitter, taller, more reach, Crawford - bigger, more power, more reach, and Spence - bigger, taller, same reach.

                      imagine nitpicking

                      Ali
                      Roy
                      & Mike Tyson

                      Why didn't Ali, Roy, or Mike fight an opponent more athletic than them
