    Granted Manny looked like a shell of himself against Jr. The shoulder injury definitely played into that, but it also wasn't the same Pac that blitzed ODLH/Hatton and Cotto. It was also posted Marquez flattening.
    keyword being looked

    years later after Floyd manny would go onto 7-5 Keith

    A top 3 win of manny

    Floyd was older and more done than manny does when they fought!

      Manny Pac had far more fights far more tougher fights. Had already been ko'd

      The bold !!!!!!!!!

      I guess those who beat Pac are HOFers............

        Who cares what your fake average is Floyd was holding all fight. It was a strategy

        Srl and Hearns had 0 holds between them

          Floyd had his Floyd appointed ref separating as soon as Floyd clinched, and he made sure he was facing Manny so he couldn't work inside

          If it was Steele he would have made both punch and get out the clinch

          Floyd was holding on for dear life and had help

            manny was always a limited inside

            the best range for fighting Floyd

            Jose Miguel Marcos brought it Floyd by fighting him inside something manny could not do

            Floyd turned manny into a lost puncher due to his limited infighting

              Well he would be more limited with a ref who is helping out his opponent

                pretty much manny would get beat up at close quarters because Floyd was the better infighter

                manny best hope was midrange

                  lol. Floyd was better at holding clinching and running that night

                  Didn't even land a decent combo

                    Less than 2 cliches per road, is very low, and thus, doesn’t translate to a “strategy”

                    I don’t know where you’re lost on that.
