Manny is unique in one aspect. He loves to fight. With him...attitude is everything. I have never seen a boxer that has such a craving for fighting. i am convinced he really gets off on being in an intense battle. The more intense it gets, the better he performs.
The guy loves his adrenalin rushes, and smiles when taking a beating, while at the same time, giving a bigger one. I've seen this too many times. I was so sure Cotto was going to win, I lost 5 million points betting on Cotto. Glad i don't bet in real life...lol. Sure, Cotto could have done a bit better had he a real trainer and a great team, but no matter what weight and shape he came in at he still would have lost.
This is manny's main asset. The guy gets off on fighting like no other. I don't see Floyd loving to fight as much as manny. To be in a very intense battle is Manny's idea of fun. I don't think floyd has this kind of attitude during a firefight.
I think that he percieves it as work, while Manny precieves it as fun. That can make a big difference in how well any kind of fighter performs. Think about it, don't most people do things better if they like what they're doing? Even better if they love it?The only guy i have seen that can match his hunger is Ward, or AA. And out of those 2, I think Ward is hungrier...don't know about better. That remains to be seen.
