We shouldn't be all "OMG FLoyd is fighting Shane!!!" its a good fight, correction a great fight... but its what should happen in boxing, 2 top welterweights fighting shouldn't shock us into a state, it should be common-place.
Floyd stopped getting credit because he's an amazing boxer, very talented and possibly an ATG, people want to see what he can do, they want to see him challenged, they dont want to speculate on if he could beat the best, they want to see him fight and beat the best.
Manny gets credit for now, because he's an amazing boxer, very talented and possibly an ATG, people want to see what he can do, they want to see him challenged, they get to watch him challenge himself, and fight top competition and continually impress not only with victory but the way in which he is victorius.
Manny gets credit from the boxing fans, because he's moved up in weight quickly and is KO'ing people who should be beating him because they're bigger and stronger opposition. He's fought people mayweather didn't fight, and the people he fought that floyd had fought, he disposed of in a more impressive fashion.
People keep playing the "Delahoya was dehydrated card" and though that was true, remember, it wasn't manny who forced oscar to come down in weight, it was a fight oscar wanted. And before the fight, we were all saying how it was a circus match, freak show, and poor little manny shouldn't be put in harms way like that, alot of people predicted Oscar KO by 4 rounds.... Oops, but now everyone acts as if Manny was picking on poor old oscar and forced him into this fight that he had no chance of winning... All the cards were oscars, he could make all the demands he wanted... and he lost, ...
But the Manny credit train is ending, people aren't impressed with him picking Clottey, which means the public has accepted Manny as a welterweight now, not a little guy who's fighting welterweights. For Manny to continue to get all the credit, he's got to start looking at floyd, shane and those guys, before he ends up with mayweather syndrome.... IE "Manny fought the best when he moved up to welterweight at first, then he started cherry picking weaker opponents, and only fought people he'd look good against and collected a paycheck"
The casual fans/general public look at the numbers on records and guage who was the best based on that... In the eyes of a boxing fan, a follower of the sport, you are only as good as the fighters on your resume.Comment

How does Pac get credit? Pac never gets any credit from the *****s .. here examples..
Diaz = Worst LW to have a belt, Worst then Baldomir..
Oscar = Weight drained, to old, and Mayweather busted him up already.
Hatton = Overrated, Mayweather took Hatton 0 already. Never the same fighter after Mayweather.
Cotto = Weight drained, never the same after Margocheato. To many wars.
Now Clottey = Tailor made for Pac, to slow for Pac, Clottey already lost to Cotto.Comment
