Floyd has one disputed win and he jumps right back in the ring and fights the guy and beats him easy.

Manny gets knocked out and never avenges that lost. Gets knocked out again does not avenge that lost. Has a draw with Agapito Sanchez, never fights him again. Draws with Marquez fights him four years later wins a controversial decision (I thought he won it) then avoids him like the plague. He lost to Erik Morales and I have to give him credit for signing to rematch him. Morales losing to Raheem was not his fault.

But people talk about this warrior attitude and in the ring he does fight hard and does have a lot of heart (that's why I love seeing him fight and he is one of my favorites). But isn't it a little curious that this warrior seems a bit reluctant to correct his missteps in the ring? And is the aforementioned Floyd supposed to be the scared one but yet he wasnt afraid to jump right back into the ring with the only man who possibly beat him?

Please share thoughts and please refrain from the *****/******* nonsense. I'm asking a question.

I believe the "warrior" persona comes from the fact that he goes up in weight classes and convincingly beats bigger dudes for world titles. Truth is, you can dissect ever fighter's career and find flaws, depending on how you interpret it.

Talking about when they were still fighting obviously. Sanchez died in 05, he fought Pac aroung 2000. Torrecampo was still activeand available to Pac.

I know, I wasn't making an argument.

Floyd also has a controversial victory over Oscar delahoya and never rematched.

Pacquiao offered an immediate rematch to Marquez which i believe Marquez would have won decisively if they had agreed but team Marquez declined because they wanted 50/50. instead he fights Chris John in indonesia for 30k and loses. removing all demand for a pacquiao rematch until pacquiao knocked out morales.

Another interesting thing is that Pac actually has a disputed draw, rematches the fighter and wins. And another thing is Pac lost to a certain legendary fighter rematches him twice and wins twice. So really, Pac has done it more times than Floyd did.

Probably the same reason why Floyd never rematched the guys who beat him in the amateurs. Getting beat with just a bronze to take home looks like a big deal to me. Cotto destroyed the guy who beat him in the Olympics.
