    That is true Manny can take guys out but the whole question remain as Floyd is not an easy guy to take out as he has been hurt three times in his long career and in each of those instances nothing came of him getting hurt even in the rounds he was hurt in.

    I would say chances favor Floyd getting out of it if you look at the totallity of both their careers and what both men do/havedone.

      Most people do not say Manny "can" finish Floyd if he hurts him which is a very true statement.

      Most tend to say Manny "will" finish Floyd if he hurts him, that is not looking at the whole situation

        A great finisher needs to be accurate. Pac isn't accurate at all. Just look at Pac/Clottey. Horrid stats.

          I guess they look at Pac stopping and old, fat, well past it Morales and a feeble, old,sick, promoter in Oscar.

              JMM 1&2, Barrera 2, Larios, Clottey.

              Then you got Cotto and Barrera 1 that both got stopped but both by the corner not by any single streach (since that is what being a finisher is about).


              How many times has Floyd got finished or even approached being finish when he got hurt those three times.


              Zero, so using something that doesn't exist is better than using history to back up your arguement?

                  even floyd couldn't stop jmm and he outweighed jmm by 10-15 lbs.

                  mab was running from pac, but pac stopped him the first time.

                  pac was carrying larios in the PI, c'mon.

                  clottey is a huge WW and decided not to throw ppunches.

                  please with this bull****!!!

                  pac is a great finisher, but if his opponents get on their bike, the opponent's corner better stop the fight or just get unnecessary punishment. cotto and mab... both of them got on their bike and made the fight a longer fight.

                  now I've never said pac is a 1-punch KO guy, so he can't drop someone on a dime unless they are charging forward like hatton.

                  that said, don't use an example that doesn't even help you make your argument.

                    They didn't get finished because Manny was a great finisher though, they took an accumulated beating, smae as Oscar. A true finisher ends those fights much differently.


                    So the fact remain that Floyd by anybody's book will not be easy to take out and will most likely not let that occur even if Manny catches him nicely.

                    Manny is good and can take guys out but history shows that Manny is not perfect taking guys out especially when the guys don't allow it and Floyd has been hurt but got away scott free each time getting back into the fight before the round ends.

                    I fail to see how that reality leads to Manny taking out Floyd the first chance he gets him hurt~ all those fights applied to my arguement~

                      You haters use two punches to sum up Floyd's career. What is your point?
