What If Manny & Floyd Lose this year?

[Slip Stream]

Those were fights between fighters not promoted by the same company. I think we can agree they are different situations.

Top Rank wasn't going to put manny in with someone who could beat him at this stage. Doesn't mean manny isn't great.

In my humble opinion this is an unequivocal fact, Top Rank wouldn't risk their number one cash cow against a fighter in Manny's own stable. For the Pacquiao deluded and obsessed it's hard to imagine but true none-the-less. Bob Arum isn't an idiot; it wouldn't make any sense to put his top fighter in with anyone that's even remotely a threat, not when Pacquiao's fans will pay to watch him fight a ham sandwich. Arum didn't make all of his millions by making impractical matches, as they relate to his profits.

Better in my opinion and I like/respect both of them. Realistically I don't see Marquez or Ortiz winning.
