Why do ya'll expect and accept to little form Manny yet want 10 times as much from Floyd?
They are seething from all of the notoriety that Floyd gets from his fights. Floyd is the one that has the contract from Showtime, the fighter that most boxers call the best. Adrien Broner says Floyd is better than him, Carl Froch says the same, so does Andre Ward.
They know, deep down in their hearts, Manny has never and I mean never, been anything but a curiosity since Floyd had leaves from boxing. Looking at the bulk of their careers, you cannot point to anything to show me that Manny would give Floyd any trouble. Floyd looks at Manny and the Bob Arum sideshow with contempt.
Why does beating Rios mean anything?lets be serious here he has 2 defeats he needs to avenge..Rios was 1-1 at 140 not even a top fighter there and has 0 fights at 147 and thats suppose to get you a Floyd fight? Not to mention they are on 2 different networks,If Floyd beats Canelo he will be lineal at 147 and 154..Manny has a lot of work to do
1) While it would be nice to see Manny also rematch Bradley/Marquez, Marquez may not want a rematch.
2) Seriously though, what did Marquez need to do at 140 and 147 to get the fight with Floyd? Oh yeah, NOTHING!!!
Floyd opponents Number of fights at WW:
- Hatton = 1
- Marquez = 0
- Ortiz = 1 (just needed to be Berto)
- Guerrero = 2 (just needed to be Berto)
- Sharmba = 1
- Khan was supposed to get the fight if he beat Garcia with 0 fights at 147.
