That's how the machine works. Floyd and Manny practices the same thing and they are good at it. I would say Floyd is def starting to take bigger risk but thats only because the money at 147 is dry at the moment.
    Exactly!!...that Roach comment said it all....when I heard him say that I just smh....Roach forgetting how to sell a fight!!

        Well they just screwed up major with JMM 4. right? Or maybe they think Pac is at the end of his rope, time for some new blood. That'd make the Bradley robbery a bit more understandable

          I'd rather believe Hopkins than Arum.

          HOPKINS SHOCKED: PACQIUAO BRAVE TO TAKE RIOS FIGHT

          You people need to stop this nonsense. You have your own brains.

            No, manny made a mistake when he dropped his hands pressing for the KO when JMM was clearly hurt. In the 1st fight Manny had JMM down 3 times in rd 1, he couldn't finish him. You can't blame these on the matchmaker. If anything it proves the matchmaking was sound.

            Manny got robbed. He won fight easily vs tim IMO.

                  you manny fans really are something. if a floyd fight is a blowout on paper-you say its not competitive and garbage because you know floyd will win. so you don't wwatch. cool.

                  yet when manny is in a blowout on paper-it's ok that its not competitive or garbage because there will be "excitement" and action. so its ok to watch.

                  fact is this is a bull**** fight where manny's opponent has no chance to win. If you don't like watching fights you think are blowouts at least be consistent.
                  I guess nobody remembers that pac is coming off a KTFO loss

                    Yeah, one got outboxed in a competitive fight and ONE IS COMING OFF A KTFO LOSS. But a loss is a loss I guess?
