Manny fans serious question..do you hold Floyd at a higher standard then Manny?

[HeroBando]

Of course not, much lower standards. Pac won 6 divisional titles before asking for his 1st CW. Floyd couldn't go 5, despite a promising start. Pac asks for his 1st against the much more experienced Cotto, a better fighter than the green Canelo (ask Floyd), against whom Pac would have been an overwhelming underdog 12 months prior. Then in 18 months Pac destroys all the other guys rated top 5 in his 7th division.

Even after the brutal KOTY loss he faces a guy that murders Khan, and Ortiz probably, and is even money (at worst) with Guerrero. Picking high ranked guys with very thin resumes at the weight (Ortiz, Guerrero, Cotto at 154) is a form of cherrypicking. Despite their soft WW ranking, Ortiz, Guerrero <<< Bradley.

Shouldn't Mayweather be held to a higher standard by any logical thought process? He's the p4p #1 and is winning fights easily. Pacquiao got knocked out a year ago.

3 pages and the most sensible post. But Larry knows this. Who wouldn't??

This entire thread is fueled by the Rios Vs Pacquiao fight...but lets be real....

Why are we pretending that Pacquiao Vs Rios was only going to happen due to Pacquiaos KO??

Bob Arum has been hinting at Rios Vs Pacquaio since 2011...After and Before the Shane Mosley fight.

Does anyone dispute that we were going to see Pacquiao Vs Rios either way?

your right,, it was going to happen sooner or later,, but its just like floyd with ghost, canelo and khan,, those fighters were groomed to be a floyd opponent, they offered canelo the fight in 2011, and khan has been on the radar for about 5 years, and ghost when he signed with GBP

[sugarsmosley]

Here's my serious question,why do you create a new thread everyday regarding basically the SAME topic? it starts with you asking pretty much a rhetorical question regarding floyd > manny.... you have completely convinced yourself that floyd is superior. why do you need assurance from other posters? unless you're just here to ruffle some feathers, if so good job op.

Don't hide behind the whole "I don't hate any man, i just hate his dumb fanbase!!11" you clearly have a deep hatred for manny for whatever reason... it's gotta be unhealthy thinking about someone that much. just come out that you hate the man, like flint.

[Dirk Diggler UK]

in 2009 "oh floyd ducks top ww's"...Manny hasnt fought a top ww since 2009 "oh juan and bradley are better".....wtf???

Who are these "top welterweights" you want Manny to fight?

[junior gong]

Because ya'll criticize Floyd for fighting ranked ww's who actually have wins at ww..no matter how you try to twist is they have wins at ww..Then criticize his win over Canelo who was a unified champ at 154 no matter how you twist it...yet praise Manny for fighting Bradley-unranked at ww..Juan-unranked at ww..Rios-unranked at ww..how are these solid fights for Manny but not to long ago ya'll were screaming "FLOYD WONT FIGHT WW'S" not that he is only fighting top ww's and top 154 fighters it still is not good enough..im serious how do you justify this? Manny has not faced a top ww since 2009 and this is ok with ya'll...why? if you think the top ww's are not good enough and 140 is better then why wont he just fight at 140?

Yeah, nice one Larry...yet another Floyd gobbler thread from you. How many is it now...600?...700?

You are the fanboy of all fanboys.

[RubenSonny]

Duran was much bigger than manny, he started at 135, whereas manny spent most of his career south of 135


Ok, thats fine, but the thread was about him fighting jmm and bradley, and at the time manny fought them they were legit big fights

That's not true, he started at around bantamweight.

[Vasyl’s dad]

Floyd says he's the best ever but refuses to fight the best of his era.


looks like he created the standard himself. so what's the problem?
