    When the Floyd camp accused Manny of taking PED's,..right then and there, he conceded FEAR. He lost. He showed weakness.

    ATG's agreed with PAC... basically "who the f#$# is this guy accusing me of this crap?"

      Well duh. He sits around top 35 when a win over Manny could've put him in the top 15

        Floyd's legacy is going to be fine with or without Manny.. Just being honest when I say they are just hating. They didn't get the kind of money Floyd does and they want to see him lose...Manny's career is an even worse case of ducking prime fighters, fighting washed up names, silly rematches AND he just fought Brandon Rios "to see if he still got it" while they're trying to get Floyd to fight middleweights just for it to be competitive!! Manny's status was boosted dramatically AFTER he attached his name to Floyd's in the first place so he should just bow to the king and try to win in the ring and not in court like Floyd had to do when Oscar was king....

        Also I noticed the maniac Pac fans have disappeared and that's because they don't truly think Manny can win anymore, so really who cares at this point. Wasn't Lucas or Khan the last people Floyd's suppossed to be ducking??When it's all said and done, he still best in this era....

          Best of this era you idiot. Most of boxing greats like Tyson, Hagler and many others agreed your boy is coward. You floydiots and your hundreds alts are the only one who disagree.

            and what did it do for marquez's legacy? paklas and HBO are still calling him a coward for not taking a fifth fight.

              There was without a doubt a period where Pacquiao looked absolutely indestructible and IMO Floyd was definately too scared to fight him and thats why the fight never happened. Instead he accused the Pacman of being a drugs cheat without a shred of evidence and he just kept going out of his way to make rule after rule that he wanted Manny to abide by which was all just a play to make sure the fight never happened.

              Anybody can get beat in pro combat sports just like Manny did against Marquez and I'm pretty convinced that had Floyd fought Manny in the period I spoke about above then he too would have had his unbeaten record taken away from him. If the fight happens now(and the clock is still ticking over in the mean time) it just won't be the same though its certainly still possible Manny could win but I think Floyd robbed us of what would have been one of the greatest fights in history if he wasn't such a coward and decided to face the prime Pacquiao of a few years back.

              The truth is that when Floyd was faced with what would have been the biggest test in his career he turned into a coward and he's gonna have to live with that and the questions people ask him about it for the rest of his life.

                Hagler is right, but he's only right in past tense
                at this point, Pac-Floyd is absolutely worthless
                Pac's shot and the fight isn't competitive anymore
                Floyd shoulda faced Pac 3 or 4 fucking yrs ago
                Floyd says himself legacy means fuck all to him though, so it's moot

                  It will. Like not fighting Mayweather will hurt Pacquiao's legacy.
