If you really are a boxing fan, you know that Manny will be remebered most for -"Jim, he isn't getting up." Same way Duran is for No mas, and "down goes Frazier."
Outside of that, he will be rembered as a HOF fighter who refused to take a simple test to avoid potentially the biggest fight in history.
As a manny fan you may block these things out but these above are the 2 most talked about and significant events in his career.
They will not be forgotten!Comment

Lol. What will fmj be remembered for? Not fighting the little dude. No excuses. Case closed.If you really are a boxing fan, you know that Manny will be remebered most for -"Jim, he isn't getting up." Same way Duran is for No mas, and "down goes Frazier."

ESPN poll had him as top 5 all time.
Perhaps you are wrong in your assessment. Just because you and manny's fans will try and blame just floyd doesn't mean everyone will.
Fair minded, casual fans will let the facts guide their opinion. You should try that.Comment

Hey man just keeping it real. A lot of cats rode with fmj years ago with the testing, but after 3plus years and more demands, a lot of cats fell off. Real talk. Fmj says step up punk, the little dude says I want da fight, and now its bob Arum has to be ghost. Go figure man. LolComment

Interesting twisting of what actually happened. I guess thats why you reached the conclusion you did.Hey man just keeping it real.

You are entitled to your opinion. As I stated earlier-ESPN poll indicates what a lot of casual fans think about floyd. Also, as boxing history shows us, great fighters are not so much remebered for the wins, but the losses, especially if its a devastating loss that was unexpected. Manny isn't bigger than boxing and will not be treated differently historically.
If anything the two will be linked together forever and both will be criticized for not making the fight happen.Comment

And come on here. It wasn't as simple as you make it out to be. It was testing that had never been used in boxing. So what was the basis for holding the little dude to this standard that nobody else had to go thru?Comment

They were both doing testing, not just Manny. The $10 mil per lb overweight penalty, just for floyd, was something no one else faced, yet floyd just said ok.
No need to rehash history and get in an endless back and forth.
I get that as a manny fan you don't want people to remeber floyd in a positive way. Unfortunately, you don't get to decide it for them.Last edited by JDD1; 04-15-2014, 10:56 AM.Comment
