Nope.
Manny is a joke and you're right there behind him.

It was his most important fight but he fought not to lose more than he did to win. His own father had to ask him why is he fighting like he's scared!
Floyd doesnt "fight" you. He sits back and focuses on nullifying his opponents and in return fires off one and done punches in order to score points.
Critics can say that Pac didnt sell out in order to make it exciting but I'll tell you, Pac put forth more of an offensive effort than Floyd did in that fight. He fired off combos when he could and was the one coming forward the entire fight. It's hard to be offensively effective and impressive when your opponent is 100% focused on killing any action by hugging, headlocking and evading in order to avoid engaging.
Its a shame that the biggest fight in the history of the sport turned out to be the most forgettable big fight in the history of the sport.

Funny, I remember all three Leonard/Duran fights. Especially the third. But yeah.
