Why Couldn't Oscar and manny Talk **** To Floyd's Face

[aldo5408]

Floyd was already petrified at the mere thought of fighting Manny. What you think would have happened had he actually tries to intimidate him.

And Oscar just didn't give a fuq, he made big money for the fight and Floyd was his bytch for like another 5 years.

Kind of like the Eazy E vs Dr. Dre saga when Eazy E Said " but DreDay only meant Eazy's payday."

In this situation Oscar was Eazy and Floyd was Dre.

Dr dre is a billionaire and easy e is well

I did notice that everytime Floyd and Manny faced off during the promotion I saw Manny tremble a little bit. Ive never seen Manny tremble or look away from any other fighter. He stared down Oscar, Cotto, and Hatton but couldn't hold eye contact with Floyd. He even fought like he was intimidated. I've never seen Manny so timid to let his hands go ever. He fought Floyd with way more respect than anybody he has ever faced.

When Manny said he wasn't worried about this fight I think it was all b.s. because he fought like a man who was nervous. Just go back and watch the Hattonweigh in on youtube, then watch the De La Hoya and Cotto weigh ins. Manny seemed confident and grounded. Then watch the Mayweather weigh in and look at the difference in Manny's body language.

Manny watched as his best childhood friend died in his arms after a boxing match, and then proceeded to win his own fight. The man has gone through some life and death rocky type sht in his life. I highly doubt he'd be scared of a boxing match with Floyd.

I never said he was scared but he certainly seemed nervous.

And also because if he did come close Floyd would hold on for dear life. Keep him at distance, he comes close hold, rinse and repeat.

That fight had very little holding, Pacquiao's issue was that Mayweather found it too easy to escape out of the ropes using the check hook. Pacquiao couldn't stop it.

Man, you people are idiots. Pac usually looks goofy in face offs. Google image, pac/Bradley, pac/Mosley, pac/Algieri (pac even stood up on a stepping stool as a joke). Pac isn't really known as someone who is charismatic or intimidating. In fact, his child-like nature juxtaposed with his fight night inner-demon is what drew people to him in the first place (same w GGG). Both guys respected the threat the other posed--period.
But hey, if you guys want to micro analyze his non verbals vs Floyd to give the win more 'dominance', then apologies for interrupting your circle jerk. Commence.

He did hold when Pac got close in the corner, regardless boring fight where either landed clean some hard shots from Pac some clean from Floyd.

When you got tons of people rooting for Pacquiao it's gonna appear like he was being held a lot but Mayweather holding a lot is greatly exaggerated. I actually enjoyed it, lost count rewatching it.

It wasn't for everyone though.

Floyd vs Canelo is fight i would re-watch Floyd vs Pac is a illusion to me, so many saying Floyd schooled him when he didn't. Floyd beating Canelo look at the movement Floyd displayed stood in the pocket and avoided the shots, in the ropes shoulder roll and counter one of Floyd's finest displays.
