      Good post. I disagree with the Floyd/Manny comment though. What happened in the fight was more than meets the eye. Manny outpointed Floyd and beat him at his own game. He out defended Floyd, out smarted Floyd at times, controlled the center of the ring, and exposed Floyd for what he truly is. Floyd proved nothing on May 2nd. It was Manny who proved more. His performance was mediocre, but it went over a lot of fans head. Anyway, Manny would KO and stop Crawford right now. He KO's anyone at 140lbs. He is freakishly strong for his size like Evander Holyfield was.
      Give it a rest. Even Roach said Floyd won and he's hardly fond of the Mayweather family.

            Bull****, Arum said they always give manny a couple of opponents to choose from and he makes the final decision.

              It's been very clear for a while that Arum doesn't want Crawford to fight Pac and it's obvious why. Pacquiao isn't Hank Lundy or Dulorme. He would beat the snot out of Crawford.

                Roach lost his credibility with me, long ago. he also admitted to not watching the fight on tape. He refuses. So, your point is? Roach is delusional and wrong about what he thought he saw in the fight. He also said that Floyd's jab was very effective. He's wrong. Manny neutralized Floyd's amateurish jabs, like he does everyone else's jab. I guess you didn't see that in the fight, either? "Give it a rest"? Nope. I won't. They did Manny wrong man. FACT. It's all good because on Saturday, he gone F Bradley up, AGAIN! Someone Floyd avoided like the plague.
