    Floyd manny didn't look too different from a high level light sparring session.

    The better skilled guy messing with the lesser.

      Cuse throwing this over hand right opens you to counter and Manny is fast Mofo ,he countered Floyd couple times in fight pretty good,and many is a fighter who gets you hurt one Time and its like ****in domino effect ,like in Cotto fight ,Miguel made mistake in 4 and never recovered ,i belive he could won it or make it close, he punished pac to the body pretty Good.

        Obvious difference is Vargas took more risks. And that's the only way you could land anything substantial on Pac. Vargas came to win, not just to survive.

          imo i think Floyd tried to press the fight early on but he got stunned he said f this and went back to boxing.

It was as much about what Pacquiao was doing that also didn't allow Floyd to build offensively. They nullified each other, Floyd could see the traps Pac was setting for the most part, and he didn't want to put himself in harms way.

            THAT is as much about Pacquiao being very good, as it is about Floyd not taking risks.
            Did Manny take a risk when he had Floyd on the ropes....or did he back off???

            Go watch what happened if you don't remember.

                its true.

                Vargas at least fought a healthy pacquiao.

                Floyd on the other hand was nullified by a one-handed manny, despite usada allowing him to go in with all his drugs.

                  Watch the first round. He landed two right hands that set the tone for the fight. Manny was the one who didn't take chances after Floyd landed those two right hands.

                    "Didn't tale chances after Floyd landed those two right hands"

                    Then manny just pummeled floyd in the second round up to fourth?

                    Manny was countering Floyd with straight right hands then Floyd once again would shell up and pot shot, but to you it was enough to give rounds to floyd which I don't even know how the hell can you give it to floyd.

                    In the third round all three judges gave it to floyd despite Pacquiao countered Floyd with a right when he lunged in somewhere in the round and counters with a straight left while putting him against the ropes with flurries but still floyd 'won' the round because he was pot shotting manny despite the fact that manny blocked many of floyd's punches, how the hell is that fair for the Manny if the the criteria for him to win is that it is a must for him to COMPLETELY DESTROY Floyd in the round or else it would be a Floyd round?
