    So tired of this topic.


    Yes, Floyd was afraid of Manny in 08-11. He ducked prime Manny.


    It’s literally his strategy and he tells other boxers to do the same.

    Prime Manny beats Floyd via volume and relentlessness.

      Head to head I’d usually pick Floyd purely based on styles but I do think Pacquiao could have beaten him at some point.

      Say they fought 10 times prime for prime, I do think Pacquiao would at least win once.

        It was a 50/50 fight in 2009 Floyd didn't like those odds.

        Yes absolutely Manny could pulled it off the first fight, or a rematch

          There was no problem until Floyd caused one and he stopped the fight from happening thus continuing his romantic partnership with Ellerbe unbothered in San Franscico.

          It makes no difference at all what the reason for wanting extra testing, none at all considering everything its a fair ask from any opponent in a fight worth so much money.

          You do realise Manny forced Rios and Bradley to take the same tests he refused to take, no cut offs no told when testers are coming, exactly what Manny refuse he forced on a B grade fighter .

          Fck I get sick of conversing with children in this place, a bunch of ignorant dumb cnts.

            lol at least one out of 10 lol , after the first win the other 9 would get easier and easier , Manny is not in Floyds class its as simple as that.

              Sure the reason matters, especially if the reason was just to delay the fight which Floyd was successful in and as a result easily out point a past his peak Manny who had recently suffered a bad ko loss.

                The only way it could delay the fight is if Manny is saying no, what fck is wrong with you .

                  And he did, but he would not have the option to if Floyd had not needlessly insisted upon this which he did because he was worried he might lose if not the testing he would have come up with some other roadblock to delay the fight.

                      He could have said yes no problems just like any other fighter would do and the fight was on. so no matter what way you want to dice it saying no to random testing is what stopped the fight from happening.

                      Your mentality of Floyd saying yes to Mannys demands and Manny saying no to Floyds only demand and yet its Floyd fault is so fcn weird , only a child could come to your conclusion it makes no sense, do you have any idea of the money involved in winning that fight, you think in todays world its unfair to want security against cheating.

                      And what of all the excuse Manny made as why he doesnt want the testing then he goes and forces B grade fighters to take the same test he refused.
