Why do some hype up Mannys ww run yet try to discredit Floyds?

[Verstyle]

Floyd has defeated many more top ww's and ww champions,while Manny has spent the majority of his time at ww fighting non ww's and ww's coming off of loses.lets post their ww resumes

Manny

Cotto-wbo champ -great win
Oscar-not ranked
Mosley-coming off of a loss and a draw
Clottey-coming off of a loss
Bradley-unranked
Jmm-unranked


Floyd
Baldo-lineal champ
Hatton-unranked
Jmm-unranked
Shane-wba champ
ortiz-wbc champ
guererro-#2 ww
Judah-#3 ww-but coming off of a loss

To be fair, Manny wasn't ranked at WW when he fought Oscar, either.

very true,i was just posting all of his ww fights,Oscar deserved that beatdown

Cuz Manny's a Lightweight. What he has been able to do to larger fighters during the last few years is simply amazing.

And Manny's wins are more exciting and convincing than Floyd's.

Vers,


who hurt your feelings this morning? i see 2 'poor floyd, manny sucks' threads on the 1st page from you

[New England]

for starters, both are all time greats.

neither had all time great runs at WW. their runs at WW add to their resume, but they've got other stuff going on.

the rub for manny is that he's not a welterweight. the guy won titles at 112 lbs FFS. he was a part of one the best four man rivalry at or around FW. he was a little guy beating good welterweight fighters by the end of his career.


the rub with mayweather is that he's gone without a loss, and has been at the top of the sport since 1998. he's one of the best 130 lbers you are ever going to see, simply going on the eye test. he wasn't as prolific at 135, but he has two wins over jose luis castillo, one of the better 135 lbers of his day. at WW he fought most of the better fighters of his day (barring williams and margarito,) but many of them were fought at times when they were not at their best.


i'd pick the three best h2h welterweights of all time; robinson, leonard, and hearns, to stop mayweather and pacqauio. perhaps floyd goes the distance with ray leonard.

neither man has come close to fighting a big, all time great welterweight with punching power. you can't fault them for that, though. ATG's meetings in their primes, and at their best weights are pretty rare.

Manny on fight night weighs the same as Floyd though. You think Floyd started as a welterweight? Do you watch this sport?

Inb4 hurr Floyd is still bigger cuz he spends all of his time in the gym while Manny spends his time boozing and gambling.

now he is all the sudden a lightweight? when he was at 130 and 135 he weighed more on fight night then Floyd did when he was at 130-135
