    Because we are not talking about the last few fights of both guys like some are saying. Were talking versatility throughout their entire careers.

    Floyd made an over the hill Mosley useless. Sugar Shot Oldsley and emmanuel made each other clueless.

    Manny is easily my favorite fighter in the game today, but I definitely think Floyd is more versatile. Floyd is a genius at changing momentum in a fight. Manny is much better at that than some give him credit for, as he usually puts people into their place when they get too much steam on him, but Floyd usually has more options because he is so intelligent in the ring.

    Again, Manny's my favorite fighter and I badly want to see him shut Floyd up and knock him out, but I don't predict fights with my heart, I use my head. It's an even fight where I feel Floyd is a bit of a favorite. I think they have opposite strengths and can easily envision scenarios where Floyd's defense and timing are too sharp, he withstands some early tough rounds en route to a late round stoppage or UD. I can also envision a fight where Floyd's limited output lead to his demise, as despite his tremendous defense, there will be too much offense to defend everything. But by but he gets broken down, then stopped late.

    They both have a real shot at winning the fight, despite the fact one fighter is my favorite, and dislike the other.

    :roll: Why do I try. You're the same guy that thinks Manny Pacquiao is a better counter puncher than Pernell Witaker
