The haters can talk about Floyd’s boxing brain, born in a boxing family from birth would de-rail Manny’s attack…ok then Floyd, step up, more importantly; man up and fight the greatest offensive fighter of our generation rather than duck, issue delirious demands, unrealistic offers and evade our generational super-fight? Don’t talk the talk if you can’t walk the walk.

    No he is expendable at this point now that he s found god and softened himself..

    Manny is definitely a good embassador for the sport. He got people interested in boxing, but his time is coming to an end.
