    Floyd makes excuses, He is in the way of that fight (Pacman/Mayweather) being made and Bob Arum a little to some extent. Manny is more of a warrior like the old fab 4 from the 1980s Hagler,Hearns,Leonard,Duran. Floyd does not have the mindset of a great fighter, he has the mindset of a guy who does not want to have a tough fight because he does not know if he can prove he can win if the fight gets really really tough. As for Manny, He will fight anyone even after he was knocked out by JMM, he comes back and regains the title similar to how Hearns did years before. That takes a lot of guts and heart, which I don't think Floyd has. I am a person who thinks Floyd will beat Manny, but there is something about Manny he does not feel too confident about. Maybe he sees how Manny has a fighter's heart. Getting the job done? You have to fight the best to say you are the best. Getting the job done against Maidana (a handpicked opponent) is a waste if you have not fought Manny in 5 years. Floyd lacks confidence, and I would still pick him to outbox Manny. But he does not want to take the chance.

    So you think Joy Sinclair would stop Emmanuel Dapidran? :think

    I think Joy Sinclair wins on points over the current deteriorated version of Mr. Dapidran

    This fight should've taken place years ago when Dapidran was at his best, but Joy wanted none of that, he only wants easy fights and to keep his health intact. It's fitting that he has a female name.. ¨Joy¨

    I agree with the Floyd part, but not Manny. Manny has fought everyone even after being knocked out. It takes a lot of guts to do what he does. He deserves it. Floyd is so good but he lacks the deep warrior heart of the great fighters. Something is not as confident as guys of the past. I think 2 losses and fighting everyone is better than undefeated and handpicking for an easier fight.

    I will add that as both fighters are past their best, they are better off avoiding The Special One: Kell Brook.

    In the last year or so I've gotten interested in the higher weights. I stop in to talk/troll the Pac/Mayweather threads from time to time because it's hard not to get caught up in it sometimes, that topic dominates the board. I guess I'd call myself a Pacquiao fan (not as much after he became ultra religious) but yeah most of these posters you all call *******s sure do give the rest of us Pac fans a bad rep. They really dksab.

    Paulie stung Cotto at 140 and went life and death with Torres.

    Don't get it twisted, Pacquiao can crack, but his power is based on speed. Someone like Prov with short hooks is a natural heavy handed dude.
