    Floyd would be like Chelsea. Defensively great, solid and can be flashy at times. But ultimately, still boring and just gets the job done.

    Manny is like Ars enal. Entertaining, explosive but can self-destruct through wrecklessness.

    Yesterday's match ended 0-0 between the two.

    Chelsea away from home with a few key injuries

    Floyd at home in Vegas in perfect physical shape

    Chelsea > Ars enal

    I have also made the Mayweather-Chelsea comparison recently

    but i would say Manny is more like Real Madrid, Ars enal are too soft, and cant handle teams with bigger and stronger players

    True, true. Manny is certainly tougher than ****nal. Real Madrid is a good choice. Was going to say Barcelona, but maybe not. Good stuff :good

    It could be like Seahawks vs Broncos. Seahawks- extremely defensive but well rounded. Broncos- extremely offensive but lacked defense.

    Or it could be like Donaire vs Rigo, Crawford vs Gamboa, Loma vs Russell.

    I'd say more like Barca-Real.

    Technical brilliance vs Speed and power.

    More like college basketball North Carolina with their 4 corners prior to the shot clock vs. Running Rebels of UNLV national champions!!
