Manny Floyd Opinions

Mind games and when there is a lot of money at stake the "details" have got to be right.

 

Agreed.

It's been said many, many times before that if the money is right then the fight will be made. I beleive that. I think that this fight will be made within the next 18 months as soon as (to quote ontheup) the 'details' are ironed out.

Truth is though, if the fight is never made, we'll never know the reason why.

 

The less said the better.

 

It looks like Floydd is full on shitting himself in all honesty.

 

Floyd doesn't take on the big challenges. Thats evident just looking at his resume.

He wants no part of Pac.

 

Dont believe that for one minute, everything is in Floyd's favour, he makes more money through PPVs, he agreed to all Manny's stipulations.

I really cant see why Floyd isnt signing but I would bet its not because he is '' scared ''.

Floyd has beaten better fighters than Manny.

 

Name them please.

 

De La Hoya at Light Middleweight.

Mosley at Welterweight.

He fights fighters at their proper weight unlike Superman Pacquiao.

 

Someone has opened up a can of worms now op

 

Haha, just a bit.

Its never going to go away until both of them fight or both of them retire.

 

Retiring isn't going to make it go away. Based on the amount of talk we had about a Lewis comeback for years after he did anyway.

 

Neither fighter is/was better at Manny in their primes/prime weights.

'He fights fighters at their proper weights'; well, you've dispelled, your previous point, as De La Hoya was nowhere near his best A) when the fight happened B) at 154.

Marquez? Clearly 'at his best weight', oh, no, I've forgot, that was 'a warm up fight' and therefore allowed :rofl

Mosley was at his best at Welter, but not for that fight. Quality win nonetheless, but 'better than Manny'??!?

Apparently, I'm the one who's biased Good try:good

If they both retire without fighting, only one of them will (SHOULD) be considered an ATG. With Floyds pithy ring record, it won't be him. History will regard him maybe not as a 'ducker' per se, but someone who didn't take on the best challenges available to him on a consistent basis.

 

I'm past caring. If they fight then great but in the meantime I'll concentrate on fights that ARE happening.

 

two fighters thats it?

then Pacquaio for instance against Mexican legends - Morales, Barrera and Marquez.

Do you honestly think De La Hoya would have signed to fight Pacquiao at 145 if he felt he couldn't do it?

Then there is Cotto, a throwback fighter who ducked no one.
