fighting weight-drained, one-dimensional, far past-prime fighters and being praised for it only shows how far boxing hass fallen and manny and arum simply exploit it.
IMO Floyd is almost impossible to block or counter when he's within HIS range or he has distance on you with his pot shots. When he starts countering and throwing combos notice they are not as fluid right after the other as most fighters even when he is shoe shining which he rarely every does either. He might throw 2-3, pause, then finish the combo from another angle, that's how dedicated he is to his defense and counterpunching. Manny, on the other hand, relies on his feet more than his upper body like Floyd does, and fights off his toes. I think alot of his speed has to do with his smaller stature and reach. Because of his tremendous footwork, he doesn't have to bob and weave like most shorter fighters to get in, he just darts in and out from any angle. But he is much more reckless still. Never really seen Manny doing too many potshots, but he is definitley faster when it comes to combinations. Floyd didn't look so fast to me once he started opening up on Mosley.
you have a completely unrealistic expectation and a point of view not grounded in reality. haters gonna hate i guess all we ask is for Floyd to fight Pacquiao, he cant even do that you on the other hand like all the Pac haters have standards you wont even put on your OWN fighter.
