    I used to think Floyd was fake man, but his emotions are for real. He cannot stand being underrated..? and this shows, even though he pretends he doesn't care. He's a confidant guy, and abit immature....."In a childish type of way" which i find quite funny.

    But one thing that strikes me about him, is that he's emotionally insecure. Which partly makes him the athlete he is today, all of his personality traits are the reason why he will never ever take any fighter lightly.

    Ortiz just comes across like a geeky, fat kid who's gotten confidant because he's lost some weight.

    Victor Fat Kid Ortiz :lol:

    I agree that Floyds insecurities provide him with the drive you'd need to be numero uno or joint first as it stands.

    What dya think drives Manny?

    Manny's just having a good time, when he comes out to fight, he looks like a child walking into Disney land.

    He "LOVE'S" what he does.

    Pretty much like Muhammad Ali and Sugar Ray Leonard did.

    True, you only have to look at some of his ring entrances to see the buzz he gets out of it. Off the top of my head I can only think of two other fighters who had as much presence when entering the ring/arena and that is Duran and Tyson. :bbb
