    With the whole "Manny would've beaten Floyd if he were healthy" thing going around, out of curiosity, are there any other fighters or fights that you think would've been different if they would've been healthy, trained, not drained, etc..? Not talking about age so much since that can be a whole different thread by itself but their condition (or other factors).

    Some examples (and I don't necessarily agree with any of these)
    Mayweather vs Pacquiao (shoulder)
    Barrera vs Naseem (drained/hard to make the weight)
    Cotto vs Martinez (knee)
    Cotto vs. Geale (drained)
    Mayweather vs Maidana (gloves)

    What do you think?

    The only ones that I can see are:

    Cotto vs Martinez (MARTINEZ DEFINITELY WINS IF HEALTHY)

    Cotto vs Geale (Geale wins if not for the 157 lb weight + Jay-Z fix)

    Cotto is the biggest fraud in boxing.

    Lol maybe I should change the title.
    That's why I put in my post "or other factors" :lol:

    And yes, Cotto is/has been guilty of this as of recently. But he'll be exposed soon enough. ;)

    Wilder Zelenoff

    it would be a NC had Zelenoff been healthy.

    Geale wins if he wasn't drained and brutally headbutted, and of course Martinez, and while I'm at it margarita would have beat him in the rematch and Foreman might have had a chance had he not been flopping all over the ring like a peg legged Pirate.
