Does Manny actually need(to fight) Floyd to cement his legacy?

    After fighting a blown up, old JMM, really not sure Floyd even deserves to be in the same ring as Pac:twisted:It kind of pissed me off the fight was made at all. Then for PBF to go above the catchweight..dont get me started.

    There are plenty of great fights to be made and Manny should let Floyd come to him, not the other way around.

    It's the other way around, Manny has actually fought the best and has a much more complete resume.

    No, but it's a fight the public demands!

    Boxing needs it!

    MP is P4P #1 and FMJ is#2. FMJ needs Pac more. MP is on top of the world right now. He's on the driver's seat. If they want to be #1, they'll have to chase him down.

    Pac's legacy is already made. He could retire now if he wanted. The fact that he wants Mayweather is just the icing on the cake. If he fails his legacy is still intact, if the fight doesn't happen it'll suck for us fans but would mean much for Manny.

    Well... Floyd definitely needs Manny MORE than the other way around.

    The funny thing is that Floyd gets LESS out of a win than Manny does.

    _______________

    Manny has PROVEN he can beat good fighters.
    Manny has proven he can beat bigger good fighters.

    Floyd has proven he can beat good fighters.
    Floyd has NOT proven he can beat bigger good fighters (and Manny will not halp him here..)

    probably not to cement it as a great, but to cement it as a top 15 ATG he needs to beat Floyd.

    Cement? No, he's already an ATG.

    Enhance? Yes. He can rise even higher on the all-time list.

    U guys are all idiots! They need eachother equally! Duh! When the best don't fight each other it ruins both of their careers. Floyd needs Paq and Paq needs Floyd. If Paq were to beat Floyd he would be on the cover of Sportillustrated and vise versa. They need each other to go completely past the clouds to the highest level of popularity
