    Yeah, Manny's experience was huge. From Márquez 2 to Margarito was peak Manny imo. His speed, power and toughness was still as blistering as ever (at 130-140 anyway) and he had all the skills necessary to use it. Now he's older you can see his skills more and they truly are excellent. His head-movement in the their Bradley fight was excellent, and against Margs he used all of this tools to beat up a bigger guy.

    ATG. Pac > Floyd on lists.

    But he'd never beat Morales at 122 or 126.

    The same Manny who said,,Morales was just so big and strong and hit hard,,,,was the same Manny that stopped Margarito at 154....either Antonio was weaker than Morales or Manny was a roid monster

    Or Margarito w/out the loaded gloves wasn't that good...

    This fight, this entire trilogy actually, broke my heart. I'm a huge fan of both guys, so watching either of them fail is like a kick in the gut, but watching the other succeed is a fist-pumping "**** yeah!" moment. Good job as always escudo.
