This Rematch needs Manny to score a "Hatton'ish" or a "KTFO6" type win to sell this on PPV. Or they can have this fight on FREE CBS & break TV records & give boxing the added boost it needs from that first fight. (Like a boxing refund)
If many looks shockingly bad we might see the rematch, and floyd is my number 1 fav fighter at all time, I believe he is technically the best ever however i also do think he is one of the biggest cherry pickers of all time he just tries to style it out slightly by fighting great fighters when they are not in their prime. The reason he is still my favorite fighter despite being a cherry picker is simply because i admire his sweet science, i just honestly think he is the best technically. Not the most exciting to watch but technically he is a genius.
You're right. He IS a cherry picker...but choosing fights at the right time is part of this sport now. Floyd and his camp knows when to take a fight and how to dissect an opponents weaknesses...since he is defensive styled it works for his game plan to adjust and be at the best shape at the fight. So he's either going to remain undefeated in the ring or someone just as good in the overall aspects of boxing will get to him.
Fighting past prime fighters mean everything slows down for you. Much easier task applying the sweet science when everything coming at you is slowed. Applying the same sweet science when everything is at full speed is a whole different ballgame. All of a sudden applying the sweet science doesn't come so easy.
last time floyd was at a pacfight, he was seen jumping up and down and hugging ellerbe when pac was beating up morales.
