    If Manny Had offered Floyd 50M and kept the rrst for himself does that mean Floyd should have taken it because he got less in his next fight?

    Again you don't seem to notice the difference between 2010 negotiations and 2012, do a little research then come back later

    I'd say he was prime between 2007-2009. A true ATG fighter, no doubt.

    Was Manny prime in 2010? No, but neither was Floyd.

    I agree, but they both would have been close enough for the fight to still matter.

    It wouldn't be as epic as it would have been from 03-09, but still.

    It would have been like Hagler-Leonard. Both were not prime, but awfully close to it.

    There's no reason to think Pac wouldn't of been schooled then either (and floyd blamed of course for not employing the "hatton" defence).
    Floyd was faster, stronger then. think about that for a second..

    Floyd would have pwned him at any weight class, at any time.

    He would have knocked him out in 2009

    well his most brutal performances did take place in 2009 when he was beating the sh*t out of everyone. so i'd say his prime was 2009. floyd didn't want no parts of that man. i think he ducked him because it wasn't until late 2014 you actually heard floyd say anything about him wanting to fight pacquiao. whenever someone asked him before that he seemed pretty uninterested. "i was at the top of my game in 96, where was that guy then?"

    haw haw thats funny, cos snow is really light and on a rope it......ok no its not funny.

    You're making yourself sound like a post DeLaHoya fan, thats all.

    no floyd haters talk about floyd at 130-135 and theres a reason

    5 weight classes...

    If Floyd wanted no parts of Manny in 2009 then why would did he try to fight him immediately after the Cotto victory? Do you just make up sh_t as you go?

    May's game would have been the same. Manny would have been entirely different. The only threat Manny really would have brought to the table is the very threat he had before he lost his killer instinct and slowed down.

    No **** he wouldn't outbox Floyd. He wouldn't even try to.

    He would fight him. He'd be cranking that left all night long. Floyd wouldn't be able to withstand the onslaught. The stamina and the power that Manny had. He wouldn't be able to breathe. Manny would make him fight every second of every round and Floyd would fold for the TKO.
