Why does Floyd not get the credit today for beating Manny ?

Often smaller opponents? Who did he fight that was smaller? Im pretty sure most of his opponents were his size or bigger

 

Let's talk about something more relevant. If big Antonio margarito is a giant than Manny is a giant Slayer. If Margo had always clean wraps, never cheated, etc. Then pac is the most best offensive fighter ever according to those calling it ringside. Alot of nuthuggerz put the Fab four on a supreme high level, what would margarito do to them? Pac sweeped that fight every round and was getting hit by the hardest puncher he ever faced. Those ringside also were there present at sugar Ray Leonard's fights. They still assume pacs greatness. Btw kovalev didn't take a flipping dive. Canelo just happened to hit him clean on his not so sturdy jaw anymore. A symptom that sometimes old fighters don't respond to headshots too well because of a weak chin from abuse/ concussion s/ ring wear n tear/ too much punches/ brain damage. We've already seen this happen to the great Jermaine Taylor.

 

You sound like someone who paid a lot of attention to his boxing style before and after 140...

Not that Floyd wasn't old too, but it was just a huge ducking

 

Then you KNOW he fought differently in his lighter days.

 

"Floyd fought exactly how he always fought"... except no.

 

Floyd got credit for the win. Was it a great win no. It was just a win. I think this is what has so many of his fans but hurt. That people aren't proclaim this win as a fight of the age or something like that. Reality was this fight sucked. Two guys that should have fought a decade ago but instead waited till neither were prime. It was a lack luster performance from both guys.

 

All of this talk of "prime" Pac. This prime Pac had no right hand, and when the fight was first offered, he was still developing his right but was mostly still a one handed fighter. Prime Pac would do worse against a prime Floyd then the older more versatile "past prime" Pac..

 

And...?

This doesn’t add anything to the argument.

 

People go on about the "size difference" like Floyd wasn't the second smallest welterweight out there after Manny.

Floyd wasn't even big at 130. Hell he famously only rehydrated to 136 and gave up 10+ lbs to Corrales there. Likewise at lightweight, hardly rehydrated at all and gave up size to Castillo.

Also, grown man Manny was never a flyweight ffs. He was a massive weight cutter and by age 23-24 he jumped up several divisions quickly because he outgrew the lower divisions. Realistically if he had kept cutting weight as a full-grown man to make the lowest division he could safely make, he was at least a feather weight. These guys were maybe 1-2 divisions apart at most.

 

Floyd walked down or stood in front of Canelo, Mosley, Maidana, Ortiz, Guerrero, and Berto.

He initiated 20+ clinches against Pac and landed the lowest connect percentage of career in Pac.

Plus Floyd was caught using illegal IV fluids.

You're dumb.
