Superb again and it is far easier for any casual fan to accept manny rather than floyd
The ironic reality is though, that casual fans are far more likely to know than anoraks. They are not so easily distracted by meaningless details like how much money each has made or how you think that Floyd is SO much more skillful."Worlds apart" was the phrase you used, but they are just not. Manny makes it look simple but the guy is not the clueless brawler you would like to think. It's nice to think we are experts but if we really were we would all bet our house on every fight and we don't.
