    They both share the blame equally along with the dorks that surround them. They will both have to wrestle with it after all is said and done. If history and historians are fair on the whole then both will share the blame in their eyes also.

    Despite my comments I admire Floyd, as a boxing fan how can you not. I am more of a Manny fan, he strikes me as a little more real and in touch which I attribute to the life he had growing up. In all honesty I think this fight is still going to happen. Floyd senior made a comment that he thinks Manny has slowed enough where Floyd could easily beat him. Let's face it, both these guys have a business machine behind them and in the end neither side is going to walk away from what might be the biggest payday in boxing history. The problem is whoever wins or loses fans will be saying, well, if it happened ten years ago such and such would have happened but, and write this down, I am willing to bet Brocks left testicle the fight takes place next year and the hype will be like nothing we have seen. I'll even throw in miles right testicle and masters porn collection to show how sure I am this fight will happen.

    Pbf imo either is too vein or too simple to care.

    Owner of this thread could be proven right if historians pump up Bradley, Rios & Jmm as having the balls to do what Pbf didnt': fight Pac

    Obviously you guy haven't seen him make a scene over a women not knowing who he was. It doesn't like to show it but yes it bothers him he has a big ego and deep down its going to bother for him forever.

    But it was Pacquiao that ducked Floyd by refusing the testing!

    Floyd can spend the rest of his life satisfied with the knowledge that he did the right thing by not fighting a drug using cheat.

    Fair enough but if it happened 5 or 10 years ago the result would have still been the same.

    Are we to believe that if it was 5 years ago floyd just stayed the same age at 37 and wouldnt be better?

    Everyone seems to think because manny MIGHT have been better 5 years ago floyd just gets stuck in time and wouldnt be the same fighter whooping an undefeated hatton.

    Shall we even bring up the 2 year retirement to come back and school a legend in marquez!!!

    Think manny could take off 2 years and do that to marquez?!!!!

    Come on!!!

    Stop right there. If you actually think Floyds win over Marquez has any credibility then you seriously are delusional and very biased. Making Marquez jump up two weight classes and fight at a weight he has never fought at before is just as bad as Pacs win over De La Hoya at 147. Not to mention that Floyd didn't even try to make weight.

    Dropping weight to fight is much harder than gaining weight to fight.

    Floyd had a two year lay off!

    He could have had four fights and over 100 million in the bank!

    Name another current fighter today that had a 2 year long lay off and came back to fight a £4£ fighter as a first fight and made it look sooooo easy.

    You are missing something. I think Manny would win the bout. I'm just saying whatever happens people are saying it happened too late.

    It is too late but thats boxing.

    All im saying is that time hasnt stood still for floyd.

    The 32 yr old floyd beats the 37 year old floyd.

    I see manny winning a maximum of 4 rounds five years ago and getting possibly ko in this era.

    ("Imp your crazy, floyd hasnt had a ko in years")

    One thing that I have learnt is that mannys main flaw is that he hates boxers and counter punchers.

    Morales schooled him
    Marquez fought him four times and ko him in the last bout.

    (But we dont like talking about that lets just talk about mannys tough childhood compared to floyds asshole behaviour with money etc))

    Now both of these fighters dont have the speed of floyd, the defence or the chin so on paper its a bad situation for manny..every fan knows this.

    They are both slowing down but in floyds case he never fought a mma type brawler to the extent of maidana and he took more damage than usual..the last of his opponents will not have that maidana type style so he will be in his element of pot shotting and countering and winning on points like he usually does..(IF his legs are still there!)

    I don't think so. Floyd values money more than legacy, and he has made plenty. He wants to keep the undefeated streak more than searching for the biggest fights/wins available. He can live with that, knowing that his fans will come up with every excuse imaginable and try to deflect, so what does he really lose? When he isn't ranked as high as he feels he should be (TBE), he will cry about the haters and probably blame race (even though the guy has made more homophobic and racist statements than any other top athlete in recent memory). I have to add though: I think he will go down, without a doubt, as one of the top skilled boxers ever. I have him, skill wise, right there with Sweet Pea, Hearns, Hagler, Toney, Hopkins, Ricardo Lopez, Rigo...etc. The guy is talented, but his boxing mind and skills/knowledge of the sport is more impressive to me.
