Judah, Corley and Castillo are great fighters who caused trouble but never had enough to get the win against that slower orthodox fighter...

Floyd is lucky that he had his homer Cortez in there for Castillo 2, Hatton and Ortiz or the surprise people got from how well Maidana did may not have been a surprise at all.

In the end this is not the same fight as it would have been even 2 years ago let alone 4 or 5. Manny's chances have increased a great deal and his drive is going to be incredible vs Floyds hubris. And if its going to be as easy as some super fans seem to think it is then there will be nothing to brag about. He simply beat another no hoper.
