Could be true, could be false, but the point is #1 it gets people talking about the fight #2 it gets people second guessing how they think the fight will go.
Guerrero, Ortiz, Judah, even Cotto for a while fought Floyd as southpaws. Was Floyd great against them, did he have trouble with them, and does Manny offer anything different than those guys? I personally think Floyd was solid against those lefties, although he has gotten caught clean a few times recently (probably worst time was when Shane connected early) and you've seen him hang on and sort himself out. Manny is a pressure fighter with big pop...I think Floyd certainly has the skills to destroy Manny, but at the same time Manny has the punching power and constant pressure to trouble Floyd. For Manny to win, he has to avoid Floyd's sharp counters and flurries. For Floyd to win, he's got to avoid the big bomb.
I just want a fight as epic as the build up to it....which won't happen
Well, because Floyd does not ever let the media into his sparring sessions, no one would ever know. The last time the media was in the gym to see him spar was against Spadafora, and he was handled real well.
Sparring is different, depending on the type of sparring, than a real fight. One fighter can be on offense all the time, the other on defence... it could be a "soft" touch and go sparring session, or an all out hard fight in sparring.
So, EVERYONE is dropped at least once or twice in their career- in the amateurs, the gym training, or in a real fight.
If this notion that Judah dropped Floyd came out, I am more inclined to believe it because he actually dropped Floyd in their real fight; and for the mere fact is that is what sparring is for- to tune up, not to show an indication that you are there for a real fight.
Bigger man George, bigger punch!

yea cause everyone knows that sparring matches are "more intense" than an actual fight...
Judah hasn't done shit in the last 3 years other than beat up a never was prospect and then get his ass whooped by Malignaggi and Garcia, neither being on the level of Mayweather, a guy who's only been seriously hurt by a heavy handed Mosley
