Although Floyd has had some close decisions he is always on the right end of them so I believe Vegas will not allow him to lose. Even a close victory will mean a rematch.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
A few reasons why Manny is facing a stacked deck
1.....Floyd's last 2 fights were reffed by Tony Weekes & Kenny Bayless. Tony called the fight straight down the middle Floyd took a beating Kenny looked after Floyd like a Mother hen looking after her chick Who is reffing on May2 ?? Kenny Bayless
2... the 3 judges in Maidana1 scored the fight 117-111 116-112 & 114-114 The two who scored suspiciously high in favour of Floyd are judging May2 The judge who scored more realistically 114-114 Michael Pernick isn't
Need I say more
You definitely shouldn't say more...because you are either ignorant about boxing or a Floyd hater. I love this notion that Bayless should have allowed Maidana to do whatever the fuck he wanted. EVERYONE knew after their first fight that there was no way in hell they where going to allow Maidana to get away with his dirty tactics AGAIN. Maidana and his camp clearly didn't adapt...thinking the same bs tactics where going to be successful and/or allowed in the second fight. But that is the level of biased hate towards Floyd...where some people want the referee to basically allow a fighter to be dirty in order to win. Also, the fact that you think 114-114 was a more realistic score makes you have zero credibility. Keep hating.
^^^^^^
Great way to deal with a hater.
It's hard to say because the only real "gift" decision Floyd got was against Castillo 13 years ago, before Floyd had any real power in the sport. Regardless of what people might want to think, DLH and Maidana didn't beat Floyd. We've seen Floyd get split and majority decisions in fights he clearly won.
I'm not going to pretend to know what goes on behind the scenes: judges have the power to influence BIG money, so it would be foolish to think they were incorruptible. Nobody can say for sure if Manny can win a decision against Floyd or not, but personally I don't see it as a big issue. I don't think Manny can physically outbox Floyd over 12 rounds anyway. If he's going to win the fight, it's going to be by stoppage IMO.
So hopefully both guys are paranoid about the judges, and it puts more pressure on them to go out and push hard for a finish.

What people are realizing his Floyd has won all of his fights by pure skills of his. He never really needed the judges aside from 1 or 2 times (castillo,maidana). I think those were just good luck on floyds part getting the nod.
I don't think this is a big question at all. I think if there is somebody that rivals Floyds Vegas connection, that would be Pacman. Pac is good friends with Politicians in Nevada, California and DC.
IMO it is Flomos who would need to worry because it doesn't matter to Al Haymon anymore if Floyd stays undefeated in his last fight. Haymon can't make money from a retired Floyd, why do you guys think this fight with Pac finally happen?
Cashcow getting cashout. Just like Oscar vs Pacman, feed the cow to the wolf. Holyfield spoke about it, he said don't tell people about your retirement plan because it's in your last few fights you find out how many friends and enemies you truly have.
Remember when Floyd said he would never do business with Bob Arum and that is why the Pacman fight wouldn't happen? Too bad for him Al Haymon doesn't mind doing business with Bob Arum![]()
