Some people can't accept the situation when they are out of sync with the rest of the world. Bradley was appeared to be that way in their first fight. I didn't see Manny's interview either but it makes sense if he thought he was out pointing Floyd because of the crowd. Same as his fight with Bradley reacting to the crowd while Bradley is throwing ineffective punches and the judges counting them. If your not so selective in what you hear people saying you won't hear a double standard. Manny lost in the ring, and when he watches it he'll see clearly that he fucked up.
If he really believed he won the fight he wouldn't look confused and baffled when he was being interviewed. Him and his team are making shit up to cover their embarrassing performance. Now switch their roles and think if Floyd did that what would we be saying? He would get executed publicly, so there definitely is a double standard. And there are many more examples through out his career. Not to mention the excuses he comes up with rather than give his opponent credit. He's the so called humble guy who can't give credit every time he's lost or even when he has won.

Also you say they weren't self aware? Fighter of the decade and 7 time trainer of the year buy into the crowd and hype and lose touch with reality is what you're saying? What a joke. The fact that you're defending the sore loser shows a double standard in itself. No other fighter would get such leeway.
That is exactly what would happen to you if you thought you won and other people told you lost. Confused. I'm not defending the guy. Not everyone has the presents of mind in the heat of the moment. Freddy has obvious issues. The crowd can influence you. You have to experience it to actually get it. I'm not saying he believes, is lying or otherwise. I'm just saying perception is subjective. I'm offering you an alternative to the double standard you think is going going on.
