When Manny throws 400 punches in a fight, you know he is either shot or injured. It has nothing to do with the opponent. Maidana threw 800, you can throw at the air if you are healthy and Manny wouldn't even do that.
Manny came in at his heaviest, 151-152. Either he didn't train or spar much after the injury or he was too careless eating those butter finger he is endorse by. He ate one right after he weighed in.
Before that he pounded a bottle of water. So by his weight fight night and his thirst and hunger ate weigh in we could assume he cuts weight purely for show. Don't peak behind the curtain
