I can't be bothered with you trying to rewrite history, but......
1. It takes 2 to delay a fight. Manny wouldn't take the drug tests (explaining his "phenomenal rise") cos he was scared of needles, until he needed the money, then he overcame his fear.
2. Floyd got so scared that he gave Manny a boxing lesson.
3. You do know Floyd is 2 years OLDER than Manny right? Oh wait, it's Floyd's fault Manny couldn't maintain his standards even though Manny is 2 years YOUNGER!
Dear oh dear.
At least you recognise the "phenomenal rise" which glowed far brighter than anything Floyd did.
Floyd may have given Manny a boxing lesson but he had lost to Bradley and KTFO by Marquez so was damaged goods by then.
You and your obsession with age. There is a difference between chronological age and boxing age. Fighters who come from lower weights age far more quicker and have shorter careers in boxing.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
