What gives?
as the others say.. you may wanna listen to Manny in between rounds.. he said "if you don't knock this guy out, it's not good".

anyway, not to get into the whole floyd thing.. but considering you're comparing the two in this thread i'll just say that you really can't compare the two.. Wlad is a heavyweight who 99 times out of 100 will have the size advantage AND he's known for his power.. Floyd is a fighter who moved up several weight classes, and is normally the smaller guy.. So to say Floyd needs to KO guys and not coast to a decision is bit much considering he has KO'd MANY guys who are bigger than him and who hit much harder than him.. He PUNISHED Corrales, and besides of evading Corrales' attacks, he kept attacking him.. no running.. that's just one example, as there are plenty more.. just to set it straight..
