Manny Pacquiao
A guy who pretty much matches Floyd in speed, is a southpaw(the only punch that really lands on Floyd is the left cross), he is an offensive whirlwind. And Manny is more dynamic than Mosley, he has the ability to land hard shots, to really punish even bigger men. When Mosley moved up his combinations dissapeared, all the boxing skill he showed at LW almost deteriorated because his boxing skill relies on him being the bigger man, and the fact that everyone at LW at the time were sitting ducks that Corrales, Castillo, Casamayor or Mayweather would have cleared out with no problem.
Manny is way higher up on the ATG list, he simply better than Mosley, and is the guy who matches up most equally with Floyd.
manny is not higher than shane on the ATG list that's crack smoking...and manny doesn't pose more of a threat than shane...manny is not as schooled as shane. hell freddie roach said after Raheem beat morrales that they weren't putting manny anywhere near Raheem because he was too slick. Even manny's own manager says that floyd is too much for him in term of skill. Shane has been in the gym since he was 8. just as much skill as floyd but tougher and more of a fighter/boxer floyd is a boxer.
The bullshit reasoning for PBF fighting manny if it does happen will be because of money nothing else. Floyd will stop manny, who had one fight against Oscar at 147, now he's back at 140 with hatton. and after hatton beats him. He will go back to 135.
Floyd needs to fight shane. it makes no sense if he doesn't. And with Mosely being apart of golden boy all floyd has to say is "i want shane now"
and they'll be fighting. I've heard shane say i want to fight pbf. not once have i heard pbf say he wants to fight shane. I have heard ellerbe say they offered but that's just ellerbe a floyd "yes man"
