I wish Floyd was as confident in his skills as some of the responses I've seen in this thread.
I've thought Manny would beat Floyd long before last nights bout. The shoulder roll isn't nearly as effective versus southpaws, Manny is just as fast, with more power, and throws at least twice as many punches, accurately. Seeing how Corley and Judah were able to touch up Floyd, I don't see Manny having that problem at all. Combine that with Mannys angles, and ability to finish, and it spells disaster for Floyd. His father knows it, he knows it, we all know it.
Its exactly why Floyd needs all of these extra tests even though he says Manny is one dimensional, ordinary, easy work and easy money.
If Manny was all that,
Floyd would have done it already.
