and the way Floyd's life out of boxing being what it is and how it has shaped some coverage of the fight, I don't think we'll really see someone call out this fall out from Manny/his camp for what it really is. at least not from the same media outlets who swam in their own piss trying to pretend they knew anything about how boxing actually works.
I don't even think you heard this much plea copping from him after the KO.
it's a bad look for all involved, and Manny might end up taking a bigger L if the regulatory bodies look into that "injury" plea cop

nothing else i can say. he's always represented his fans well with his graciousness. i hope he comes to his senses once the sting of the loss wears off a little. and that trickles down to the fans too, i can't tell them nothing. i called home after the fight like "can you believe his post-fight interview?" and the response i got was "yeah that kellerman is so rude" lol i just dropped it.

For Arum to go out there right after the fight and try to make his manufactured case about Manny's elbow was absurd, and there was real tension between Roach and Arum in that presser, as Roach refused to co-sign what Arum was saying on the specifics of the injury. There's no doubt that Pac got injured at some point, but there's a real doubt as to how it happened and how long he sustained through the injury in camp.
Manny also failed to show the requisite respect to the clear winner of the fight. Floyd showed nothing but respect for Manny afterwards and would have absolutely granted a rematch - but Pac's refusal to be gracious in defeat may have cost him a shot at the rematch, and I don't blame Floyd for not wanting to do business w/ Arum's manipulative team.
