The mental alertness of Mayweather is keeps bringing him the wins, He's not aggressive but full of knowledge when he's fighting, he will run around after hitting his opponents a combo then keep repeating that from time to time, what he was done before will be the same thing after he accept this fight
Oh knowledge? Then I think that "knowledge" is the thing which keeps Mayweather to stay in his place compared to Manny which is getting more and more respected by the people as time goes by. Yeah! No doubt that Floyd had a very high fighting IQ because he knew how the match will be scored that's why he is always playing safe. He do some few punches, evade and then repeat which is a good strategy but he must also consider the audience because they are the source of his living first and foremost. He should mind that they bought tickets to watch an action packed match and not a fighter who always jog around the four corners of the ring

The difference between Manny and Floyd I think is the gap between the good memories they left on their fans. Even though Manny lose sometimes, people still appreciate it because of the intensity and hype produced by the match unlike to him that who just win by boring unanimous decisions.
