Still his defense, movement and timing is impeccable, but he doesn't have the power to hurt Manny. Besides the knockout from Marquez, Manny has taken some brutal shots in especially when he fought Bradley pt.2, and he doesn't get wobbled, whereas Floyd has been hit with shots and wobbled a few times, most recently, one of the Maidana fights at the end of round 5, Floyd takes one and is very lucky the bell rang because he was reaching for the ropes to hang on.

If Manny can absorb the shots from Floyd and use his speed and his awkward, southpaw stance to keep moving and land power shots, Floyd might have trouble, but that's if he can get to him.

Manny is a better fighter than anyone Floyd has faced, weather people want to admit that or not. and vice versa

This is all just my opinion
