Manny has fought Marco Antonio Barrera, Juan Manuel Marquez and Erik Morales in his last (four) fights. He's been in tough fight after tough fight, he's been taking on the best fighters of the era and I don't believe that a fighter needs to be a life-and-death fight every time. In this case Manny's coming off a real war with Morales and this is a tune-up fight for the next war with Morales.

He's a huge puncher as well as good boxer. He's definitely deserving to challenge a guy like Jeff Lacy. This fight is a credit to Jeff. He doesn't want any easy fights, ... He wants to become a fan pleaser and to fight the best guys out there. Scott Pemberton is a guy who deserves that shot, and in order to help boxing, you need to give people who have worked hard and are deserving a chance. Now Scott Pemberton has his chance.
