Comments Thread For: Mayweather-Pacquiao in October or November, Says Roach

[Khalid X]

Make sure you guys go over all this during the show. Because I'm eager to see what Osiris has to say. What he saw Sat night will be a totally different Floyd in front of Manny. Floyd can adjust, Manny goes off a gameplan. The test will be if Manny has the ability to adjust. Roach can talk and coach but he's not in front of Mayweather when the action is happening.

Actually I won't because outside of Horus and a few others, I have no respect for Floyd fans. They are so condescending and think they know everything its no point to talk fight strategy with them. I mean how can you have a descent conversation if every response from them is Floyd is God, or that will never work against Floyd?

Remember I told you this: Pacquiao is an average - but busy - welterweight.

Miguel Cotto was shot and had no punch resistance when Pac fought him. Those beatings took everything out of Cotto...you will see that when he faces Foreman. Yuri has no pop and will still give Miguel hell. Watch.

Plus, Migs' corner was trash.

Pacquiao got hit four times by Clottey, and his eye was nearly closed.

Hatton was a ruined fighter. Forget the Malignaggi fight... look at the Lazcano fight. Rick was badly hurt by a lightweight. A lightweight who has little speed or pop.

Pacquiao is a Mannyfactured fighter. His accomplishmenta are way overstated.

Pac will get dominated by Mayweather. Not just beat....DOMINATED.


Watch.

I think outside a punchers chance in the early rounds I have to agree with the dominated part. I think Manny gets stopped.

[Horus]

Pacquiao has only faced one man at the welterweight limit.

Pacquiao has defeated three men within the welterweight limit and one had to come down to a weight he hadn't fought at in nearly 9 years, another had to go to a catchweight, and the third was a legitimate contender in name recognition, but was ranked #7 by the WBO, and not in the top 10 for any other governing body.

In a recent interview with 790THEZONE, Freddie Roach said he saw the fight, and thought it was a great fight, however Mayweather "Legs are Gone",
and he is a "pedestrain" at Welterweight.

Noteable Quotes
"If Pacquiao catches him he will finish him."

" His style now is very good for the fans because he didnt run and he came to fight."

"I will probably get into a fight with Roger, because he is so disrespectful,"

"Mayweather is going to talk trash, and Manny will say GOD will decide."

"I predict Roger will be jail, for hitting the girl, but I am a girl and he will have a tougher time with me."

"We will Knock Mayweather Out."


HE ALSO SAYS HE SPOKE WITH BOB ARUM, AND BOB ARUM TOLD HIM THAT HE IS ON HIS WAY TO THE PHILP. TO TALK TO MANNY ABOUT ACCEPTING THE FIGHT WITH MAYWEATHER.



WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK ABOUT THIS?

Roach is great.



Thank this guy for turning Roach in to a trash talker

yea saturday was nutts for Floyd fans. However you have to understand us floyd fans was super duper amp up. So please some of actions out of excitement....

Floyd "THE DRAGON" Mayweather jr.

Put on a show... what do you expect us to do ..lol

[IMDAZED]

me and silencers in private conversation have spoken extensively on the fight, mostly because we can talk without being interrupted by idiocy. basically something i pointed out months ago, Marquez didint really move as much as he waited, Pacquiao was halfway confused throughout the whole fight, the thing is, Marquez got caught with a shot that Mayweather would weather.

Pacquiao showed in the cotto fight he cant cut off the ring and he doesnt like movement.

Pacquiao also showed how bad his inside defense/fight game is, in the clottey fight, whenever clottey decided to press, he was successfull damn near everytime. Pacquiao for the life of him can move out of the way of the right hand, thats mayweathers best ****ing punch.

Mayweather has every advantage, but the thing that he showed saturday is that if hes hurt, he isnt folding. somethin alot of people just expect.

Pacquiao has his hands full.

I don't understand why people can't see this. I think the Hatton/Oscar/Cotto fights have gotten in their heads. Someone needs to re-post Pacquiao-Marquez II.

[Khalid X]

That guys' full of ****. I've been to a ton of fights between Mexicans and Phillipinos and Mexicans and blacks.

Namely, Morales/Pac 1, Cotto/Margarito, and others and I've never even seen anything close to a fight.

Only idiots fight for free at events anyway.

Have at it dumbasses.

He opinions on blacks come from listening to old NWA tapes....smh

[And Still]

Why cuz black people are thugs/hooligans? I honestly can't see how any fights would happened between the two.Honestly, I have been to a few Pac fights and the filipino fans are pretty laid back and chill. They don't start anything and are there for a good time. AA do get hype over fighters and the hip-hop crowd that is behind Floyd get kinda crazy but that doesn't mean they are gonna go around terrorizing people. It seems like you watch one too many movies or have listen to one too many rap albums, saying b.s. like that.

I say that because the Filipino guys have been highly disrespectful and racist.

If you think Filipino fans are chill about Floyd Mayweather, you are quite wrong. There is a level of vitriol that has become quite ugly.



When I go online, 95% of the racism that I see comes from the Filipino side.
I can spend the rest of the evening posting links to comments on a thousand different websites and Facebook pages.

Oh ok. I just wanted to what you saw in a guy who has proven over and over that he could adjust even when it appears he hasn't. I've seen Manny fight coming forward but not so much going backwards. My predicition is that Roach is going to work on that and have Manny prepared for everything because the fight is going to be very different from round to round. Respects to Manny, but I don't see anyone outboxing Mayweather for various reasons.

[sicko]

so does that mean he will take the test and fight?

Roach is not the one getting in the ring Manny is so what he says "Will Happen" means absolutely nothing

Mayweather is going to talk ****, run his mouth and flat out put on a boxing clinic for as long as Manny can take it

and Floyd is not even going to fight the same fight he did against Mosley, you will see the footwork against Manny Guaranteed, he will stay outside and use his reach advantage, he didn't have that reach advantage against Mosley so he couldn't fight his regular fight he had to switch it up, if he is depending on Mayweather legs to be "Gone" he has another thing coming
