Trainer Freddie Roach, speaking with ESPN radio affiliate 790TheZone, is under the impression that Floyd Mayweather Jr. is no longer the same fighter.

He can still move like he used to. He didn't need the movement against Mosley. Mosley was destroying him the first two rounds then after that Mosley basically abandoned the right hand and hesitated to throw. Therefore Floyd didn't really need to use his movement that much.

PAC is a pattern fighter. I give PAC the first four rounds (if that) to take Floyd out before Floyd figures him out and has his way with him. after that Roach will probably end up throwing the towel since there is no quit in PAC. But this fight won't happen anyways.

How can he say Mayweather doesn't have the movement!!
Mayweather didn't have to move around because the game plan was to brake him down!

But if Floyd's legs and movement were on the slide Roach is ****** to announce it as Floyd will work on those areas to sharpen up.
In short, Roach should stfu.

Floyd won't need his legs against Pac neither, he'll stand toe to toe with him too and walk him down and take him out in the later rounds...Roach has a mouth as big as Mayweathers lol
