Comments Thread For: Roach: Pacquiao Knocks Mayweather Out, an Easy Fight

If a guy gets arrested for weed, he now has a history of weed........it doesnt matter if 60 yrs pass, that person has a history

Floyd has been a consummate pro inside the ring his whole career and it is very unfair to call him a cheater especially when those 2 pounds had nothing to do with the result of the fight and all of you know that. If anything Floyd would have stopped Marquez @130.

The key to PEDs is to take it during training. It was a good idea to decrease usage but experts say random testing up to fight time is the only real way. Floyd wanted that fight badly while Manny made every excuse to get out of it. The OS testing was in the contracts from the first draft. People refuse to see Manny for what he really is but he bitched out of the fight just like he didnt want Marquez 3 or any part of Shane. I bet he would fight Shane now.

IM not sure but every time ive heard Floyd talk about testing, he wanted the other fighter to "be clean"....not clean during the first 6 weeks of training and dirty during the last 2.....so gtfo with your conspiracy theories

Gayweather couldn't KO fat and slow overweight JMM and 40yr old Mosley that were both literaly punching bags, and you think he'll KO Manny, you're either that ****ing ****** and ignorant, or just another plain Gayweather fan *****, or maybe both.

Mayweather just beat the **** out of Mosley, who even Roach said Manny wouldn't fight. Manny refused a fight with Floyd for 40 million dollars, but instead fought recently beaten Clottey for 7. Pacquiao is running scared cause the ass whipping Floyd is going to put on him is going to make even his own fans wonder about him, as they are doing now due to his refusing to test!!! So if you can't see that, it's really your ****** dumb ass that's ignorant and a Pacquiao prick sucker!!! ( And you like it)

Tells me they havent fought......blame Floyd.

He said he would stop DELA in 8-9..yall laughed, he did.

Said he would stop Hatton in 3..yall laughed, he did it in 2.

Said he would stop Cotto....yall laughed, he did.....

Floyd, next...

Yeah, right! He also said Pac would KO Clottey. He said Pac would take the random drug tests as long as he had a 5-day window to recover. He said Mosley was too good for Pac (he was right), etc., etc. Who cares what Freddie thinks? If the fight takes place, Pac will get his ass stomped.

It's called a first time offender. With a history someone would be in trouble but a first time offender depending on the offense get's a slap on the wrist. There's a huge difference.

Hey you never know what 2 pounds could do.....otherwise those 2 pounds wouldnr be worth 600k.....so why are you complaining about Cotto being at 145? If he can beat Pac at 147 then 2 pounds shouldnt make a difference right?

Yeah i do find it suspect that pac is very reluctant to take the drug test. people blame floyd but he was the one pushing test and for it to be done close to the fight. He was ready to take the test. I'm not saying pac is on something. I just find it suspect that you back out of a 40 million dollar fight over a blood test. if you are a clean athlete and know that you are then whats the big deal. i find it also more interesting that shane mosley, who has used performance enhancing drugs was more willing and did the test. That to me makes pac look more suspect cause you got a guy thats used that stuff before is more for taking the test over a guy who claims to be a clean athlete. If you are a clean athlete then take the test.

Trainer Freddie Roach is still stuck on his belief that Floyd Mayweather Jr. is not capable of staying on the move. Because Mayweather stood his ground against Shane Mosley and made it a fight, Roach thinks Mayweather's age and inactivity has caught up with him. Speaking with the Manila Bulletin, Roach predicts an easy knockout

I don't even know why I'm posting because Roach is likely to change his assessment as we all know. The first time Roach talked about this he said he would still need to create the perfect strategy to beat Mayweather. Now he says that its an easy fight for Paquiao and he will knock Mayweather out. I still think Roach is impressed with the way Mayweather handled the fight. I could understand Roach if Mayweather would have tried to run or stick and move right from the begining and then stand in front of Mosley but as soon as the bell rang he was right in front of Mosley. Even after he got rocked he still didn't try and run. Let's face it if a fighter legs or no legs wants to go into survival mode and get on their bicycle they can specially a fighter like Mayweather. He didn't. Another thing Roach and others are saying is Mosley got old or he was already old. Wouldn't that have given Mayweather an even bigger chance to pot shot Mosley to death now that he was old and gassed out? I do believe that if Paquiao catches Mayweather with a clean blow he can hurt Mayweather and then finish him but I've only seen Paquiao knockout one person with a single blow Hatton. Mayweather has a better chin then Hatton and will be really hard to catch with any clean blows. Apart from Mayweathers movement he has really great footwork. He knows how much distance to keep between himself and his opponent he knows when to move left when to move right. Yes Mosley caught Mayweather clean more then anyone ever has but Mosley had a height and reach advantage along with his speed. Paquiao may have great speed but not the other two. His punches are going to take longer to reach Mayweather a guy who's sees punches coming better than anyone in the business. Also Mayweather knows how to fight tall which will mean Paquiaos punches will be going up which will take some power off them. Paquiao can throw a lot of punches but that's where Mayweather jab and timing are key. Two things Mayweather really good at. The jab is not meant to hurt Paquiao for those who say he will walk through it. It is meant to throw him off his attack and blind him from the right hand. The timing is when he will throw the jab as soon as Paquiao attacks. Mayweather will have a reach and a height advantage plus his speed, footwork, movement and ability to see punches coming will add to his advantages. Mayweather will win by unanimous decision at the least with a possible stoppage depending on how much he attacks Paquiao. Paquiao has two chances to win early before Mayweather fully adjust to Paquiao or a punchers chance through out the fight.

As we can see Manny didnt even wanna do that so what's your point? Floyd has made his adjustments and insist on random testing up til fight night. Manny should have taken that offer when he had the chance cause right Martinez does a lot more for Floyd than a Manny fight out side of money and I'm sure a fight with Martinez would be another huge money maker for Floyd.

Nope you get convicted of a weed arrest and then you wanna get a job as a teacher or school bus driver but you cant because you have a criminal HISTORY.....1 is all it takes


Just answer this question for me.....how does Manny have a history of fightung at catchweights?
