Comments Thread For: Pacquiao, Roach: "We'll Fight Mayweather at Any Time!"

[fabie]

When did boxing's governing bodies require catch weights and 10 Million dollar penalties?

It's called agreements.

Pacquiao being from a smaller weight...is rightly so. Catchweights are nothing new and within the legal weight requirements.

Pacman should beat Floyd

After last night's fight, I now do believe that Manny has a big chance of beating Floyd.Floyd is gonna have a hard time with the volume of punches that Manny will throw combine with quickness & strong stamina.First he has to get by a very tough & hungry Mosley which is capable of beating Floyd.

How do you prove your the smartest kid or that you can be a lawyer, Judge, doctor,etc? "YOU TAKE THE DAMN TEST" Why are you against Manny being randomly tested?

man.. you're a dumbest man of your reasoning.. the point is not that he is afraid, but being insulted with Floyd's outlandish demand! For the whole history of boxing, why demand a reputed clean fighter to an olympic style random blood tests which is tantamount as accusing him of using illegal substance for his advantage without shred of evidence??? I don't even believes that the Olympic style blood tests is an effective one because it takes time before they discover the guilty one and I believes many uncaught from this tests, while they have numbers of success, so through with the NSAC blood tests standard!

And for Floyd's 40 wins without loss, why only this time he realized that Pac might be on something just because of Pac success??? Why, is he on PED of those 40 wins without loss and since he is afraid of losing to Pac despite using his own PED, he suspected that Pac PED is more effective and that he decided to disown using PED and wanted Pac to do the same so he have at least a chance of beating Pac? If so Floyd, just admit using those stuff and set your success as an evidence of using PED so Pac will be be cross-examined too! That's all you should do Floyd and that evidence we need to kick start investigating the training regimen of Pac. Admit it Floyd that you're in PED in gaining your record!

they both would take the test not just Manny being singled out, this insulted excuse holds no weight since both of them are "insulted" into taking random tests

*****s tell Flyod to man up and fight Pac, no more of this silly testing requirement.
The whole world wants to see Pac vs Flyod. Enough with this ducking Flyod, either fight Pac or retire.

No more weight requirement and glove size req then. I think that would be fair.

HUH? Whats wrong with 8 oz gloves? Its more chances of hurting opponent for a knock out !!! Its obvious you *****s loves this UD boring fight your queen provides.

You don't see how? Well, Floyd defends BETTER than Clottey WHILE throwing punches. The laser accurate punches you know... Pacquiao is incredibly easy to hit. EASY fight for Floyd.
Floyd can drop him and pot shot him to death, whatever he chooses too.

Also the cumulative damage Pacquiao takes makes him older in boxing years than Floyd.

Pacquiao gets hit more and more as he fights in WW. The commentators said Pacquiao was hit more in the Clottey fight than he was in the Hoya, Hatton and Cotto fights put together!

He was hit more because it was by design to open up Clottey's clam defense. I would see Floyd as better than Clottey obviously. You've posted but you also failed to see that Floyd can also get hit and probably more times than he can issue pot shots.

I see Floyd as technically, the master of defense. Bar none. He is the greatest at that together with Pernell Whitaker and Muhammad Ali (whom I consider the greatest). He WAS even greater in his glory days in his offense but obviously he has evolved into something lesser due to aging also.

But different styles pose different challenges. Pacquiao has never been known to be as a pure defender per se but his OFFENSE is his DEFENSE. It clearly showed that last night.

Against FLOYD, Pacquiao's relentless, all-angle, weird angle and machine-like consistency would also pose a great challenge against Floyd. He would be fading, ducking and shoulder-rolling as he would dance away while "pot-shotting"...(don't get me wrong I love this evasive style).

Sure he would Pacquiao. But comes with punching also revealing "openings"...

This is Pacquiao's style....

Therefore I see that the only person who can challenge Pacquiao is Mayweather and vice versa. Let alone Pacquiao is not just a southpaw but perhaps one of the best ever with his relentless style.

Do I see a weakness in Pacquiao? Of course....just as I mentioned it above, it is his DEFENSE. But that is due partly to his style of OFFENSE to "open up" his opponents for his taking...for his combinations.

Thus I said that Pacquiao's greatest challenge is also Mayweather.

It is the most contrasting of all styles...kinda like ALI vs FRAZIER (saw that fight live as a kid with my father in THRILLA IN MANILA). But a more relentless type of a FRAZIER while a less-offensive type of an ALI.

If anyone it is MAYWEATHER who can beat PACQUIAO....and VICE VERSA.

Let's bring it on!

floyd’s position is out of whack as no fighter should dictate on a supervising commission with regard to how it should conduct its functions.

just enter the ring and fight pac. no more bs! this is what the people want to see

No the point is cut the bull**** excuses and submit to random testing. Once a ****in gain what kinda man stands with a man that wont come clean? Look in the mirror and ask yourself why am I against the truth? Why dont I want Manny to be tested randomly? If there's nothing to hide then it shouldnt be an issues but all we get is bull**** excuses. Both fighters should submit to random testing in the biggest fight in boxing history. Don't bother writing me back if you have ****ed up morals and values I'm just glad you MF's aren't my neighbors cause yall some ****ed up individuals for not wanting this dude to come clean. Enough said.
