New York - If it were up to Manny Pacquiao's trainer, Freddie Roach, fights against Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Juan Manuel Marquez would happen as soon as possible, with Pacquiao knocking off Mayweather, and, Marquez, respectively, in that order.

"As soon as possible, I'd have Manny fight Mayweather and then the rematch with Marquez. I would love to see Manny knock them out and shut them up," said Roach to BoxingScene.com. "I would love to see the Marquez fight happen one more time. I just want Manny to knock them out and be done with it, and then, he could retire."

The negotiations for a Mayweather-Pacquiao fight reached an impasse over the issue of random drug testing the first time around, and the fight never came off.

As a result, Pacquiao decisioned Joshua Clottey at The Dallas Cowboys' Stadium on March 13, and, Mayweather (41-0, 25 KOs) did the same to then-WBA welterweight king, Shane Mosley, on May 1`.

A gag order has been agreed upon by both fighters' sides, even as Pacquiao's promoter, Top Rank's Bob Arum, and Mayweather's, Golden Boy Promotions, appear to be secretly trying to work out a deal to make the fight a reality.

"I hope the fight happens, because it's the fight that everyone wants to see," said Roach. "The thing is, whoever Manny fights, give me an opponent, and I'll get him ready. I don't really care who the opponent is."

On Friday night, Roach received his fourth straight Trainer of The Year honors from the Boxing Writers Association of America.

Also, Pacquiao received his third straight Fighter of the Year Award, as well as his first Fighter of the Decade honors. Former world champion, Joe Frazier, gave Pacquiao the Fighter of the Year award.
