Nostradamus interview but this is what I found interesting...
Roach:He presents no problem for Manny. He is too small and fragile for Manny. He doesn’t have the skills to hurt my fighter. Manny will break him apart before he knocks him out. The key to beating Mayweather is literally beat him up. You take what you can get. He is elusive but he can’t move his body. He is very quick with head movement. You break his body down, he has bad hands, bad ribs, bad knee and he’s had rotator cuff surgery. This is not a guess it’s the facts, period.
When asked if Manny will pressure Mayweather
Roach:Now you’re beginning to see what will happen in the fight. That’s exactly why Mayweather will be, an easier opponent than Cotto or Mosley or even Marquez. Manny will be applying pressure from the beginning and never let up. He will use both hands and he is certainly the faster fighter. The difference will come in the middle of the fight. Manny is continuing to throw shots from all angles and Mayweather will feel the Kayo.
I found this interesting because I always felt that Manny would do better trying to Blaze Mayweather with speed and use movement to keep Floyd off balance. Catch him with stiff speedy combos and be out. Kinda like Paulie said. I think trying to break Mayweather's body down over the course of a fight would be more risky for Manny because it gives Floyd the chance to time him and pick him apart. Freddie was blowing smoke in at least part of this interview when he said that Mayweather at best got a draw with Oscar and was losing after 6 rounds to Hatton. What do you guys think of the strategy Roach laid out? BS or is he on to something? This could also be a false game plan just to throw people off as well. discuss.
