Interesting, i didnt realise Roach made those comments about a possible Margarito fight back in 2008.
I remember it clearly, but I had forgotten to argue about it since, at the time, it seemed as though he only went to 147 to face Oscar. Bugs the crap out of me that Roach had to insist upon a catchweight for Cotto's fight. Those two pounds may not have been critical, but they could have helped him be more competitive.
I was a Pac fan until he refused the drug testing for the first proposed fight with Mayweather and came up with all those hilariously lame excuses. Ever since then, I've just wanted to see him get knocked out. Roach is constantly running his mouth, so maybe seeing him forced to throw in the towel would be better. Unfortunately, I don't think Manny is in much of a position to lose, since they haven't put him in with anyone incredibly dangerous since Marquez.
