Roach on Oscar's Game Plan and on Mayweather's Flaws

[Welter_Skelter]

Dude, I don't care what you can do about my bar. it ain't hard to tell from reading your post who you like or what style you like. and then add in where you are from and it's clear. it's ok, you a homer and hatton fan, but the style of boxing that you like is not the style that the masses like. Everyone doesn't like Gatti or Duran. Most historian and old man fans will like the boxer over the brawler 9 times out of 10. and by the way, Mike tyson boxed, he never clutched or had a hug fest. he used head movement, angles, combinations, and he had great power when he was in his prime. so your opinion doesn't speak for the masses so don't make it seem like it does. I'm not scared of you so don't threaten me no more.

Of course you are not scared ..its the net.. But more with your assumptions.. I only live in the UK.. It dont mean I like Hatton.. Nor does it mean I am British
What you are doing is trying FLAME someone you dont even know .. Its childish...ANd All I am saying what comes around goes around.. its alot more fun when when people have an open debate.. some posts are obvious targets for abuse.. MINE wasn't...
that is all.
respect is a 2 way street.. No point hurting your reputaion over a bad joke and mob mentality
My threat as you call it.. was only a warning that your additude could backfire on you..
trust me when I say its better to have the members respect..

So you don't like Hatton? I whatn't trying to FLAME you. I was agreeing with Tito and I responded to him why you don't like boxers. I was having a open debate, you was dishing out threats. I think you like huggers and that is why you don't like slick boxers as you call it. So me disagreeing with you will cause me to lose respect of the members? And you say I got an attitude, you might have the wrong attitude. and i don't need any warnings...

Calling me a lover of UFC/MMA is about the biggest insult I can think of for me personaly..
NO I am not overly fond of Ricky Hatton

I like slick boxers as much as sluggers

What I like is excitement

Sadly In PBF's case he is too slick and his fights are often anti climatic as a result..

You can deny you flamed me.. but its there in print..
anyways I will let it go..

Ok, I apologize for UFC comment, only said that because they hug a lot. But I know you are a Hatton fan. I've argued with you and Iron Mike and Geofhayes before. So Floyd is too good for his fights to climax. Don't you think it a shame that someone is criticized for being too good. Shouldn't we criticize these other fighters for not being able to compete? I just don't think he we as fans should ridicule boxers for performing the sweet science. Any of us can get in the ring and go toe to toe, but not many of us can dish off punches without getting hit in the process.

Roach on Oscar's Game Plan!

Fight fans have already begun to analyze, debate and strategize over the May 5th super welterweight match up between Oscar de la Hoya and Floyd Mayweather Jr. Thus, ********* spoke to De la Hoya's new trainer, Freddie Roach to get a hint of what their game plan might be against Mayweather.
Roach offered: "Oscar and I have talked a little bit about a game plan, and we intend to use our size, because we know we're bigger and stronger than Mayweather. But talk is talk. When we get into action, things will come into play much better. We'll set traps and take advantage of some of Mayweather's flaws."
When asked what type of 'flaws,' Roach stated demurely: "We all have flaws in life. So, we'll be ready for whichever Floyd shows up: The guy that fights in and out; the guy that lays on the ropes; or the guy that runs. Hopefully we'll make Floyd into a runner that night. If not, we have a plan B and a plan C. Of course, we'd love to slug with Floyd, but I don't think he's man enough to sit in front of us and trade. If he does, I'll be happy!
"But we all know what type of fighter Mayweather is. He'll use combinations and he'll be in and out real quick - which is what he's very good at. And if I were him, that's the way I'd fight Oscar. But Oscar is not the slowest guy in the world and I don't think Mayweather can hurt him. Oscar is a very capable fighter and not one to be underestimated. He's very capable of pulling off the game plan that we have. It will be a tough fight, but that's what Oscar loves."

Floyd is going to have his hands pretty full on Cinco.

That's really the question - which Floyd will show up?

I just don't see how anyone thinks DLH has a shot of beating Mayweather. DLH is a boxer and he will get his socks boxed off by Mayweather. He's just not on Floyd's level as far as boxing skills go. He won't be able to cope with Floyd's speed either. His only shot is basically a KO. How many fighters actually win a fight when a KO is their only hope? Think about that. Then consider how many guys have actually been able to hit Floyd clean...

Nice post

and I'm going to say it again, DLH screwed up not getting Floyd Sr. as his trainer.

Funny how all the Red Karma Bars say DLH has no chance..
Their Boxing knowledge must be sooooo deep

I really dont believe Floyd Sr. would have made a difference to the outcome in this fight....
