Roach: "Pacquiao Will Knock Barrera Out"

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Celebrated trainer Freddie Roach has predicted that Filipino ring idol Manny Pacquiao will knock out legendary Mexican Marco Antonio Barrera once again when they meet in an eagerly awaited rematch at the Mandalay Bay Resort Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas on October 6. [details]

If Pacquiao isn't 100% ready for this fight (considering the current situation Pac is in now flying back and forth), he may not have that stamina like he had four years ago when he beat Barrera.

I think Pac is one diminsianal the depend on power and speed once that gone it will be easy to beat similar to Tyson. e got one style

as for Nassem it was the same thing he wasnt training hard enough and went crazy thinking things going to come his way. It enough that his sparring partners knocked him down many time at trainnig that mean he wasnt training that hard

the power stays alot longer than the speed but yo are right once that is gone its alot easier to lose for him .......but i still think barrera wins by ko hes not looking for ADECISION HES LOOKING FOR A NICE PLATE OF REVENGE..........AND HOW SWEET FOR HIM IT WILL BE FOR HIM IF HE GETS IT.......PAC ALSO SEEMS TO NOT BE WORRIED

Manny is pound for pound one of the best boxers in the world. Not only has his work ethic been praised once he steps foot in the gym, he has beaten quality opposition and has shown up for every fight. So in my opinion stamina will not be an issue. However, if he keeps flying back and forth the jetlag/ time difference will mess with him for sure. As for the one dimensional aspect, he was more one dimensional when he fought Barrera and morales the first time. He has improved so much and I have a feeling that it will be another late round stoppage. Manny has too many weapons on his side:
1) Powerful left
2) newly found and powerful right
3) The high volume of punches he throws
4) speed
5) The variety of shots he throws ( Lots of angles)
6) The team that he trains with.
7) Stamina

So much for being one dimensional.

Let's not forget that Barrera is much older now. He may have had a close fight with JMM, but he did get rocked. If JMM had the quickness and volume like Pacquiao, TKO for sure.

I'd still bet that Pac at 80% readiness could beat a slower, heavier and older 100% focused Barrera.

Barrera has been getting way too old for a while. You see it constantly in his fights nowadays...he fades down the stretch and in the later rounds. He just has had so many wars, its natural that it would happen.
Itd be the coolest thing ever if he beat Pacquiao. I just dont feel too strong about it.

Pacquaios greatest victory will always be by far his 1st win against Barrera, I dont think that will ever be changed.
