Freddie Roach: "I'd Love a Fight with Manny and Cotto"

[mrbigshot]

yeah i think manny would be too akward and too quick for hatton at 140

[cortdawg25]

i FOUND IT FUNNY THAT ROACH WOULD FIGHT OSCAR AT 147, BUT NOT FLOYD. MANYY WEIGHED 148 ON FIGHT NIGHT FOR CHRISTSAKES.

thats why floyd's entourage said hes enjoining retirement! They are negotiating the weightclass and floyd wants his advantages too...and i bet they are also waiting for Manny to destroy Hatton, and thats why Roach downplays a Pac - Hatton mach here.

Freddies a great guy and a great trainer, ive got alot of respect for him but i do find it hard trying to understand what hes saying , i couldent make out alot of stuff he was saying.

sounds like Roach doesnt think much of a Pacquiao/Hatton fight except for the obvious big money. he knows Manny KO's Hatton somewhere in the middle rounds!

Yeah, I found it funny the first time he mentioned it. I found it even funnier that certain posters ripped me for calling the absurdity of it.

If Manny can fight Oscar at 147; why not Floyd?

Freddie wants to beat Floyd before he gets into the ring. Smart, but in a way, very dishonorable. Floyd didn't try to beat Oscar on the scales, did he?

Beat a Fighter at his best.

Just because most people don't look into all the facts of the fight doesn't mean you should be a theif and steal a victory. Again, Smart, but is this who you want to be?
It's like drugging a person up before he gets into the ring.

Roach said because Floyd already knocked Hatton out...so, Floyd is the Man to fight. Makes sense.

Props to Manny for wanting Floyd (according to Roach).

[BetterCallSaul]

Pacman beats a worn and weary Oscar and now he is guaranteed to beat Hatton by KO? People are basing this on Pacs destruction of De La Hoya, but Hatton would have destroyed that version of Oscar too.

Hatton vs Pacman is a close fight, and the fight that should be made.

gotta love freddie.
