Freddie Roach Not Interested in Mayweather-Pacquiao

[Southpawkiller]

HA-Roach is an idiot

Floyd easily beats this pretender...although ricky will beat him first

[BROOKLYN CESAR]

Id rather see Floyd fight Shane!!! Floyd would handle Pac easier then he did Hatton!!! SSM is the best match up for floyd cause shane has alot more of a chance of beating floyd!!!

I hope this fight happens rather then pac v floyd!!!

I understand and agree with what he's saying though, Floyd has never really RAN. Cory Spinks runs. Floyd back peddles and lets you close enough to believe you can land to the body or head. Thats not running.

Agreed, i was watching the Castillo fight and was wondering why people say PBF runs, i mean the man was going toe-to-toe with Castillo in the last 3 rounds.

Well compared to Pac's style, one can make an argument that Floyd is indeed boring.

What Roach is trying to say is, Pac is known and famous for being in exciting wars. That's what keeps him in demand. Floyd is the type of fighter who will nulify the excitement, and make it a long drawn out defensive technical match. Nothing really wrong with that, but it wont be a Marquez kind've technical bout. Instead it will be alot of retreating, potshotting and holding, etc. Marquez is technical, yet very exciting to watch. He actually shows up to fight, and lay it all on the line. Floyd on the other hand is satisfied with taking on a more defensive roll, and waiting to capotilize off of his opponents mistakes. Although it works for him, its not the best recipe to keep a crowd hyped.

Despite all that, i would still love to see this fight. I think Pac's workrate, speed, power, and determination will be too much for Floyd to handle at this time.

I agree with Freddie even though I know he says it so he can bait PBF out of his cave. PBF really wasn't impresive at all when he fough The Golden Boy. Besides, PBF is playing everyone and laughing in the process, he just loves all the attention he's getting, and some dumb ass will give him the money he's asking for and guess what..... he will retire right after that fight again so people will start slobbering all over themselves for him. I think a tomb stone should be made for PBF and let him rest in his retirement.

very true. mayweather will not fight against someone that he knows can beat him. that's why he avoided all the big names in the divisions.

he did some in the boxing world but right now pac, marquez, mosley, cotto is doing and will do more than him.

this is not unexpected as floyd's demand for a $20 million guarantee has forced others to look elsewhere.

floyd got to realize that in this economy, floyd needs to lower his demands

[wengz2002]

Floyd is declared vacant~~~
It's his chance to fight PBF as he was calling him out~~~
Marquez vs PBF... Good fight!

Marquez-mayweather Winner vs PacMan-Hitman Winner!!!
This is Great!!!
