    Roach knows that Manny would lose....

        Roach is blowing smoke...Mayweather wasn't boring against Hatton, Zudah, Gatti....He was boring against Baldomir because the level in skill was astronomical.
        You're right.. Floyd isn't boring at all.. Its really just that he makes everybody question themselves in the ring.. He sets traps and tey all fall... He is on another level with his boxing. No one can match him. We have never seen Floyd battered.. NEVER. Pac got mashed up considerably in both the Marquez fights even though he won. I have never seen Floyd bruised up or cut or bloody. Always clean like he didn't even fight anybody. JLC did great in his matches against Floyd but even then Floyd was fighting with a torn rotator cuff and had no pop in his punch. The guy had a handicap and still won. Also when he broke his hand early in the fight and won anyway easily. He is by FAR the smartest fighter, the most accurate, has the best punch placement, the fastest, most agile, best defense.. Pac is great but he has some deficiencies... defense is below average and he eats alot of punches in some fights where he is getting outboxed (Marquez I II , Morales I). I think Pacman is getting blown up a bit. He won't last 12 wih Ricky... Ricky has a good chin (Floyd KO'd Ricky cuz he is a master of punch placement) and Pac doesn't pack a one hit KO blow like a Cotto or Mosley. With him it is like 100 punches that do it. The fight wouldn't last 5 rounds... Mayweather KO's Pac easy.

            the fight i wish he would take is against shane .... but why not cotto?! it will never stop the haters but it would be a good fight without a doubt. hes a risky opponent whos essentially undefeated with a huge fan base and can bring good money . . . even as a floyd fan i am disapointed he never to a real tough fight at ww.

            i wanna see him come back and i wanna see him fight a tough true ww even if it means fighting pacman and then fighting one of them. u maybe right i am really starting to think he is not coming back.

                youve never seen it because he fights those that he knows he can beat and is favored to beat, he ducks fighters he knows had a chance to beat him. that is the secret to your floyds supposed greatness, greatness is meassured by the challenges you take not the wins against fighters your supposed to win and is favored against

If Pacquiao beats Ricky Hatton on May 2 in Las Vegas, Roach would rather go with another fight. He feels Mayweather is a boring fighter. [details]
                  'He's skilled'-Roach summed it up,basically means Pacman has no chance of winning

                    boring? I guess if you don't go toe to toe with a naturally bigger stronger fighter, you're boring!

                      if anybody can make floyd fight its pacquiao because of his speed and great body movement. Floyd wouldnt be able to get away with shoulder rolling pac either. this clearly a different type of ploy although to be honest at this point i dont think Pac needs mayweather. he can make his great share of money fighting Cotto instead.
