Roach: I asked Shane if he could come down to 142 to fight Manny and he said no!

[RepublicaEnemy1]

Pacquiao's trainer, Freddie Roach, says that Mosley visited the Pacquiao camp and talked about a fight.

"I asked Shane if he could get down to 142, and he said no," Roach said. "I don't think Pacquiao-Mosley is likely."

Pacquiao won the biggest fight of his life at 147 pounds, when he beat De La Hoya last December, but Roach has been fairly steadfast in wanting him to stay at 140, where he will fight Hatton.

[J.B.moneY.]

roach is a great trainer.....but what a snake as a person and a business man he turned out to be....i think his meds have gone to his head.......he talks about how great manny is, but behind the scenes roach is trying to pull these shadey deals.....and is mr. opportunist to go up to 147 to take on oscar....what a snake.

[Sorbetero]

only sadistic will want that fight to happen

[Thread Stealer]

Of course. Mosley hasn't been that light in 10 years.

[-Hyperion-]

roach wants to see all fighters end up punch drunk like him....

[Kevin Jesus]

What an opportunist, trying to get Mosley to do a De La Hoya. See, this is why I want Hatton to win, SSM vs Mayweather would be easier to make once that little fly and his roach are out of the picture. Hatton can stay at 140 and fight Pacquiao in a rematch or have a farewell fight at Wembley against Khan or Bradley or even Campbell(Khan makes more $en$e though).

so what is a weight drained DLH the only one Manny's willing to fight at Welterweight?
