    Roach will only fight fighters that fight back?

    So is this a reason why manny only fights guys that stand right in front of him and don't defend? Closest one is jmm and we all seen what he did. Just imagine floyd. Do u guys think roach doesn't wanna fight and has not fought a slick fighter because manny just wants a punching bag? This is my first manny vs floyd thread unlike alot of u guys who post 5 a day...Please discuss and keep the hate away

    Floyd would go pernell and manny would be chavez

    Freddie Roach has already admitted that he doesn't like the way Manny matches up with Floyd. Pacquiao doesn't match up well against slick counter-punchers.

      Most likely. I mean we seen DLH trying to come forward, Diaz was st8 heart, and Hatton used his head to move in and deliver 1 to take 6. Marquez a technician with a questionable chin beat him in the 2nd on many peoples opinion.

        I guess at least he's honest. But he keeps saying it's gonna be a boring fight, but really he's saying i don't think we can beat him

          I think roach has said on multiple occasions that pbf/pac is the biggest fight out there and he is willing to match pac up with pbf... the problem is that floyd wants all the money

            Yeah, but Freddie said that he hopes Mayweather prices himself out. He even stated that his dream scenario would be for Marquez to upset Mayweather, so that he could avoid matching Pacquiao with Floyd altogether.

              Exactly. Roach isn't a fool. He knows full well his fighter will be exposed against a true ATG.

                Well if Roach notices a decline in Floyd against JMM, he'll jump on it.

                Right now, with Freddie being worried about Floyd, that means Floyd was still good when he left. If he jumps on the fight after the JMM bout, we'll know Floyd is declined.
