Roach's Weight Demand Could Collapse Pacquiao vs. Cotto

[emokillss]

it's really not fair for cotto to fight in a catchweight if pacman wan't WW belt fight him in his best form,but then people want's to see this fight 143 is over huge handicapped,maybe it's much better for pacman to unniffied the 140 belt look 4 other champions then fight the winner in bradley v campbell....

Hi Puntoyhauf



I've noticed that most of the Filipinos who have been posting feel the same as you do - do you know if that's the general feeling in the Philippines? If so, maybe there's some hope that Pac might be swayed by public opinion?

I don't know about the general public here in the Philippines, most Pacquiao fans here doesn't even know the weight divisions... and not really boxing fans. Many Pinoy fans only heard about Pacquiao when he defeated Morales in their 2nd fight.

But Pinoy members here know their boxing... even before there was a Pacquiao.

We want a fight to be as fair as possible for both men, and I know Pacquiao will fight anyone at any weight if you dare him to.
His faith in God is bigger than any man he has to face..be it a middleweight. That's why he's fearless and cares less if he loses.

Never going to happen, Both Bradley and Campbell bring absolutely no money into the picture, nada

Roach is only an employee, the boss is Arum.

Cotto will fight Paquiao at 145, l let Roach stick his finger where the cow get drown.if he do not like it, let him take the train to assville

[cottothechamp]

i agree with anto but i think the fight possibly could also be made at 144, 145 most likely

[K U Y I P]

cotto is a dumbass if he doesn't agree with the catchweight and fight pacquiao. no fyt will give him a big payday like a fyt with pacquiao. 143 or 145 he'll ktfo the pacman anyway.

[Jone2ts]

good!!! Take that Arum...your greedy bastard. tI dont wanna see Cotto get his Ass whooped anyways. Cotto-Mosley II is huge, get it done!!! or Cotto-Clottey II with Mosley-Berto on the same card??? Pacquiao vs the winner of Bradley-Campbell, and wait for the winner of Mayweather-Marquez. its not like there isnt any other big fights out there, Arum can suck it. and Roach is trying todrain the sh it out of Cotto, its a shame...

Thats absurd...Mosely is the champion. The politics of boxing dictate that Cotto must fight Mosely. Cotto won the Mosely fight but was destroyed by margorito, Mosely then destroyed Margorito. So we are back at sqaure 1 again. Mosely is the guy that desrves the big fight period. Pacman and ERoach can suck a **** with this weight manipulation ****. They got us twice already with that ****. The jokes over we want a legitmate fight. I think floyd should just scrap the marquez fight and let JMM Vs Pacman 3 happen. Then just give us Cotto Vs Mosely II with Floyd fighting the winner. berto should have to fight willams since no one will pay top dollar to see either guy at this point.

I hope so. This fight doesn't excite me at all.

**** Roach. He's a piece of ****. He's only doing it because he knows Cotto's too much for Manny.

Its painfully obvious.
**** this fight. Its always gonna have a cloud of doubt over it. Either make it at the right weight or scrap this ****.

Im sick of Roach, he's making Manny look bad.

Freddy the Joke Coach Roach.

Is Pancho Villa still celebrated by Pinoy boxing fans?
