Roach: "Pacquiao Doesn't Need Cotto Without The Belt"

[DiegoFuego]

I used to be a big Pacquiao fan, but this about does it for me. What's he going to do next? Demand a 154 pound champ fight him at a catchweight of 148? This is a joke to boxing and makes the sport look ****ing ******ed. Pacquiao, go piss off you clown.

[DiegoFuego]

I can only imagine the outrage we'd see if Mayweather had pulled some **** like this in his career. Imagine him telling Oscar he had to defend the belt at 150 pounds. Pacquiao, you're ****in out!

If that is the case, then it's sad that you are satisfied with Pac getting a belt in a meaningless way such as that.

no i'm not!!
and i never said that....
we want manny to win the belt at 147 legit.
but the 145 is not that debilitating to cotto..he can easily make 145.
cotto will be 160 come fytnyt...against manny at 148.

now, i am only arguing on the merits of all the discussions.
i am trying to state facts....but others keep on sidetracking...
even attacking the persona of some posters.
and then i can't help myself but to join in the mud...just lately in my last post!!

How dare you call Cotto a shot because of his previous performances...You better analyse his opponents resume of how strong they were (Margarito, Clottey, etc.)...Every performance depends on his opponents style, when the fight is competitive it doesn't mean he has been weakened...You don't expect a fighter to dominate an opposing fighter everytime...Look at Pacquiao, why he couldn't knock out all his lighter opponents the way he did to bigger opponents, because he has improve & has different styles to consider...

i dont care what you say , everything you post is with the intention to make pac look better.even if cotto was parylized youd never admit it just to make it seem pac accomplished something great.cotto is clearly on the decline hes said himself so have anylists and roach thats why he chose cotto,the path of least resistance plain and simple. mosley beat the guy that annihalated cotto ,why is pac fighting cotto ???? cotto is no longer the best welter weight mosley is. so facing and even beating cotto proves nothing.

because pac called out cotto pac is facing bigger guys for money and legacey cotto is the champ welterweight champ and pac wants that.get it straight whats fair is if you challenge the welterweight champ you fight at welterweight 147,were it is and should remain.COTTO OWES PAC NOTHING HES ALREADY GETTING A CRAP DEAL AS IT IS 35% PURSE THAT SUX BALLS, IM TELLIN YOU THOSE DEMANDS ARE TRULY SHAMELESS.

There were many opponents lined up for Pac, Cotto was the first on the line as what Arum trying hard to push through...It's up to Pac to choose whom he wants, he has many options to consider...Roach is right Pac doesn't need Cotto w/out the belt, money is only secondary they still could generate huge amount w/ Mosley, or whoever is on the line...So take it or leave it...

pac wont fight mosley ever and you know it.or jmm or even gayweather i bet.

WHATEVER DISHONEST GUY YES IM ONE OF THE MILLIONS THAT FEELS THAT COTTO IS SHOT ABSOLUTLEY WITHOUT QUESTION.after clottey and margarito absolutley cottos skills are weakend,and thats why pac chose him and not mosley. dont act ****** you saw what mosley did to margarito you multiply that times ten if pac faces mosley,37 and all. and the only bigger guy so far pac has faced and beat mind you is delahoya.

HAHAHA....COTTO IS SHOT!
and so pac chose him!!
cottofans oi, to the rescue of your hero....

manny was even more SHOT!, he got tko twice and beaten by morales!!

and what would you say if manny-shane is @ 143... even 140 according to mosley himself!
you don't know that, don't you?

the only understanding you have is ANYONE PAC FACES IS THE BEST and that just isnt the case.pac should quit crying and either retire or go fight valero or something, cuz i know he doesnt have the balls to face the top welters.

clottey outlanded cotto by almost 65 pounches does that sound like a winner to you?????? they gave cotto a gift decision in order to set up this ****** and almost meaningless fight.
