    freddie roach has faith in manny pac...

    That's why he's putting him in with huge guys that can outweigh pac by 10+ lbs...

    People want to make it seem like it's wrong for roach to protect his boxer from humongus WWs... pac isn't even a real WW. Its roach's job to look out for pac's best interests. Mofos act like that's some kinda sin. Gimme a break!!!

    Roach knows Cotto will KO Pacquiao and is looking for every advantage he can get.

      If he wants to fight WW's then fight them at WW.

      If they are so much bigger than him, then stay in the lower divisions.

      Doesn't make any sense to me. Divisions are divisions for a reason.

            That's not true, otherwise he wouldn't want to weightdrain them. Plus Roach said Floyd is TOO small for Pac. Since Floyd is a small welter, then Pac must be a BIG welter. Don't you agree? I am just following Roach's logic.

                Roach is just protecting his fighter. That's what it all comes down to. There are no other fights for Manny at the JWW division:




                1. Juan Manuel Marquez
                2. Ricky Hatton
                3. Kendall Holt
                4. Juan Urango
                5. Nate Campbell
                6. Paulie Malignaggi
                7. Ricardo Torres
                8. Junior Witter
                9. Victor Ortiz


                There is not a single fighter in this division that could be considerd a high profiled prize fight. Worst is that there is not a fighter on this list that would stand a chance against Pacquiao. The only exception being JMM. So if he wants a high profiled prize fight, then he has to go up in weight to fight the likes of someone Like Cotto, Mosely, Mayweather, and JMM. Even though he isn't a Natural WW. So in doing so, he has to fight at a catchweight to even the score. Other wise he is at a big disadvantage. Besides in the end if the other oppent doesn't like the terms that are presented to him by camp Pacquiao ... they can walk away. It's not rocket science: If they feel the weight would put them at disadvange ... they can say no and move on. Example: Cotto doesn't want to put his title on the line because of fees which understandable, and they can't get things straighten out, and contracts haven't been signed ... call it off. There's always SSM who's more then willing to agree to Pacquaios terms. For me either fight is a hellva fight, and if Cotto and Pacquiao can't work out there differences ... bring on Mosely. Either way Pacquaio wins.
