Freddie Roach Talks Mayweather Jr, Pacquiao vs Cotto

[sycomantz]

--------------------------------------------------------

mayweather/cotto will be very simliar to mayweather/gatti....mayweather would totally tag Cotto up ALL NIGHT LONG!!!!

and COTTO will NOT be able to catch him AT ALL!!!!! and please let's not bring up judah & mosley as examples of fighters with "speed" that COTTO was able to beat, Mayweather is a totally different animal......

cosign.....

[sycomantz]

So you saying that Cotto is at the same skill level that Gatti was?

no idiot. it doesnt matter about cottos skill set. hes saying that may's skill set is far too superior to cottos. may is too fast and accurate.

May will punish cotto like gatti. he will whip on cotto so fast he will become stationary like gatti did and take his licks like a man.

he will destroy Pac too

[sycomantz]

Get outta here with that statement, when Judah was tagging Mayweather all night at will. If it wasn't because Judah has no heart nor stamina he would have whooped Floyd that night. Cotto is a different beast in himself.

and how much did that tagging affect May? why did Zab get so frustrated and started being cheap?

b/c may stayed cool, figured him out and started tearing into his ass.

you clowns are delirious

[Kevin Jesus]

Roach can overlook Cotto if he wants but Pacquiao is not going to overlook Cotto.

Pacquiao has nothing to worry about with no-defense, slow-moving, heavy-footed Cotto.

[sycomantz]

you're cotto biased is screwing with your logic.

roach probably wanted pbf after hatton because pbf would be coming off a long layoff.

thank you for saying this. everyone sees everything thats not there.

roach wants people to fight pac when they arent 100%

I mean, I think Cotto is a good fighter but he hasn't improved
over the years and that's why he has a hard time with fighters
just as strong or stronger than him EVEN if he is better than them.
He has an all out ballsy style that relies a lot on his power. Once
you take his punch away he is pretty much just fighting you off
and trying to get through the fight (Margarito/Clottey). Floyd is
programmed to win in any situation and is in great condition and
can make adjustments at any point in the fight AND he has
underrated power and can take punches well when he does get
caught. I just think the fight would be a good one that I would
love to see but Floyd takes it in my opinion. PLUS Floyd has a
better corner than Cotto.

totally agree. especiallywith the underrated power remark in regards to floyds power. i

im just ready for these fights to happen so all the naysayers can come up with the next excuse when may walks through cotto, pac, SSM

Yeah, it pretty much sounds like Roach is disappointed at the fact
that Floyd didn't come back and fight Pacquiao. Floyd is smart,
he never plays into anyone hands in or outside of the ring.

If Floyd beats Pac, Cotto and Shane then there is NO more debate
on who the greatest is BUT you people who dislike Floyd personally
will find a way to discredit each and every win.

---------------------
again my opinion, let me rephrase my statement


he won't be able to catch him with anything meaningful at all!!!

mayweatehr gets put in a corner by almost everyone he fights and most dont have the power or boxing skill that Cotto has...the reason mayweather is hard to touch is becsue he runs and then uses his amazing defense when on the ropes or in the corner...but against a guy like Cotto who was pounding Clottey even through his defense it would be interesting to see how floyd handles that

oh and Floyd vs. Pac is a good fight historically becuse of the P4P thing but as an actual fight there is no question as to which will be more entertaining
