Now I'm Certain Pac is Doomed. Words From Roach's Mouth...

[D-Omonist]

I havn't watched it in a while but I remember having Cotto winning a close fight. I thought Shane's speed would be too much but Cotto produced a brilliant performance. A rematch would be interesting and would be very likely if Cotto loses to Pacman. If he wins.... then I'm not sure where he'll go from there, Mosley's not a top draw anymore so a guy coming off a win over P4P number 1 aint going to fight him.

Yeah I don't think many fighters would want to face Shane if they are on top...I mean he is a formidable opponent and doesn't have a huge following. Two things that draw fighters away from fighting him...in a way it sucks though cause he is a ****ing great fighter.

It's called getting into the mind of your fighter...........


Roach knows how to push Pacs buttons and he's doing it. This is nothing new, Pac does this for every fight. He slacks off until it's time to train then goes 100%.

This is no difference....

Roach is pushing bottons? :gay:

There ***ed and Roach knows it.

It's 9-1-09, the fight is 2 months away and they still don't have a training loaction and he's still fliming a movie in some far away destination. Today we find out he wants a 150 ft ring, so he can run a track meet like Oscar did Tito. He slacks off until it's time to train? These fools don't know what there
doing or did by fighting Cotto the Puerto Rican Warrior. MY CANDY!

if cotto don't get pbf, the mosley will get pbf. if mosley beats pbf, then we will see cotto/mosley II.

i saw the match as a SD going to either fighter bbut not a UD to either

I had the Clottey fight a tie, but I have seen the Mosley fight a few times and I always have Cotto winning. I also wasn't biased about it either since I bet my money on Shane.

LOL...I think Roach IS afraid a bit, but I know Pac is capable of the upset. I do lean to Cotto whoopin Pac's @ss though. We will see!!!!!

Roach...."Sure he (Cotto) didn’t look good in the Margarito fight, but we all know that there were probably other influences in that fight. As for the Clottey fight, who looks good fighting Clottey? Cotto had a bad cut over his eye and took some big shots from Clottey, yet he did not go down and kept slugging away and won the decision. That shows me something, Cotto knows this is his biggest fight from a promotional sense he also knows that he can erase the memory of Margarito with a victory over Manny".

I thought he looked damn great in that fight up until about the 9th round or so when he started tiring out.. therefor like pullcounter says.., better knock him out in the early rounds.. cause i know he will have major stamina problems with lil pac... and he cannot.. CANNOT let it go to the scorecards..

Yeah in a perfect world you would have Floyd facing both Cotto and Mosley. Those 2 names alone would shut up half of the haters and having them on his record would take him to another level. However, I can see why no-one wants Shane. Like you said, not a huge draw and a massive risk to anyone that faces him. He's one of the few people I think could take Floyd to the limit and beyond and for that reason we'll probrably never see it happen

if cotto don't get pbf, the mosley will get pbf. if mosley beats pbf, then we will see cotto/mosley II.

I really don't think May will fight Shane. We will see how this plays out though...

I agree that he can't let it go to the scorecards, but I have a feeling that Cotto won't gas in this fight. He has already had a month of conditioning, and I really think his problem is fighting huge WW's that keep coming forward.

Hey who knows...maybe if Shane can beat Clottey and/or Berto he might get enough media attention for May to fight him. Either way I say Cotto faces him in 2010 or early 2011.
