Dissention Growing in Manny Pacquiao's Team?

[Roger Mellie]

10 weeks!

8 weeks!

the first number is how far away the fight is.

the second number is how long his training camps are normally.

This seems to be a recurring theme with Roach and Pacquiao. Roach doesnt seem comfortable with the amount of people Pac has around him and their influence. I think he is worried that Pac might start believing in the stuff he is being told by his ever expanding entourage.

I hope that doesnt happen,but I wouldnt be surprised if it did,the bloke is only human.
Whatever the case,Roach seems a lot more pissed off and concerned than usual.

i think it's a power struggle.

pacquiao is a great guy but not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

he's easily influenced.

you know everyone around him wants to be THE GUY that pacquiao listens too.

i trust roach a lot more than gacal and koncz. i tell you that.

if it wasn't for roach , pacquiao would still be getting robbed blind by muhammad.

I agree Shane has the hand speed bu I don't think Shane runs as fast(in the ring) as Pac does - meaning Pac jumps around the ring like Bruce Li while Shane is more stable in the ring. If Cotto can handle the jump around then he's the man.

I agree.

And I also beleive that Cotto's jab will play a very important roll on controlling Pacman's speed and movement, including him jumping around the ring because if Cotto hits Pacman with that strong jab while he is jumping around the ring Pacman will be knocked down (not knocked out by the jab) and he will have to settle a little more in the ring.

Like you said IF Cotto can handle that then it will be his fight!!!!

The fights on the horizon for Pac,including this one are against the very best fighters in the world and if his head has been turned by all the attention,then it will end in tears.
I just hope he does the smart thing and realise Roach's worth.

One thing for sure: If Cotto catches Pac with a body shot he's gone. I saw Pac squeal from a JMM left hook to the body in their last fight. He won't be able to recover from a Cotto shot.

start of pacman's demise?

I have heard stories like these which end up the boxer lost the fight and blamed each other for the consequence of their misunderstandings..This konz is a leech under the feet of pacquiao,and starting to preempt dissention in pacman's team.How can he say that roach is only a trainer..then who is he?.the adviser who cant do his job except to lick the ass of pacman and get paid..if ever pacman lost in his fight against cotto then konz will blame roach for sure..This fight will be very serious one that roach needs to know what is going on with his boxer..this will be the start of pacman's demise,maybe his lost to cotto and the people surrounds him now will gradually goes away from him because they empty the blood and pocket of pacman..that's the life even in boxing..goodluck pacman,hope cotto will not mauled and knock you out,if so then i am right.anyway pacman is not interested to win or lose in this fight because he wants to retire and be a politician next year...where he will be beaten black and blue...

I really hope Team Pacquiao gets it together, I want a good fight! I bet that if he loses *******s will just blame it on these incidents...

[cabrademonte]

wow it is funny that a lot of people here are ****** in into the hype machine of freddie roach and company. Its all drama, something to talk about. I think he is doing it to make Cotto believe that Pacman will come unprepared or distracted come fight night.

I totally agree with you. Pac is no fool.

all he needs is roach to train , arum to promote and a good lawyer to go over the contract. that's it.

i don't understand why he needs all these people. they're all media attention whores.

the only guys who should talk to the media are roach , arum and pac.



that said......manny is use to all this chaos. shouldn't affect him. besides he only has 1 more fight after this. maybe 2 at most.
