    Do you think Roach still feels Mayweather is the easiest fight out there?

    I'm not sure if he honestly thought that in the first place. Does anyone think that if that was truly his view as he said, it may have changed slightly?I think the fact that Mayweather is using the jab again makes things a little harder to come up with a game plan to beat him. Roach is good at putting together a game plan though so it should be interesting. Discuss.

    I don't think Roachclips ever really thought Mayweather was the easiest guy out there. Although I did see a couple of interviews in which he stated that. Freddie Roach used to be a very humble and nice fellow, but has lost the respect of several boxing fans I talk to as well as myself, who feel that he now thinks just because he has a world class p4p fighter, he can do or say whatever he wants. Freddie's time is coming.

        LOL Maybe. I think JMM might have a decent fight or two at 140lbs though.

          Hell, no he doesn't think that.....but if you're gonna risk losing you may as well make a ton of money fighting Floyd.

            Great point. These days, every time I hear Roachclips speak, the only thing I hear is "DUH DUH I'M A SMARTASS AND I WANT A BIG PAYDAY WITH FLOYD DUH DUH!" lol I'm not making fun of him for having Parkinson's or anything, I just think he's become something of a smartass since Pac has been on fire.

              I don't think he really meant it. It was more of a shot at Senior than anything, like the way Senior's been taken shots at Pacquiao.

                The thing s Roach was making reference to Floyds injuries and what not. Though its only one fight Floyd look sharp and quick witch may lead one to think that the time off did indeed help him heal as Floyd has said. Add to that he is jabbing more and IMO the puzzle just got a little harder to solve.

                  floyd is not a dangerous fighter. he's a potshotter.

                  cotto and mosley are more dangerous for pac because they are harder punchers and are willing to brawl with pac.
