I don't think he ever meant it tbh. He was just taking a shot at Mayweather. Roach knows boxing inside out and if you know boxing u know PBF isn't the easiest fight for Pac - in fact Pacs probably tailor made for Mayweather.
theres no reason left for floyd not to stop jmm. he made a lightweight move up to welter, a guy who never fought above 135. he didnt make the 144 limit and refused to weigh on fight night maybe because hes weighing too much against a guy who came to the fight at 148. if humberto soto moved up from 130 to 140 looking fat, weak and slow to fight pac and he didnt get knocked out, the world ****s on pac. if katsidis moved up from 135 to 147 looking fat, weak and slow to fight cotto and didnt get knocked out, people will **** on cotto
A knock out would have been good. But the one sided beat down to me got the point across and probaly helped dude get his timing back. Hopefully in time some big fights happen that answer out questions.
He never truly believed that. Pac was lookin at the top WW's, and all of them should beat him. Cotto is the slowest and most vulnerable, and he should still be favored imo.
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.
Roach has trained a few world class p4p fighters....

Cotto could probably hurt and finish Pac...Floyd cant hurt and finish a light weight.. He is too defensive when you apply effective agression.

thats funny how to pretty quick south paws, Judah and Corley were able to catch and ROCK Mayweather...and that's just what Pac is..except he is a better fighter than Corely and doesnt fade like Judah......

hopefully when floyd is fighting a small guy, he will be willing to engage and throw combinations. maybe that way he can knock his opponent out
Floyd hasn't fought to many small guys since leaving 135. I think depending on the type of fight you may get different approaches by Floyd.
im not referring to the number of small guys he fought. i was just hoping that he would throw more combinations and engage a bit when fighting a small guy. its a shame that he cant KO a lightweight but i give him props for the peformance

Yea Floyd fought JMM rather differently then he normally fights but it was perfect because JMM could not do anything. Floyd's versitility is a major reason why he is so good.
