Castillo took his balls.

Gayweather replaced his balls with a *****.

Roach rips Floyd performance

By Dennis Principe

They still have to deal with Miguel Cotto but Hall-of-Fame trainer Freddie Roach just couldn’t hold back in talking about Floyd Mayweather, Jr. The day he arrived in Baguio City to hook up with his prized fighter Manny Pacquiao, Roach told ********* that Mayweather missed the chance of gaining enough bargaining leverage in his latest fight against Mexican Juan Manuel Marquez. “The fight was there for the taking but he just couldn’t finish Marquez because he doesn‘t have the balls to finish him off ,” said Roach. “The only way that he could have benefited in fighting Marquez was by knocking him out and doing something Manny couldn’t do. He’s a great boxer and I can’t take that away from him. But he’s not exciting. He doesn’t make me jump off my seat. That’s what boxing needs.”

As for Mayweather’s chances against Pacquiao, Roach admits its going to be a difficult fight but quickly adds the Filipino multi-division world champion’s skills would eventually lead them to a victory.

“Mayweather’s not the bravest guy in the world so you got to take chances. He’s a very difficult style for anyone but with enough punching power and pressure I think my fighter can get him because I’ve got the best fighter in the world,” said Roach.

Roach thinks the most difficult aspect of dealing with Mayweather is not inside the ring but on the negotiating table.

“It’s what the world wants to see. But the thing is, can you get him sign the contract? I don’t know. It’s going to be difficult because he thinks he’s going to get all the money,” said Roach. “If he thinks he’s going to get equal money with us, he’s crazy. He needs us, we don’t need him.”

Roach justified his assessment of Mayweather’s marketability by describing the American’s 12-round decision win against Marquez last weekend at the MGM Grand Garden in Las Vegas.

“Let’s face it, the guy that puts asses on the seats is Manny Pacquiao. Mayweather doesn’t draw. Against Marquez the venue was 80% Mexican,” said Roach.

Pacquiao (49-3-2, 37 knockouts) will battle Cotto (34-1, 27 KOs) over 12-rounds for the Puerto Rican’s World Boxing Organization (WBO) welterweight crown on Nov. 14 at the MGM Grand Garden in Las Vegas. Both combatants agreed to fight at a catch weight of 145 lb.

Next week, Pacquiao shifts to higher gear as he gets to face
four sparring partners led by undefeated A merican boxer Shawn Porter . All are capable of simulating the style of Cotto, according to Roach.

“Porter is my main guy right now. He’s 11-0 with 10 knockouts and is a light middleweight who’s got a strong left hook,” said Roach.

What is interesting is this Shawn Porter. I just saw a video on one of the thread and he is good. If pac can take those punches, I'm more confident that he can take Cotto's punches too.

Funny Freedie, Floyd DID do to JMM what Pac couldn't - gave him a 12 round boxing lesson and won by a landslide on the cards. Try again.

Jmm is a greater boxer than Pac but Pac is the greater fighter. Let me do a rebuttal.

Pac did to Dlh what pbf could not do -- made him quit.

Lol you mean Floyd fought Oscar when he was legitimately in there to fight and conditioned properly. Manny fought him looking sickly barely looking to box, let alone fight. Manny LOST to JMM and arguably twice. Manny doesn't have what it takes to beat a Mayweather. I like Pac too so I'm not bashing, just facts speak for themselves.

the only thing that saves floyd is his wanksta attitude

You should have been the judge so that JMM would have won. Well what about Mayweather Castillo? Should have Castillo won it.. You should get mad also to Mayweather vs Castillo result why they gave the win to Mayweather..

even though Floyd did not knock Marquez out...he never was hit with anything significant or was ever in trouble.
I was just as satisfied watching Floyd do his thang, i really didn't need to see Marquez out cold.
