Pacquiao Could Retire Without Mayweather, Says Roach

[GRUSTLER]

So are you saying you think it is okay for Mayweather to follow suit? That is pretty much what he is getting ready to do and his fans like yourself will give him a pass for it. I guarantee you that Pacquiao and Cotto won't piss on Floyd's teeth if his gums catch on fire, and I'll laugh my ass off if he gets hung out to dry. I predict we'll see a Cotto-Mosley rematch before Mayweather gets the balls to fight Mosley. And what is he going to do for not paying his taxes?

The only way a person has problems with the IRS is if he cant
pay his taxes. Since Floyd can pay his taxes then I dont see
him having a problem with the IRS, I just see him as being on
some real ****** **** by waiting to pay his taxes/bills at the
last minute like a hood dude.

If Pac happens to win, and the PPV does well, we are going to hear months of negotiations.

Way too many egos involved.

I think with Cotto, it would be easier to make, not much but a little.

Friendship

True Friendship...where was Sonny Liston, Muhammed Ali, Freddie Roach etc. friends to give him these same advice while they were on TOP?

[GRUSTLER]

I know your down with the fight.

But owing the IRS isn't exactly a smart business decision either.

And at any rate, who cares what bad decisions either guy made.

I don't understand what more Mosley has to do to secure a fight.
Fight lesser people? He has a history of fighting the best, why drop down to fight an up and comer Berto or someone who never wins the big one, Clottey.

I am down with May- Cotto/PAC winner or Mosley, preferably Mosley.

I agree, owing the IRS is not a smart move by know means.
I do think a Berto fight after Margarito would of been good
for Mosley, especially giving Berto his first loss considering
all the hype Berto gets AND Mosley would have gotten a
belt to go with it. So what if Clottey isnt a big draw or name
BUT he is respected and a win over him is a good one on the
resume. Mosley even said after Margarito that all he wanted
was big money fights and a Cotto rematch was a step backwards?
How? Cotto beat Mosley, that fight and win after Margarito would
have been a great one. He should have just went to NY. Cotto
fights whoever and thats a good thing to do if your not all into
the business. Mosley was better off fighting then thinking he
was the man because he had one spectacular performance.
He was supposed to keep it going ESPECIALLY since he witnessed
with Floyd and Pac tat he had NO leverage.

Option1.If Pacquiao beats Cotto...He should fight Mosley. IF he beats Mosley he becomes the #1 WW in the world [that come from 106lbs] and hes still the #1p4p in the world.... Why fight Mayweather lol...who the hell is he and what does he have that Manny dont lol...

Option2 If Manny beats Cotto than some could argue that {**** the raitings} Cotto was the best WW. He has a great resume,even better than Floyds when it comes to quality of opposition. Also he even beat the #1 guy SSM so why fight Mosley! Again why fight Floyd what does he have that Manny dont.

Manny has money. Dont need Floyd to have money. Floyd needs money and needs Manny to do it. Id love Manny to do , option 1 , and retire and leave Floyd on dry street and saying ,"who fighting leftover now *****"!

Like I said multiple times you act like a fan of Pac but you really aren't. You are as bad as any Floyd nuthugger on this board. You should be ****ing ashamed of yourself...POSER.

It shocks me to think a guy who has fought DLH(2X) when he was good , Wright, Forrest, Collazo, Cotto, Margarito, and to a lesser extent Estrada, Vargas, Antonio Diaz, Mayorga and was a complete killer at lightweight has no leverage.

Wtf man?

I would think I was pretty damn good after looking at my resume after that.

Well, you think so, I may think so and definitely Shane think so
but nobody else in the sport is. Times has changed my friend.
You roll with it or get roll over and thats what happen to Sugar.

[MissDeeCole]

he clearly doesnt want manny or any of his other fighters to stay in the ring for too long and suffer the damage he did

[two_guns]

the fans wanna see it...

Arum hates Mayweather ...

Roach is protective of his fighter...

if Pacquiao fights Mayweather ....

it might have to be without Arum or even Roach...

Golden Boy might be the only promotion co. that can make this fight happen...

its funny that i predicted a Pacquiao vs Mayweather fight in 2004 and i got laughed at on here....

now this is the talk in the boxing world ....

so you say you predicted mayweather vs pacquiao back in 2004 but your
screen says that you been a member since 2006 ,what was your other
screen name? not to mention that it's yet to happen.

Mayweather doesnt need Pacman

Using Roach's Logic in reference of Pacman. Mayweather could fight the top WW and if he beats them all SSM PW and all the other high ranking WW in the division he is P4P the best in WW and retire. he will prove every one of his nay sayer's wrong including me cuase im not one of his fans. But anyways he wont trashed by everyone for saying he picks on smaller opponents from lower weight class's.
