Fred D. Roach admits all his talk are "mind games" to throw cotto off

[str8balln]

"...Roach is playing mind games with Cotto the way he’d played them with Pacquiao’s most recent opponents.

He did it with Juan Manuel Marquez by trading harsh words with his counterpart, Nacho Beristain, with Oscar dela Hoya through his famous “can’t-pull-the-trigger” battlecry, and with Ricky Hatton when he told Pacquiao he’d be “disappointed if the fight lasts more than three rounds.”

“I’d do anything to try and throw them off,” said Roach, who created a stir just days before the Dela Hoya fight when he started questioning the Golden Boy’s hand wraps."

I thought his 456 different predictions were all to be taken seriously.

I don't think it really bothers Miguel,anyway Cotto & Pacman respect each other,Roach is doing his part from a buisness standpoint!!

i kinda agree with you....with the cotto camp being so secretive.....if roach wasn't doin any of this...there'd be no controversy....no noise....it would be a lame promotion.
