Freddie Roach, "Miguel Cotto is no longer the same fighter, he's finished!"

[MOTHER DUCKER]

Roach and Pac are becoming a joke.. (mainly roach)

So basically he picked Cotto because he is "finished"

He also mentioning Hatton was a "bad world champ" they were allways gonna knock him out inside 3 rounds etc.

Also heard him mentioning how Hoya "couldn't pull the trigger, was way past it etc"

When you add on Diaz, Pac last 3 fights have been a complete joke cherry picking from Roach, i hope he is wrong about Cotto ( i think he is). But basically Roach has been picking fighters for Pac after seeing glaring weaknesses in them.. what a joke

Thats why it is meaningless when people try to compare Pacs recent wins to old time fighters, who moved up to fight bigger non-shot opponents.
I hope Cotto ko's him.

people do realy underestimate the affect only having one eye for the best part of a fight has especially against a guy like clotty who is a big solid WW with good power speed defence and chin

i dont know how many of you have been cut before like that on the top of the eye but let me tell you from experience its not fun

[hugh grant]

Cotto is not finish because of margarito. The fact that Margarito was able to beat Cotto, was it because Cotto was finished before Marge got to him, or was it because Cotto wasnt as good as people thought.
What im saying is if Marge was able to beat him, Pac possibly would have beat him even if marge didnt.

Ts,Roach did say the same thing about Oscar,but he was training Oscar,so he saw that he was losing it!!Deciding Cotto is past it because of Clottey is about the ******est thing ever!!To my boy Dominicano,U really questioning Cotto's heart & believe the cut had nothing to do with the fight against Clottey??C'mon my dude!!

[Allucard]

So if you add Manny's cherry picking to Floyd's cherry picking, WHO ELSE IN THERE IN THE SPORT OF BOXING WITH A NAME? NO ONE. You haters make me laugh.

I'm confused by your statement.

I've been saying the same thing. I'm surprised everyone blamed his performance against Clottey on the cut, it was more then just the cut.

Clotteys big ass head didn't help though.

Roach trained Oscar, but you never heard a whisper out of his mouth until Oscar announced he was coming down in weight. Roach knew, even if Oscar was declining at 154, that he would still overwhelm Pacquiao at his proper ring weight of 167lbs, so they waited until he got busted up by feather-fisted Forbes while weighing only 150.

Roach knew Oscar would be as good as useless at 147, which is why they had Oscar come even further down in weight.

The same with Hatton. They saw, from the outside, that his career was finished after Mayweather KO'd him. He was stunned and looked like garbage against Lazcano, and was busted up in only 2 rounds by pillow handed Paulie.

I didn't even think Cotto beat Clottey. 2 of the judges gave it to him, but I disagree. Sure, Cotto survived with the cut, but he was getting out-boxed before the cut even happened. The cut is an excuse to overlook Cotto's horrible performance. I didn't think he looked very good against Jennings either. Roach saw a damaged goods mentally shot fighter struggle with average punching Clottey (but VERY durable) and decided to make Cotto lose weight to take out his legs. Just like what they did to Morales after he got dominated by Raheem at 133. Those few extra pounds are CRITICAL when fighters sweat out their last ounce making their proper weight, now they are forced to lose even more to "make it fair"...

Bet Pacquiao by KO if you want some money to wipe your tears when Cotto is starched and made to look like a bum. His career is over!
