Comments Thread For: Pacquiao vs Foreman May Be Next in March, Says Roach

[fightingfigs]

The question is how much will Foreman be weight drained....its shame he'll be putting his belt on the line for a catch-weight. I think we need another diamond belt up for grabs.

Man this is a shocker to me, If he can go to 154 and win a title that would be amazing!

GO Pacquiao keep on making history!!!! Become Middleweight champ !!!!!

Am I illiterate... or did Roach just say last week that Pacquiao did not want to fight Mayweather in march?

no you are not. Roach thinks that he is slick. He said this in an espn article PRE-NEGOTATIONS...

"May or June, in that ballpark," Roach said about when he thought the fight should happen. "March may be too close to get a big fight like that going. I'd like to see Manny take a rest and then get into it. We'll have a change in sparring partners and style because Mayweather is so different than our last four opponents [Cotto, Ricky Hatton, De La Hoya and David Diaz]. We have to study him really hard. But I know Mayweather really well. I just need Manny to see what I see

This is just ******. Winning this fight would mean nothing for pacquiao, how does this make sense at all? Someone needs to explain to Pac that belts really don't mean anything anymore. This guy will only fight a few more times and there are several very interesting fights that could be made. He's really going to waste one of his last fights on Foreman? Do they really think they are going to get people to pay 49.95?

fighting spinks would have been better than fighting marquez.

of course you say it now you wasn't sayin that **** before

[GameBullDawg]

thats a good point Roach did say March was to soon for them to fight Floyd and that they needed more time to prepare for him now he tryna flip it and make it seem like Floyd is ducking them

Well , lets see if Mayweather will man up now and take the fight in March, LOL, he won't !!! He will take on Matthew , and Yall know it !

[17gogetit]

That said I'm assuming this just a negotiating ploy for Mayweather, and I don't expect it to be the last from wither camp.
