    Roach Contradicting Himself...

    Wait a minute!!!

    Didn't Roach, after the Pacquiao Cotto fight, state that Manny
    would NOT go up higher in weight?

    That Manny was struggling to make the lower weights and that welter weight was his best weight?

    I couldn't find the post fight interview, but I know that's what he stated.

    Tell me anyone in the history of Boxing that has stuck by their word on anything lol.

    This is all smoke screens to try and seal the deal for Floyd vs Pacquiao.

        if floyd continues to be unreasonable w/ the purse, pac cherrypicking a belt at 154 would still be an histotic title in an 8th division

            That would be stretching it a bit to say nobody sticks by their word.

            I wouldn't doubt the smoke screens, but Freddie's current statements are being scrutinized when put up against his previous statements.

              Not a historic win, but it's historic in general for the fact that it will be yet another step up from the record he already broke.

                Yea, but that comes with the territory. Roach is under the microscope for everything he says now being his fighter is the #1 fighter in the world. That's why I take everything people say with a grain of salt.

                Look how many people on here last year thought Pac vs Hatton was going to get scrapped because of Manny's election with people genuinely believing it.

                Nobody knows what's really going on unless you're GBP, Top Rank, Pac or Floyd's team.

                  I think its bull**** to make Cotto weigh 145 Pounds...

                  Yet in your next fight you move up to 154.......

                  WTF??

                    EXACTLY. That's a double contradiction.

                    A little play on words, perhaps?
