Comments Thread For: Bradley, Berto, Khan: Roach Eyes Pacquiao's Army

[BillyBoxing]

Good line of sparring partners, none of them can emulate Mayweather's counter and defense ability, but they are all very quick. Berto has a pretty good right hand too, so Pacquiao can at least prepare for that.

Berto has a lazer right hand,a big right uppercut,a fast jab,and a good left hook.
Berto would prepare Manny for PBF offense,athleticity,Guzman for the style,tricks,defense.

Berto has no good D so he troubles with higher workrate taller guys like Collazo,but Manny is shorter than Berto and will have to step in the fire zone,I have Berto giving big troubles to Manny's defense with lazer right hands,right uppercuts,left hooks,but gettin hit as well and eventually dropped.
**** those sparring sessions would be explosive.

Stevie Forbes would be the perfect sparring Partner, but i doubt he would agree because of ties with Roger. Bradley is great to give PacMan looks at quickness and movement but Mayweather would never throw as many punches or leave his Chin Out either. Not many fighters Can fight Mayweathers style and also be as successfull so Roach may have to go with UNknown Sparring Partners to Help PacMan fight the Elusive and accurate Mayweahter.

Good picks.

Bradley, has an incredible work ethic on fighting in the inside, something which Floyd does refered to as "in the pocket"

Khan, very fast on his feet and hands.

As for Berto? fast right hand, jab, left hook, fast feet, and clinching.

Good picks by Roach.

Good picks???

What about the D??

Bradleys defense is his workrate,Bertos defense is his speed,Khans defense is a tight european one.

GUZMAN,GUZMAN,GUZMAN!!!!!
At least Forbes,but Forby has the style but really sucks,my girlfriend is more athletic.lol

pretty good sparring partners--but they have to emulate floyd's stance and upperbody movement from his stance--and that's really hard because they don't have his smooth balance---nor do they have his counterpunching ability with either hand---they are fast fighters though---but floyd just has too many moves in his arsenal---and somebody better know how to throw counterpunches after blocking pacman's punches--coz if not---pac is getting caught early and the fight won't last long at all---either way--floyd tko's pac by round 8---

First off as a BLACK MAN!!! Let me say this...YOU tell me that a Black Man is gonna help a OTHER in a SITUATION that has so much racial over tones in it.....

Bradley = Next Black Champion to break out @ 140 Pac-Man will not fight him even though Bradley wants Amir Khan & Manny Pacman as future fights, Cut my own throat for what so your Rascit Trainer Joke Roach Can steal my Blue Print and take away Millions of Dollars from me by being your sparring Partner and have the Black Folks mad at me for helping the OTHERS!!!!

Judah= Let me get another Black guy who we will not let Fight Amir or MAnny but we will spar.

Berto= Another Black man whom we will not fight Amir or Manny but we will spar?


Brothers on the board I know damn well I am not the only one to see this crap, To me it is a BLACK thang, You cant beat us in the ring, you will not fight us in the ring, but hold on...Hold up.... You want me to place my CAREER in the DOG Eater & The Cripple hands?

Why would I spar with you when I want to fight you & your buddy Amir, Things that make you go HMMMMMM!!!!!!!

So you want to kill the division and get an upper hand on 4-5 Black fighters off of 1 fight for a couple thousand in sparring when fighting you would generate them MILLIONS!!!

Man that Crippled Caucasion done lost his damn mind....Roach Slavery & All that other Crap that Whites used to get away with has long ended you had 1 Uncle Tom in your Camp last time

Real Black Men see through you and I cant wait till they Cross you out & place that K on Pac-Man head......

If you board members dont see through this for what it is then yall lost in the sauce for real......Black Men dont fall for the OAKEY DOAK KEEP IT REAL THESE SALTINES WILL TRY ANYTHING I SEE

REST IN PISS= Pac-Man,ROACH, AMIR KHAN & That GYm you call a WILD CARD, BURN IN HELL

"First off as a BLACK MAN!!! Let me say this...YOU tell me that a Black Man is gonna help a OTHER in a SITUATION that has so much racial over tones in it....."
****,man,you are goin to be red K all over the place.

It's a sport,and I think you are the only who see that **** as a racial affair.

Bradley will get a lot of money and learn a lot if he's in manny camp for this fight.It's not helpin Manny,it's business,period.

I DONT THINK ROACH AND MANNY DUCKS BLACK FIGHTERS BECAUSE THEY ARE FIGHTING THE BEST BLACK FIGHTER OF THE LAST DECADE.


"Man that Crippled Caucasion done lost his damn mind....Roach Slavery & All that other Crap that Whites used to get away with has long ended you had 1 Uncle Tom in your Camp last time"

Clinching, foot movement are their defense, and floyd does some of it.

Now of course none of them are close to mayweather, but it's somewhat and you have to work with what you got.

I still think Mayweather takes it.

Roach should bring in James Toney to spar with Manny for a round or two. He might be the only active fighter who uses the Philly shell as well as Mayweather.

I've always thought this was a great idea... either that or roach's 2nd man in the corner like with Moorer..

Manny Pacquiao's trainer Freddie Roach is trying to put together a dream team of sparring partners for the big fight against Floyd Mayweather Jr. on March 13. Roach wants to recruit quick-fisted boxers with boxing ability to assist Pacquiao with his first defense of the WBO welterweight title. Last week Roach mentioned WBA junior welterweight Amir Khan as a sure sparring partner to help them in camp. If Andre Berto doesn't get injured in his January unification with Shane Mosley, Roach would like to add him to camp. During a conversation with philboxing.com, Roach added WBC junior welteweight champion Timothy Bradley on the sparring partner list. [Click Here To Read More]

That shoulder roll isnt a great idea because both Toney & Moore are Southpaws and Floyd wont use the shoulder roll hardly any in this fight. I too think Roach should use Forbes and I think Forbes would do it. He dont care about what Floyd says, e****ally after he told Roger not to train him for the Oscar fight. If they offer him good money then he will take it.

Its cool that Roach is trying to bring out the big guns for this fight. He knows that he's up against it. I like Floyd bringing in Zab also and no one talks about this other kid but I like Lattimore and I think he would be a good partner for Floyd with the way he lets his hands go, his power, and speed. Not to mention he has the added size to make him perfect for sparring.

I disagree with what you guys said abot Mosley-Berto. Im a Floyd fan and I serioustly think Berto can win although I favore Mosley due to the trainers. However, Ive said a million times that I want Mosley to win by brutal KO because I know people will say what you guys just said. Floyd's team already said if the Pac fight didnt go through then they want Mosley but no one will give him credit for that since they hate Floyd so much. If Berto wins and Floyd fights him then people will try to down it and if Mosley "barely" wins and then Floyd fights him then people will try to say that he's only fighting him because he looks old & vulnerable when really Floyd already said that he would. Thats why I want Mosley to look great and win by brutal KO so that Floyd can fight him and get full credit from the critics
