Freddie Roach, trainer of Manny Pacquiao, agrees with Top Rank's Bob Arum on the workrate factor. He says Pacquiao's workrate will be the key to victory against foprmer welterweight champion Joshua Clottey on March 13 at Cowboys Stadium in Texas. He doesn't think Clottey is active enough. Clottey's activity was an issue in his fight against Miguel Cotto. He had Cotto in a lot of trouble during the fight; yet he let the win get away by not throwing enough in the final few rounds.

(Yawn)...does anyone have an update on the Floyd/Shane negotiations?
You guys all realize that clottey would possibly beat mosley. he did better against cotto than mosley did. clottey is not a B fighter. mosley lost to winky , forrest and cotto. all very good opponents, but if floyd is really supposed to be a p4p best than he should outbox him like those guys did.
clottey is a B fighter....
he did better against a "different" version of cotto than the one mosley fought. not to mention, styles make fights, and mosley and clottey have vastly different styles.
....and floyd will outbox shane, easily. especially if cotto was able to do so.
Omg u guys r smashing PAC like this he's problem h didn't fight mosley look by the time mosley wanted to fight PAC he had already singned a fight wit cotto and after all cotto beat mosley and I know margerito beat cotto and mosley beat tony but that's boxing styles makes fights mosley doesn't have the same workrate as PAC in the cotto fight and that's why cotto won and PAC is a guy who throws lots of power punches and that's why cotto got stoped and stop saying cotto is shot ok this ridiculous the guys 29 years old yes he was in a war wit clottey but he's eye got badly cut in the beginingof those early rounds and he couldn't even see those punches coming but anyways who has looked good wining against clottey anyways clottey won all the rounds wit margerito until he's left hand broke and after that he couldn't throw punches and still margerito couldn't hurt him nobody ever has he's a very tough guy to fight...and yes M v M will do better in PPV than P v C heyy what u ecxpect mosley is a bigger name than clottey and stop ripping on PAC he has to fight who's who he can fight only one fighter at a time this ain't a bruse lee movie!!! and remember he's the one coming up in weight to fight all the WW out there!!! But anyways if M v M happens I'm sure it will look for floyd to win by decision and box shane for 12 rounds unless shane catches him wit somthing crazy heyyy this is boxing after all shane is very dangerous but floyd has better skillz overall and a big step up for floyd since he has still not fought a ligit WW but still mosley the #1 WW in the world!!!
Pacroids work rate will get clottey. the fight im looking forward to is Mayweather vs Mosley, thats should be more competitive and gets ur moneys worth.
It will not be competitive.
If it's a closed one and so if Mosley lands decently,he will hurt and probably knock out Floyd,I'm not sayin Floyd is chinny,I'm just saying he ain't Margo chinned and Mosley hits that hard.
If it's competitive,like Money's fights with Judah and Castillo,yeah,I think Floyd is goin to be hurt bad at the point to get dropped and aired out.Mosley ain't Castillo or Zab.
So,Floyd has to totally outbox Shane.
Hell yeah he can do that.
People sleep to much on Clottey.
"Pacroids" is useless.
Are you a boxing fan??A boxing fan don't call a boxing star roidsboy when he never get caught by cops or agencies....
What's the problem with that lil humble pinoy doing his way??
He didn't agreed to every Lord Floyd requests??
He took his P4P spot??
destined to be the greatest asian fighter,maybe.i hope u do not mean the greatest because comments like that will make you sound very foolish and only confirm that u dont know boxing only manny pac.
Boxingfan76??
Are you obsessed by Pacquiao???
Are you conscious you are Pacquiao number one hater???Why hating on that lil big dude??It ain't the tests,you were hatin him before.
Before everyone celebrates about Floydie vs Sugaroid...
Wait til the contract is signed and they already agreed to everything.
Besides, it won't be happening on March 13... they are talking about the month of May.
Let's just wait for another out of this world demand from Floydie to avoid Sugaroid... Hahahaha! How old is Sugaroid now? 38, 39 years old? Hmmm... so, who is fighting old boxers now?
Hahahaha!
Shane is still a live wire and is tougher than all of Pacquiao's previous
opponents even Cotto who was a done deal bout time Pac got him
because of his lack of a proper trainer and corner. Mosley annihilated
Margarito and I think would do it with or without plaster because
Mrgarito is so easy to outbox with a good strategy and or game plan.
Arum and Roach are basically saying "Look we know who is going to
win" so in actuality, Pacquiao is doing what his fans and supporters
and many others accuse Mayweather of doing and that is picking
on guys who he knows he can beat. Can't use the excuse that
Clottey is a tough opponent for Pac anymore because Arum and
Roach don't even believe it. I don't think Pac would EVER step in
the ring with Mosley because for 1, Pac said it himself and 2, I saw
an interview where Roach stuttered his ass off when he was asked
about Pac fighting Mosley. Don't know why people give Floyd so
much **** about fighting Mosley when atleast he tried before and
is working towards it now and Pac NEVER did and perhaps NEVER
will.
