Comments Thread For: Roach: "Pacquiao Wants Mayweather in The Worst Way"

[AllEyesOpen]

hey pacroach fight is only blood test away but ur baby is scared of needles

I wouldn't have put it so elequently, but yeah If Pac wanted the fight that much, he'd have handled it in the ring(not a courtroom), taken the test and chin checked Mayweather. Still would lose IMHO though.

Floyd was injured in that fight and it was still close but debatable.
How come people keep forgetting the immdediate rematch? When
Castillo weighed 147 at Light Weight to Floyd's 138 and Floyd beat
him convincingly. You should be asking yourself, how come Pacquiao
couldn't convincingly beat Marquez both times years apart with the
2nd win being VERY questionable.

give credit where its due no excuses jlc whupped that ass in the first fight.thats like when pac said his foot hurt when he lost to morales, then his latest excuse is he took a blood test b4 he lost to morales, excuses stink, the guy on that night was better plain and simple.

Floyd's Offense> Cotto's offense


Just because Cotto throws more punches, doesn't mean that he has more accuracy than Floyd.

I don't think it has anything to do with offense but more of a
technical thing. Cotto could not adjust in the middle of a fight
and would get discouraged whenever his power was not a
factor. On top of that, his defense was too holey. I think a
clear head and a good trainer would have made Cotto a much
better fighter. Cotto had all the tools to beat Pac but the mental
aspect of it and that's why Pac used his head to beat Cotto
mentally by letting Cotto hit on him and acting like it didn't hurt.
Cotto is a mental midget under adversity. Just look at the
Margarito fight. Cotto was the better fighter but his failure to
adjust or have a game plan for Margarito pressure style
cost him the fight aside from possible plaster which is not
certain. Cotto can't deal with pressure either. If Cotto
would have had a better team and corner his career wouldn't
be talked about as past tense.

i totally agree there cotto has no fortitude, the pac victory shouldnt be viewed as if it was something great it wasnt, if it were an undefeated cotto then maybe.....cotto was a shell of himself that much was clear b4 the pac fight.

Castillo got it in but you don't think the injury played a factor
in the 1st Castillo fight with Floyd? I think it did because the
2nd fight proved that Castillo (bigger) didn't have the style
to beat Mayweather because the rematch wasn't even close.
Pac has NO excuse in both JMM fights. My whole thing is,
why do people bring up the first Castillo fight with Floyd
and not bring up Pac fights with JMM? Considering Pac
didn't beat him convincingly twice.

if pacs soo toug why did hea barely get a ko in cotto in the 12th round after the guy was thouroughly destroyed by margs and a sound beating by clottey?? pac is very beatable dude, floyd will whip his ass garunteed, or mosley and maybe even margs, pac isnt as great as the media and u say he is,jmm that liteweight whipped pacs ass not once but twice according to most experts,so what does that say ???the compubox proves it look it up.

you are very unintelligent. no experts had marquez whipping pac's ass. at most you could have had jmm winning by 1 round in either fight. i thought pac one both but they were very close. they were fought at 130 which is a lot different than fighting jmm at 144 and missing weight and weighing 146. cotto has only been stopped twice both very late in the fight. margs could have had loaded gloves for all we know. pac dominated cotto a lot better better than margs and the only reason he didn't knock him out earlier is that cotto was running for the last 5 rounds.

cotto's offense ****s on floyd's.......period!

floyd had great offense at 135 i guess now we will have to wait til he brings our his a or b game to see... Since he says he wins with his c game

[boxingfan76]

i believe floyd has a lot of pride as does any fighter and naturally would say his hand is hurt, you know what in tough fights u can break a hand or worse.floyd did convingly win the second fight. as far as pac vs jmm goes, pac definitley lost both in my opinion and most experts, but telling anybody that on a ******* dominated site like this one, is pointless. at very best i can say for pac is he shouldve won the first fight based on the 3 knockdowns and he totally lost the second fight.one 3rd rnd knockdown doesnt make up for all those rnds he lost and the outconnects, jmm definitley won the 2nd bout.

....or go by the commision rules just like everyone else and make the fight...

“It does not make sense for this to become a commission matter,” Schaefer told Yahoo! Sports. “This is a contractual matter. The commission did not decide the weights or the purse split or how the foreign television rights would be sold.

i agree pac had very tough fights with jmm who was the p4p #2 fighter in the world when he was at superfeather and lightweight. castillo beat floyd in their first fight most boxing experts had castillio winning by a couple rounds. and jmm is a better fighter than castillo without a doubt. do not compare the two please.
