Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Will Fight Mayweather-Mosley Winner, Says Roach

[Boss Don]

2lbs referring to a guy who had been a natural welterweight for a few years, versus marquez...who was a lightweight only a few months before that...do you really not recognize the difference when you view it in context?

So Floyd is to big for Marquez but not to big for Pacquiao?

[Sugar Q]

Ok if weight classes are so important then how is Pacquiao the champion of a weight he never even fought at?

How can you say two pounds made a difference when Mayweather fought Marquez but it didn't when Pacquiao fought Cotto? Please let me know

Excellent point cause if your gonna say 2 pounds made a difference in PBF/Marquez then it also made a difference in Cotto/Pac. Although I believe in Cotto Pac it made a psychological difference but mainly good management would've made Cotto take the rest of the year off and brought in a new trainer.

[QUOTE=smoothrider;7421256]

good try player, but not quite good enough . but i give you and a for effort. but when its said and done, the Catch weight champ does'nt measure up

Not according to educated/professional journalists (who I lend more credibility to)...BWAA mean anything to you?

[Cash Cow]

Well here are some facts for you.

Fact! Cotto was offered to fight Mayweather and his uncle said he was not ready. This was when both fighters where at 140 lbs and when they where at 147

FACT CHECK: OF COURSE HE WASN'T READY, WHICH IS WHY FLOYD WANTED IT THEN. TWO--FLOYD NEVER MENTIONED COTTO'S NAME WHEN HE BECAME SUCCESSFUL AT WELTERWEIGHT.

Fact! Bob Arum has avoided sending any of his welters after Mayweather

YOU'RE RIGHT AND THAT HAS MORE TO DO WITH KEEPING THE MONEY IN-HOUSE.

Fact! Floyd's 2nd and third fight at welter he came into the ring at 147 and 148 the night of the fight against the number 2 welter Zab Judah and the number 1 welter Carlos Baldimir, who regardless of what YOU may think where the Undisputed and former Undisputed welterwight champions of the WORLD the whole world Craig the whole world.

FACT CHECK: JUDAH ALSO HADN'T GROWN INTO A REAL WELTERWEIGHT AND ADD TO THAT HIS PROPENSITY FOR BEING A TALENTED, UNDERACHIEVING HEADCASE AND WITH A MEDIOCRE RECORD AT WELTERWEIGHT SPEAKS VOLUMES. BALDOMIR GOT LUCKY...END OF STORY.

damn man you sound dumb...

#1 Cotto, Hatton & Mayweather were ALL champs @140lbs....Arum & Hattons dad wanted nothing to do with Mayweather

#2 You saying Zab wasnt a full fledged WW is absurd, he had 6 fights @ WW & was the undisputed WW champ..Mayweather had only 1 @ Zab has more fights @140lbs than Floyd did

#3 Mayweather didnt win any of this WW titles...at a catchweight

#4 The belt that Pac took from Cotto was just a vacant belt that Cotto won

Cotto HAS NEVER Beat a welterweight champion for any of his titles

So Floyd is to big for Marquez but not to big for Pacquiao?

You'd have to pose that question to Floyd, since he was the one who imposed an exit strategy.

[Sugar Q]

Pacquiao and his entire team are so full of ****.

Brian Kenny should have really drilled Pacquiao on this issue like he would have if it were Floyd on the other end of that interview.

There is no excuse for a professional athlete at the top of his game to refuse stricter drug testing...well, there is ONE..

Very true there is definitely preferential treatment for whatever sick reason. Let Floyd refuse testing and see how the world would react it would be on primetime news. The **** they get away with is unbelievable.

Is intelligence your kryptonite? Because then I could see how you perceive my comments as being dumb...by the way that was meant for you to read into.

Manny Pacquiao
height 5′ 6½″ / 169cm
reach 67″ / 170cm

Juan Manuel Marquez

height 5′ 7″ / 170cm
reach 67″ / 170cm

so um actually Marquez appears to be bigger than Pacquiao...Pac Tards fail all the time. They let their personal feelings, emotions and national heritage get in the way of logic

Switch you seem like a somewhat intelligent guy but this is like defending Charles Manson, it can't be defended. There's no defense for Pacroid not being willing to submit to random testing. By Mosley coming forward and saying he wants to prove to everyone he's clean Pacroid has absolutely no recourse but to come clean or retire. He's no different than and other athlete. Certainly not bigger than boxing. Someone needs to sit him down and tell him that. He's not even the biggest draw in boxing.
