Freddie Roach: Manny Pacquiao 'Really Wants to Knock Floyd Out'

[Bacatit]

Floyd is already winning

That's what people don't understand, this is mental chess. Team Mayweather began they're attack as soon as the possibility of the fight was announced. I believe Arum and Roach realized that fighting The Mayweathers was going to take a lot out of Manny mentally and I believe it already has fight or no fight.

Regardless of his political aspirations I think Manny is pretty naive/gullible. I don't think Manny is scared of Floyd at all but I think Roach/Arum are scared for him. Unlike Floyd Manny doesn't think his way to victory and he will rely on pointless flurries to bail him out of trouble and therfore fall right into the hands of Floyd. Roach knows Manny doesn't understand the gravity of the situation he would have gotten him self into had he fought Floyd.

I truly believe JMM did better than Manny will if he stops juicing for 14 days.

if he really wants to knock mayweather out that bad then it looks like mayweathers usual mind games of frustrating his opponants has already started.

have you read anything on why Victor Conte says gaps and windows are pointless? Have you done any research on PEDs?
Have you watched Mannys 4 fights before he fought Diaz? Have u been paying any attention at all or are you just along for the ride?

Then the offer of Mayweather jr is pointless. 14 days window is pointless

mayweather jr's offer is really ridiculous. He just wanted to disrupt pac's training.

thats a ridiculous post. JMM has never fought at welter and the two fights at lightweight he looked dodgy. Pac on the otherhand has improved since marquez. Jmm style is all wrong for Floyd. Jmm is a counterpuncher and not a natural agressor. Trying to standoff and box a master boxer like floyd is suicidal. Pac has all the tools to beat floyd. speed, power, stamina, punchoutput, southpaw. Floyd looks unbeatable when he dictates the pace of the fight but he wont have that against pac.
