Comments Thread For: Roach: We Want The Mayweather-Mosley Winner Next

[jtiger78]

ABSOLUTLEY!!!!!!! Floyd 1st said that Manny would not get a 50/50 spilt from him, we see that Floyd budged on that demand. Floyd also budged on the RANDOM(key word here is random, not "here is the cut off date", but random: meaning you dont know when they are coming, could be the day before the fight) blood and urine testing. He has already stated that there will be NO cut off date if they ever go back to the table. I do not see Floyd backing off of his stance now ESPECIALLY if he acquires a belt from Shane. Floyd has done his part to make the fight with Manny. That was the quickest I've ever seen Floyd agree to terms. Team Pac has now given every edge to Floyd in a future fight with Manny, and I mean EVERY possible edge you could give Floyd they gave him. They might as well not even fight Floyd because IMHO they have lost the fight in and out of the ring.

RIGHT ON BROTHER ON POINT!!!!

[check hook]

how do u know he got 40 mil for the mosley fight? amazing how u nuthug floyd that hard man.

he's taking prob 65% of the guaranteed money and most of the PPV money that is allocated to the fighters..........if this fight sells more than prob 1.8 million PPV's he will take home 40 mil.........

Shane's lawyer has already estimated he will take home 15 million after all revenue is in......

so again $40 mil is plausible.........if it does 3 million PPV buys like Schafer said (this won't happen, but lets pretend) Floyd will take home 60 million plus..........


so really he can and most prob will take home 30 - 40 million.........

the only way Pac can take home that much is if he fights Floyd full stop.......

Way to school him my dude. Cats kill me coming in here all uninformed.

[Rome-By-Ko]

The problem with that is Floyd doesn't have many historic challenges out there like SRL had. Ray had many career defining fights where right now there's only Shane, Pac and moving up in weight which would put him range and still not much reward for the risk. Even if he could beat Pavlik asking him to campaign at 160 would be crazy.

I'm going to show you how he could have done that made history and shut everybody up bear with me.I don't think nobody has a complaint about Floyd at lightweight.I alway's felt there was nobody for him at 140.Now is were it get's down to it.WW There was people he could have made he legacy look better with.Say what you want about uncle bob and they could not do bizzness.Floyd was a big enough name he could have made it happen.I'm not mad get your money fight Hoya(I give Floyd full credit for that fight)fight Hatton.Get your money but don't try to act like I'll list umm(chop chop,gatti,shamba,marquez,ndo,baldy,and Zab)is a creditable list.Mosley won a belt at ww what he did he fought the top guy in that div.He won the belt at jr mw what he do he fought the top guy in that div.Mayweather beat Zab what he do fight baldy a dude who was losing to clottey before the the d.q.Say what you will bout pac in the lighter div he fought the top guy's and all comer's.No.If after he fought Hoya and Hatton he fought a margacheato or a cotto he would not be taking as much heat as he does.NO?

Truth is Floyd had very good opponents at 130-135 but none besides Corrales were legendary. There was no Bramble, Mancini, Camacho, Rosario,etc. Then @140 (which I think was his best weight) he had some really good fights and called out Zu, Hatton and Cotto. You can't fought Floyd for those fights not happening. Only Zu would've been close to a legendary name. Then @147 if Zab wouldn't have loss to Zu the Baldy the fight would've been a superfight. My point is even if Floyd would've beaten Paul Williams, Cotto, Cheato, Shane and Pac @147 how can you compare that to Benitez, Duran and Hearns alone? Ray had a lot of legendary fighters that made him so great where Floyd's level of opposition is weak in comparison and Manny's career though impressive is more of the name game.

First dude corrales?(rip)He would not be going to the hof if he had not pass not a legendary.margacheato cotto shane pwill and pac are from this time this era.No matter what it would compare cause this is the time he is fighting in zab was already expose and everyone knew his m.o. already.His time for legacy was in the ww class just like hoya sugar ray leonerd did.margacheato cotto shane would have provide him with that legacy but he went a different route.Let me ask you this.You said there was no one for Floyd to fight that would have help his legacy right.With the exception of Hoya who has help his legacy in the past 5 yr's ?

I really wouldn't count it that way but let's hope you're right.

I tell you, lots of casual fans got turned off when the pac-floyd fight fell through.

And i can say for myself, i got turned off with floyd's last fight and i'm pretty sure i'm not alone thinking like that.

[ManniePhresh]

stop talking **** about how youll beat mayweathers ass but take accurate random blood testing. if you want the fight so badly you have to fight fair simple as that.

[big_james10]

Freddie Roach should shut the hell up. He will not fight the winner of the Mayweather/Mosley fight. He will fight the loser (Mosley) because Mosley is the only one who will allow Pacquaio to dictate the terms of the fight.

[big_james10]

Exactly Roach is not taking Clottey seriously thats why I see an upset happening this Saturday

Clottey by TKO in round 9!!!!
