Comments Thread For: Pacquiao-Valero is what I want, Not Margarito: Says Roach

[War Dinamita]

Dunno, why don't you ask floyd that question? Don't bring up him taking on mosley, he got cornered like a rat into fighting him.

you guys give pac flak for mentioning valero, how about friggin matthew hatton or saul alvarez for floyd, you know he would'vetaken those if he weren't ridiculed.

If pac ends up fighting valero, thats a tune up for him, just like clottey was. Floyd, let's see if he stops making excuses.

When the **** did Floyd say he wants to fight Hatton and Alvarez?

[jrosales13]

this is true.valero has fought no one alexander made witter quit and knocked out urango.if alexander is hype than what does that make valero?

Valero is hype too and I am a Valero fan. Like the 100 % ko ratio is the main factor of his hype. But, that power is for real. He is P4P the hardest hitter in the sport right now. Is he overhype? Sure, is his power overhyped? No.

Yea Alexander beat Witter and Corley. But, in your opinion wasn't Witter and Corley shot by the time Alexander beat them? You have to admit that Corley at least was. And, even if you don't think Witter was shot you have to admit hee was past his best right?

Urango KO was good. But, to be real Alexander didn't look spectacular until that KO happen. And, if you really watched that fight closely you wold see a slow Urango was clossing the gap pretty quickly against Alexander in a few occasions.

My point is that Alexander not ready right now. I think a few people are overhyping him cuz of the KO to Urango. I think Alexander needs more time to develop. I don't think he is ready. I think he can get better and then fight Pac. Bradley is the toughest option here hands down. But, really Valero and Alexander are not that far off with each other. They really don't have a chance in beating Pac. But, Valero with his one punch KO power does have a puncher chance against Pac. Alexander doesn't. and Deven could seriously get ruined in that fight. Valero has a better chance in winning, is a bigger money fight, and is a more exciting fight. But, it should happen at 140 anything higher is no good.

So like right now I would say the options I would like to see for Pac to fight next in this order is Shane-Floyd winner at 147> Shane-Floyd loser at 147>Bradley at 140>JMM at 135>Valero>140>Forman if he beats Cotto at 154> Berto if he beats Quintana at 147> Alexander at 140> Margarito at 147.

When is Roach going to stop cherry picking? Valero hasn't done **** to deserve a fight against the #1 p4p fighter in the world. Roach should be focus on Mayweather.

Mayweather has cherry picked his entire career...

Mayweather has cherry picked his entire career...

Both fighters have cherry picked in their careers. They take the safe fight they know they can win. I have said this before.

Like I mentioned, running out of flatfooted in ww division the remaining contenders are far dangerous from the last 2 fights of Pac. The unstoppable typoon is changing course again! Anyways, Devon Alexander seems acceptable at at light ww lbs....... Pac is exciting to watch and he's really explosive right now! but I think fans love to see him fight someone with different stlyle, one that not just block punches but knows how to avoid punches and can move side to side as well like what he's doing right now.....at least that's fair. The last 2 actually are predictable punching bags susceptible to his style.

By the way, every pound over the light welterweight limit should be fine $ 10M/lb. hahaha LOL....

Like the order of your options J. Only thing I don't want to see pac fight is the Yuri fight. Not even remotely interested even for a 154 belt.

valero is for boxing as kimbo slice is for mma

You don't like Yuri style? Or do you think he is not good enough?

And, what would rather see Margarito or Foreman?

Not even close dude. Kimbo Slice hasn't proven anything.

[Emon723]

you know bradley and alexander are undefeated to

But its a high risk, low reward for Pacman to faced those guys, I mean Bradley, Alexander and Amir Khan could fight each other to gain notice, what would Pacquiao gain for beating them, Valero is being hype by Top Rank the same way they did to Manny thats why Pac was able to get the household names (DLH, Hatton and Cotto)
