Pacquiao's Secret New Technique
Remember that new technique Pacquiao said he'd roll out against Clottey? Don't remember seeing anything all that new? It's because he didn't use it. Says Roach:
"The plan was that Manny would throw a one-two and then step backward as if he were trying to get out. We knew that would bring Clottey in, and the instant Manny saw him start to throw his jab he was supposed to catch him with a hook on top of it."
Only Clottey never reacted as expected. Roach thinks a Ghanaian sparring partner of Pacquiao's may have snitched to Clottey, who's from Ghana, about what was coming.
