Comments Thread For: Mayweather-Pacquiao in October or November, Says Roach

[hedzion420]

IMHO, you need to get Pacman to respect your punches. Cotto and Clottey did hit him many times but did not stop Manny from coming in because he knows their punches did not really had him in trouble. Floyd will hit Manny at will but once Manny feels that he can take Floyd's punches, he would still go all out for 12 rounds and that is the best chance of Pacman of winning the fight because you can't beat Floyd if you fight a technical boxing match.

That said, thinking Floyd's legs are gone is just a hunch.

No proof.

And even though they're saying that, I bet they still offer some catch weight bull**** of 142lbs.

It has been said that he's a full-on WW now... Please don't spread any diarrhea ANUS...

I'm trying to see how Pacquiao could win this - and I do give him a chance. He's got the kind of power that, if landed more than once, could create serious trouble for Floyd. He's also a lefty with a good right hook (see: Mayweather-Corley; Mayweather-Judah rd 2) and a mean straight left. Great footwork and activity. Floyd Mayweather could conceivably upset all that with a good jab but some of those punches will get through--I guarantee it. And if it lands as clean as Mosley's two shots...oh my.

Still, I'm not quite convinced. And up until Roach's recent comments, it didn't sound like he himself was either. But maybe Saturday's fight has given them a glimmer of hope, one well worth the eight-figure payday. We shall see.

AGREE with Roach that PBF came to FIGHT!!!

Definately good news for Pac!!!

LET's hope there's not another EXCUSE not
to do the FIGHT LURKING!!!

Ill believe it when I see it..

Honestly guys like Morales and Pacquiao never get gun shy. If there was ever a boxer who would keep letting his hands go...it's Manny. Pac isn't judah, Mosley or any of Floyd's past opponents that when things aren't going there way they fold up. Go rewatch Morales vs Pac 1 and you will see that.

It's his PRIDE.

i can bet on it once this fight gets made Pac drops from a body shot and starts rolling in the ring like a stop,drop and roll demonstration..i like pac no doubt but he aint in my top five active i just dont get how this little dude get to demand everything in his fights if u wasnt ready for welterweight why come if u aint coming correct..Floyd always fought at the official weight for every belt

Any guy who claims to know boxing. Pac fan or not should be picking Floyd anything else is just dumb.

You are a very strange person man... I can't figure you out. You harp on great boxing, et your a Paul Williams fan.

Pac is a good boxer. He has great movement and great foot speed. Believe it or not, he has pretty good defense as well. Pac is a mid range fighter. Meaning, he is in range to connect with hooks, left crosses, etc. The twist side of it is that mid range puts him in power punching range of his opponents. YET HE IS ELUSIVE ENOUGH TO GET AWAY WITH IT. He slips a lot and blocks them with his hands. He is also devestating at countering jabs (watch the cotto fight). He just uses his skills different then FLoyd.

I don't understand why you don't like PAC's skills (especially if your a Paul Williams fan). They are both high output fighters with great power, and they bring the fight to their opponent. The only difference is Pacquiao is much more skilled as a boxer then Williams.

You must have issues with PAC for other reasons.... I guess

[SHOWTIME_11]

[DigitalBeast]
