Comments Thread For: Roach Says: 'Mayweather Doesn't Have His Legs Anymore'

[odogg8121]

impossible..cotto cant hurt pac so theirs no reason floyd can hurt pac..

Floyd stunned Shane a couple times and Shane has never been KOed, unlike Pac. Counter punches make the opponent stop throwing, until Pac is hit with counters every time he comes in, you don’t know what he'll do against May. Everyone says the same stuff about this guy, I'll do this different I'll do that, what people go realize; is Floyd can adapt to any style to you throw at him and make you fight his fight, when/if this fight happens how ever many points i have at that time I will bet you that Manny wont throw more than 50 punches per round and he wont land more than 12.

i get what you are saying. So manny will follow the commission rules when it comes to drug testing but manny will not follow the rules of the commission when it comes to weight penalties.

Why is the drug testing rules of the commission good enough for manny but the weight penalty rules? Both are in place either you abide by the commission rules or you don't!!

great logic!!!!!!!

Floyd won't need his legs against Pac neither, he'll stand toe to toe with him too and walk him down and take him out in the later rounds...Roach has a mouth as big as Mayweathers lol

yeah right .... Pac throws a **** load of punches ...

Mayweather can counter 1-2 punch combos ...

But Pacquiao has 3-5 punch combos ...

Even if Mayweather counterpunches Pac...Pac has a chin as well and he can throw after getting tagged as well

this fight will have action

Sounds like a bunch of excuses to me. Didn't everyone say the
same about Zab gassing? and De La Hoya couldn't pull the trigger
with the jab anymore? How many fighters are going to gas or stop
pulling the trigger on purpose when fighting Floyd? Doesn't that
seem quite odd? Or could it be that Floyd does that to them by
making them pay and neutralizing their pros and turning them to
cons. Give Floyd his props and stop with the nonsense because
you were one of the main ones jumping down everyones throat
whenever they said Mosley had no chance or would lose. Right
or wrong?

zab went adhd like he always does, always been a 6 round fighter no matter how you cut it.
dlh quit throwing the jab because floyd took it away with movement and timing.
shane gassed during round three and looked like he was going to die by the 7th round

is that because he was getting battered in rounds 3,4,5,6?

be honest

has nothing to do with excuses or nonsense.

i gave floyd props for dominating, but dont act like shane looked like shane

when freddie notices a flaw in a fighter/opponent, he tends to be right. maybe floyd really doesn't have his legs anymore.

If his legs are gone, what are everyone elses legs? I still see him having the best footwork and coordination in the division. And that Shane's old **** is garbage. I like Shane and he did what anyone who knows boxing knew what he was going to do. He got off early in the center of the ring (where everyone else does) and got his ass kicked for the rest of the fight. Its no shame in it, but I was on here preaching Shane couldn't win this fight if it went past 4. He never, for the life of him could stop straight accurate punches. Freddy's blowing smoke. Pacs a much better boxer than he gets credit for, but to discredit a great win against a man you flat out refused to fight is disrespectful.

I hope Roach actually believes that because it'll only play into Floyd's hands. You honestly think a fighter who doesn't have his legs anymore can break with a left hook like that? trust me if you can lunge from 3 feet out with a lead left hook n close the distance that quickly 4 or 5 times each round then you got your legs lol. When Ali lost his legs he was outa shape n wasn't even training, Floyd takes no punishment n trains harder than he used to....Freddie's either trying to play mind games or he's actually wrong on his observation n Pacquiao will pay for it.

[kingfaze19]

so when he uses footwork "he runs too much"
and when he stands and trades "he doesnt have his legs anymore"

roach is talkin about...nothing. just last year in the marquez fight floyd showed his outstanding foot movement, he just wanted to shut everybody up and beat shane at his game, he didnt run and beat his azz.

mayweather will pound on pacquiao, and make roach throw in the towel.

[etlux]

Trainer Freddie Roach, speaking with ESPN radio affiliate 790TheZone, is under the impression that Floyd Mayweather Jr. is no longer the same fighter. Roach watched Mayweather's dominating decision win over Shane Mosley from last Saturday in Las Vegas. He watched close and thinks Mayweather fought in a different style because his legs are no longer there. Roach doesn't think Mayweather can move around the ring like he used to a few years ago.

oh ok so that's why roach wants floyd now. notice roach only fights fighters that are shot. as soon as he said "oscar is shot" that's when pac fought him, same with ricky and cotto and now with floyd too.

shane didnt look like shane becuz floyd is not margarito, a zombie punching bag. and you are giving excuses by saying "shane wasnt shane" and all that other stuff, you take away credit from the fact that floyd shut him down period.
when pacquiao beat de la hoya, did anyone even noticed or mention how oscar looked like an ethiopian crackhead that night? no. all you heard was how great pacquiao was, he always gets credit, floyd doesnt.

[Chief2ndzOnly!]

Really.. who are you training? Is he a pro? what's his name?

Or what's your real name? Are you Pro?

Are you better than Roach?

Sorry potna Jtiger is right. You do know that Ishe Smith visits the boards every now and then right????????
