Freddie Roach: "It has to be a special 36 minutes from Manny. We have to fight the perfect fight."

Well he couldn't find out a plan for De La Hoya. This man needs to stop changing his damn mind.

Well, he got a split, which is the closest anyone has ever gotten to beating Floyd. And he got that with an old man in ODLH.

Well a win is a win. De La Hoya even said in the 24/7 vs Pac that it wasn't the right game plan for Floyd.

He's easy? Prove it.

Mayweather would be easy
Roach predicts KO win for Manny

Floyd Mayweather is going to be easy pickings for Manny Pacquiao, the Filipino fighter’s trainer Freddie Roach said Saturday from Los Angeles.

“Easy (fight),” Roach said when asked about what he sees in his crystal ball once Pacquiao and Mayweather finally get it on. “Manny’s going to knock him out.”

Roach kept on saying “easy” during the course of the long-distance interview, sounding supremely confident that Pacquiao would hardly encounter any problem cracking Mayweather, a puzzle that has remained unsolved after over 40 fights the last 14 years.

“He couldn’t move, he’s got no more legs,” Roach observed, citing that Mayweather was no longer as nimble as he used to be.

But to a lot of ringsiders, Mayweather was magnificent in his latest outing – a masterful 12-round unanimous decision victory over Shane Mosley – a win that propelled the trash-talking Detroit native back on top of the pound-for-pound rankings.

Even oddsmakers have installed Mayweather as the favorite against Pacquiao in the event the two premier punchers face off before the year comes to a close.

Sportsbook lists Mayweather as -150, while Pacquiao is +120.

Under this scheme, a $150 bet on Mayweather wins $100, while a $100 bet on Pacquiao wins $120. Still, Roach is convinced there’s no way Mayweather – based on his latest performance –would pose problems for somebody like Pacquiao.

“Manny’s going to hit him from every angle,” said Roach.

Once again, Roach couldn’t help but utter the word that kept on hovering during the conversation.

seriously **** freddy roach lol. If he think its going to be that easy then take the ****ing tests.

roach knows it wont be easy

but you know what ? who knows.
what happens if roger goes to prison and mayweather snr trains floyd ?

I feel this fight would be the biggest challenge of Floyds career, and the biggest for Paq in a long time, not saying that Paq has ever fought a better fighter than Floyd (he hasnt), but some of Paq's early fights may have been a bigger challenge for him because he was one dimensional until a few years ago. Roach did say last fall when the talk of this fight was rampant that as a trainer Floyd would be the biggest challenge of his career, and it will be. PLEASE LET THIS FIGHT HAPPEN. How long has it been since the top two P4P fighters in the world were in the same damn weight division? They gotta fight.

Im sure some people are. Anyone tired of hearing the Mayweathers run theirs? But, both Roach and the Mayweathers seem able to back it up.
