Comments Thread For: Roach: First Manny Knocks Mayweather Out, Then Marquez

[Clint650]

Doubt that, but unlike Mayweather's catch weight of 146 lbs, I think they'd do it at 140 to at least give him a chance.

nope. Manny will never go down to 140 because, if he does, Bradley and Alexander are the best at the weight, and to fight Marquez @ 140 would send a message to the top jr welters that Manny is campaining there. they will most likely make Marquez fight @ 147.

i dont want to see Pac fight another fighter who
a) just lost
b) has been knocked out within the last couple of years
c) anyone named Cotto, Mosley, or Margarito

LOL I thought Roach said he was gonna stay shut? That didn't last very long...

Pac isn't getting below 140 in my opinion, and even if the fight with Marquez were to come off he wouldn't be given any credit by the majority of fans, at least on this site. If he fights Marquez they'll just say he should have fought Bradley. If he fights Bradley they say he just should have fought Alexander. If and when he finally does lose they'll just say "I told you so".

I agree, but if you are really being honest with yourself you should also agree with this.

May isn't getting below 140 in my opinion, and even if the fight with Pacquiao were to come off he wouldn't be given any credit by the majority of fans, at least on this site. If he fights Pacquiao they'll just say he should have fought Cotto, Margarito, Williams, Martinez, etc.. If he fights Cotto, Margarito, Williams, Martinez, etc. they say he just should have fought someone else from the list. If and when he finally does lose they'll just say "I told you so".

my beef is manny holds the title at 140! so why is there no uproar that manny is not having tremdous fights at 140? once again manny is not fighting the best opposition in his wt class and getting away with it. floyd gets criticized all the time for not fighting this guy or that guy. while manny ducks the best and gets away with it. in fact he receives awards for not fighting anybody worthy. as the champ at 140 pac should be talking about fighting bradley or alexander. who can disagree?

well i for one would love to see pac fight shane. he shamlesly ducked shane for years. i think is about time he faced shane or bradley or alexander. the public should be in an uproar about his lack of a real challenger.

it seems as if the gag order isnt working. every day i hear something from the both the pacman & floyd side.

mmmm hmmmmmmmm this will stay untouched and if there is an excuse it will be well down the road or after it builds Tim bradley has made that a reasonable excuse now.

Manny Pacquiao beat Juan Manuel Marquez easy. Pacquiao knocks Marquez cold out right now. Pacquiao knocking Mayweather out isn't happening. Pacquiao can beat Mayweather that wouldn't surprise me BUT I don't see that happening. Mayweather beats Pacquiao in a boring fashion.
