CHERRY PICKING with Freddie Roach - Video

[BlowMe!]

Roach is doing his job....he is protecting his fighter and maximising his chances of winning-----> this all equals more money....the end goal of everyone involved in the sport. Not going to begrudge a trainer for doing his job well (their is a reason he is in demand). However it would be nice if the ******ed fans on this board recognised that Manny's opponents were selected very carefully.

Hatton, ODLH, Cotto and Clottey are all left hand dominant fighters with 3 out of the 4 having slow feet and needing to set to throw. 2 out of the 4 fought at a catchweight. Again 2 out of the 4 had come off brutal losses, and in Cotto's case a brutal "win" over Clottey aswell.

Margarito coming off a long layoff and a brutal loss to SSM and also @ a catchweight, and again he has slow feet. Still IMO he is a bigger challenge to Manny than the 4 that preceeded him.

Margarito isn't coming off a long lay off, he just fought Garcia in May. A very undamaging fight - If anything, he's as fresh as can be for Nov. And to analyze further, the catchweight might be a plus for Margarito cuz we all know he's a natural welterweight, or at least has spent the better half of his career at welterweight. So he's making the transition down slowly after fighting Garcia at 154 - Pac has to come up, and use 10 oz gloves on top of that. People are really underrating this fight, it's going to be very entertaining.
But with all that said, any fight other than Pac vs Mayweather is quite frankly a disappointment.

Secondly, to the thread starter, this video is really irrelevant since they agreed to fight Mayweather at 147 in March...also Cotto beat Mosley, so your logic, still irrelevant (concerning Margarito). But I get what you're doing - don't worry, Mayweather ain't going to jail.
