By Dave Lahr: I never thought I’d see the day when Freddie Roach would come clean about his fighter Manny Pacquiao not being ready to face Floyd Mayweather Jr. Well, here it is straight from the horse’s mouth in an article by Ronnie Nathanielsz at inquirer.net: Roach says “I would like to see him [speaking about Pacquiao] get a couple of more fights, then get Mayweather Jr., and get out of there.” There it is, folks. Roach is admitting that Pacquiao isn’t ready to face Mayweather Jr.
Let me translate what Roach appears to be say – Pacquiao needs to fight some more guys, because he’s not ready for a boxing demon like Mayweather. Oh, this is really bad. Roach still doesn’t think his fighter is ready after all this time. Okay that explains everything about why we haven’t seen a fight between Mayweather and Pacquiao yet.
If Pacquiao isn’t ready to face Mayweather after all this time, he surely wasn’t ready to face him earlier in the year when they were quibbling about not wanting to take random blood tests 14 days before the fight. What are we going to do about Roach and his lack of confidence in his boy Pacquiao. He’s got to take the training wheels off already. Pacquiao is a man, so send him out to his fate and let him take on Mayweather.
Who cares if Pacquiao gets destroyed Mayweather? It’s just a sport and that’s what it’s about. You have to compete against the best fighters and sometimes that means you get royally spanked. It’s better that Pacquiao get stripped clean by Mayweather rather than fighting all these ex-champions at catch weights. I’ve had it with watching Pacquiao beat up on guys that have already been beaten black and blue before Pacquiao has even fought them. Roach needs to send his boy Pacquiao so he can take on Mayweather, take his beating, and return as a man – a defeated, that is
The reason Roach wants the Floyd fight to be the last is simply because Floyd will dominate Pacquiao and possibly knock him out.After the Floyd fight Manny will not be the same so he would rather just retire
but wait! who is fighting in November and who is on semi retirement now? any news of floyd? people are waiting for him you know...
Floyd fans have never bought a Floyd PPV. They're all broke ****** people.
The Floyd-haters are the ones that buy Floyd's PPV's.
Exactly my friend!! Its all the haters that make up the PPV numbers.. Floyd only has about 200 fans world wide, im one of them! Its the hatred that brings in the numbers.. I recon 1,399,999 of the PPV buys for the Mosley fight were Pac fans hoping to see Floyd get KTFO..
