Comments Thread For: Roach: "Khan The Next Star; Vanes Will Beat Miguel Cotto!

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Trainer Freddie Roach has high hopes for two of his newest pupils, WBA junior welterweight champion Amir Khan and unbeaten junior middleweight Vanes Martirosyan. Roach tells The Philippine Star that Khan has the best potential out of his stable of fighters to become the next superstar in boxing. He says Top Rank is positioning Vanes to eventually face WBA 154-pound champion Miguel Cotto. Among Roach's prospects, he says Jose Benavides is the best of the bunch. [Click Here To Read More]

Why do they continue talking about Vanes fighting Cotto?.. Cotto already shot that **** down.. move on Vanes..

[SmoothMon]

He doesnt take fights he doesnt think his fighters can win.. That explains why Manny never fought Mosley! Thanks for clearing that up Roach, youre the cherry picker not Pac.

I am pretty high on benavidez and khan.Vanes dont interest me at all.
Anybody can beat him imo.

[Rome-By-Ko]

Not if Khan gets his head blown off by a Maidana right hand...I like Vanes,he is willing to fight anybody..I see Angulo stopping Vanes,I would like to see Vanes fight Latimore..

[Cotto 54/10]

There's no way Cotto would lose to Vanes.

Roach dissed Cotto every chance He has. His opinion is bias against Cotto and apparently against most Puerto Rican boxers if not all.
Bottom line is that if Cotto was so bad, He wouldn't demand to fight him at 145 to TAKE SOME OUT OF HIM.
Roach is a Cucaracha in the Island. (literally :-)

What do you expect Roach to say that Vanes is going to get his ass knocked out?

[STRUGG]

roach is a fool........if he thinks vanes has a shot against Cotto...............

[Machingo69]

I do agree that Roach is bias against Cotto and Puerto Rican boxers cause the Puerto Rican boxers are the only ones that manage to beat some of the boxers in his stable. I remember when he was saying that Bernabe Concepcion was going to beat Juanma and we all saw what happened in that fight..... Don't get me wrong, Vanes has a punchers chance but Cotto is just too smart and strategic to get caught.... Roach could suck my diccckkkkk.
