Comments Thread For: Freddie Roach: Manny Pacquiao Can Beat Bernard Hopkins

[Chaos]

I don't have my scorecard in front of me, but I believe I had Calzaghe winning by 2 points (I score 10-10 rounds because I'm under no obligation not to). It was a close fight.

I can see how you'd give 10-10 rounds, it was an ugly fight, mainly due to Hopkins' tactics. Realistically though, with 10 point must, Calazghe won easily. Even with the flash push/kd it wasn't even close.

[LeadUppercut]

At 154, Pac beats the snot out of Hopkins

At 154, I beat the **** out of Hopkins, he would have nothing.

[WESS]

Just because one judge was blind doesn't make it a close fight. He lost a split on home turf, that's like Cal winning a shutout in europe.

o shyt a Calzaghe fan....

You missed the entire point........

Hopkins moves too slow for Pacquiao.
I agree he can hurt Pacquiao bad,but he isn't catchin him at will.Hopkins always struggled with fast fighters.

Pacquiao isn't flat footed like Pavlik or Trinidad.
Hopkins looks like complete **** against fast fighters(remember JT).

Not to mention Hopkins is shot.So at a 165 catchweight,might be an interesting fair fight.

anybody who throws a punch hits pac at will, in fact depite losing badly margarito didnt miss a punch, pac gets hit a lot, why wouldnt a faster more precise hopkings hit him at will??? if trinidad,jones jr,pavlik, clazaghe , or tarver punches couldnt even touch hopkins why would manroids punches even phase him?? I dont care how fast manroid is Hell never even step into the rings with hopkins easy victory for hopkins easy.

[SceneSpectator!]

understand roach.. he even say manny will beat the klits if the klits chided pac and roach.

honestly, if bhop and pac at the same weight class, pac will devastate bhop. alas, the best man the boxing world can offer is pbf, not because he is an american black but the best man closer to pac level, is scared to death to pac, so this aint possible until such time pbf would muster enough courage to face pac, we'll not see this happening.. at least not the soonest time.

This isn't worth commenting on because B-hop is way to big and he would murder Pacquaio literally after the fight there would be a funeral in General Santos City!!!

[v.cassiusali@ya]

b-hop state the facts???

check your post first? and who's that top black afro-american fighter who deserve to fight pac???

nobody!!! only mexicans got the balls to fight pacquiao...that is why i salute the mexicans because even if they lost every fight with the pacman, they still wanta to fight him...

unlike that great afro-american coward who claimed to be number 1 but afraid to fight... b-hop is the real racist...he once called joe the "white boy", ridiculed and belittle joe calzaghe but joe shamed him...b-hop should keep his mouth shut.

[Cash Cow]

He stated a fact, that has no logic to it....

Its like me saying, Mayweather is scared of Indian boxers because hes not faught one.........But the fact here is, there are no indian boxers that are worth a challange....

You could say the same for Pac not fighting khan, maidana, kotelnik, Ortiz etc etc And these lot are just as good as the Bradleys or Alexanders (maybe a minor step below, saying that kotelnik was apparently robbed vs alexander)

So where is the logic?

Anyone can state a fact, heres a fact, Manny pacquiao beat the **** out of Clottey

wow 1 black boxer from Africa......fact is...all thats on mannys resume are asian and latino fighters....

remember he avoided the black guy who shut out Eric Morales?

[Cash Cow]

He ducked the lineal WW champ in Shane Mosley

isnt that the same guy that Mayweather utterly dominated?

hehehe
