    Freddie Roach: "Mosley Is Past It But Manny Won't Get Into A Slugfest" (Video)

    Interview with Freddie Roach where he makes some interesting comments:

    Roach "I still think Mosley is past it, he should have retired after the Mora fight.."

    "Manny will dominate every round and KO him.."

    "We want to KO Mosley to show Floyd Mayweather that we perform better against common opponents.."

    Reporter asks: "Is there any truth to Bob Arum saying Manny will try to slug it out with Mosley?"

    Roach:
    "No."

      The only problem with that is that Floyd fought an infinitely better version of ODLH, a better version of Hatton and now a better version of Mosley.

      Pac fought a better version of JMM though at a better weight for him....Floyd made up for this by embarrassing JMM , whilst MP could not beat him convincingly in two tries.

        You haven't seen the version of shane mosley against pac yet unless you can see the future.

        I think manny is a considerably better fighter than the one that fought marquez at 130, who I thought was considerably better than the pac that fought marquez at 126.

          I know what you mean, I mean, Singsurat claim to fame is beating Manny, but it is well know that Torrecampo beat the better version.

            floyd fought a better oscar.

            but pac fought a better hatton in that it was his own weight class which he was succesful in,hatton had only been to welter like once,and didnt feel comfortable with it,and i dont think the KO affected hatton for the pac fight,but him overtraining and being trained by 2 people cuz snr is so unprofessional probably affected him,not that it mattered too much.

            floyd was so bad to bloat up even more agiasnt an already small enough lightweight!.

            floyd fought mosley after a long lay off of inactivity,ring rust could have affected him baf,especially at his age.

            but mosley didnt take punishment that will stop him being dangerous or anything,although pacs style will make him look just as inefective and past it,but u put shane back agaisnt someone who isnt slick and someone who isnt floyd or pac,and he will KO them.

                oh i agree......i think he is too.......i also believe it is the product of two things

                1. Performance enhancing drugs

                2. Clever matchmaking

                PED's or not he still gets credit from me for beating Clottey, Margo and Cotto

                i think he's dirty though

                    That interviewer was a complete a$$, the jerk's eyes were popping out most of the time. That bit at the end just showed what an amateur he was.

                    Freddie handled it well.
