Im not sure whose correct, but I Hope Roach is. No matter what you think - whether u think Mayweather is duckin, Pac is juicin, or Arum is keepn everythin in house - EVERY BOXING FAN IS IN AGREEMENT - this fight HAS TO HAPPEN!
The fighters have made so many millions, and know their fans want it. They OWE it to us to make the fight. May 2010, and no later. Mayweather will already be 35 and Pac 33. You can argu that Pac already is not the same fighter, and looked alot better against de la Hoya, Hatton and Cotto than he was against Margarito and Mosely. And you can argue, that, no matter how great May still is, thats he's not as fast now as he was when he fought Gatti and Judah 5-6 yrs ago.
Dont wait any longer. AFTER May-Ortiz and Pac-Marquez III. MAKE IT!

Obviously Victor Ortiz is no tune up. We all know hes leagues ahead of Manny and Floyd in terms of skill, speed, strength, and heart. Come September 17th, Victor Ortiz will kill Mayweather in round one and become boxings next SUPERSTAR!

lol
Why is Roach's opinion greeted with so much hostility?

Im sure many people feel the same way, that Floyd may see Ortiz as a warm up for Manny.
