Comments Thread For: DiBella Rips Freddie Roach: He's Terrified For Chavez Jr.

[LeadUppercut]

Here is a guy obsessed with Pacquiao. Floyd won a title @154 against De la Hoya....and Floyd don't even mention Martinez name !!

****** !!

After beating Shane Mosley on Saturday, Mayweather said fighting Martinez could now be an option.

"I thought about it. Right now, I don't know what I'm going to do," he said.

Martinez's manager, Lou DiBella, told the BBC he doubted a super-fight between American Mayweather and Filipino Pacquiao would occur, with the boxers unable to agree on the drug-testing programme or financial split.

DiBella argued it made more sense for Mayweather to fight Martinez, who recently defeated Kelly Pavlik for the WBC and WBO middleweight titles but is a career light-middleweight.

Pavlik would first have to waive his right to a rematch with Martinez, which was a clause in their fight contract.

However, Mayweather, who is now unbeaten in 41 fights, said a fight with Pacquiao could still occur if an agreement could be met on random drug-testing.

After the fight with Mosley, Mayweather said: "If Manny takes the [blood] test, we can make the fight happen."

Just because Chavez Jr. has the belt, doesn't mean he's Freddie's best! QUILLIN is taking over & roach will testify but can't go against his reigning champ. Hey, the truth is the truth, I just try to B.R!ghteous and say it.

never said he was smaller, but he is OBVIOULSY not nearly as good as sergio. everyone knows sergio is the lineal MW champ, **** the strap - sergio vacated it anyway!

well bute didnt have pavlik lined up until recently. there was months where sergio could have called him out, but hasnt' mentioned his name. Dirrell? Hopkins? (if he can fight manny, why not hopkins?)

face it, Sergio hasn't called out ANYBODY on his level (except manny, who is exponentially smaller). . . sergio is only looking for money, and he wants to make it off OTHERS NAMES. . . The only damn names that have came outta this dude's mouth is Manny, Floyd, and Chavez Jr.

He is 36yo, and has less than two years left in the game.

This is not about what you want, or what you think Sergio should do next.

***'s sake, Pacquiao's recent opponents are a total joke compared to Martinez, but I have never heard you bring that up or call Pacquiao out?

Anyone that has seen Quillin spar with Chavez will agree that Quillin is not only better, but will take over the middleweight division. ASK WILD CARD pugilists.

I don't know if Quillin will over take the MW division. I doubt Quillin could beat Martinez in the near future. Maybe after Martinez slow down does Kid chocolate has a chance.

But, anybody who has seen both Quillin and Chavez Jr fight. Knows who's the actual better fighter of the two.

So it's laughable why posters are demanding for a lesser fighter to get in the ring. While telling the better fighter go fight this guy and that guy first.

My goodness WTF?

j-ros, i know im critical of sergio, but don't think of me as a hater on serg. the guy is obviously a hella talented fighter. i just don't know why he doesn't want to take on more risky fights>? i mean i guess he's trying to do what every other boxer does - make the most money the easiest way possible.

What, like Pacquiao does ?

Explain to me why Manny picked Mosley instead of Berto.

Three opponents were short-listed..... Marquez, Mosley, Berto.

Marquez is a lightweight, and Mosley was clearly shot and should not have been ranked in the top 5..... so why did Pacquiao pick Mosley over Berto ?

And, explain this..... " Victor Ortiz is too green "

Roach knows how good his fighters are and what they're capable of.

Again if people want to say Quillin should fight so and so. Then say the same about JCC Jr...Don't give JCC jr a pass and downplay all these legit opponents like Pirog who want to challenge Martinez. Because, you want to ****ride or go against Roach/TR or even Pac for some reason.

*sigh*

Use words Jro, otherwise I will just assume that you are being emo.

Come on, Pirog aint legit.

He is no more legit than Chavez or Canelo.

He looked good beating one prospect, but he looked **** beating another.

What?

Who would argue that fact?

However, Pac winning 5 vacant titles? Yea OK...

Pirog ain't legit? No more than Chavez or Canelo?

Yea OK.

But, it's fine ignore the fact that he's fighting a nobody next and wants to cherry pick another but it's ignoring a more deserving fighter who's begging for a fight.
