Comments Thread For: Roach on Pacquiao's Options: Floyd, Khan, Bradley, Ortiz

[Marshall89]

Khan has the stuff to produce a few interesting frames against Manny but the conflict of interest is obvious. It's the 'Wild Card' factor.
Bradley is a whirling, wild and powerless performer waiting for a bigger paycheck.
In evading Amir, he showed us all what he lacks in confidence.
Victor should get out before he get's truly hurt.
His adventure in Floyd's world was a nightmare. Mayweather's sucker punches will feel playfull compared to Pac's power.
The only meaningful opponent for Pac has been attempting to convince fans and the media that he will not fight the P4P best because of 'medical enhancements' that Manny 'allegedly' utilizes.
The first 24/7, with it's display of Arizza's conditioning talents is all the evidence required to dismiss Floyd's lies.
The fact that someone has natural gifts larger then his own, is a hard concept for Floyd to swallow.
Combine these with the finest conditioning coach and trainer on planet Earth and you have a Pacquiao.
Marquez gave Pac 2 incredible contests but time did not bless him with ultimate abilities. Juan Manuel can no longer compete with greater masters of the sport.

Mayweather was a hell of fighter but he will always be remembered for ducking the very best while in his prime.
Yes. Floyd truly knows boxing. Therefore he knows that the man named Pacquiao will defeat him. Pac has that intangible gift that a man like 'Money' will wrestle with like a demon on fire.
Floyd's ego requires him to retire undefeated as opposed to 40 mil wealthier with a loss.
Manny gives away more cash then Mayweather takes home.
If Floyd has no desire to test himself in the Holy waters of the sport, then the Congressman should retire with his health, wealth and reputation and leave this field of complaining, ego driven goons, behind.

Beautiful !!!

LOL @ Ariza being a talented conditioning coach and then ROFL @ Ariza being the finest conditioning coach and trainer of planet Earth.

Roaches opinions and thoughts are meaningless when it comes to Mannys match-making. We all know Bob Arum gives Manny a beatable "Top Rank" opponent and Manny YES!

Roach is the same guy who told us that JMM did not deserve a 3rd fight with Manny after their 2nd fight. The same guy who said they wouldn't fight Margarito after he beat Cotto. The same guy who said there was no way they'd fight Shane Mosley because he was way too good and strong @ 147. Roach ain't ****!

[Marshall89]

The minute Tim Bradley signed to Top Rank was the very minute that it was indirectly announced that Floyd was not going to be next whatsoever. It may happen after Bradley, but certainly not before.

I dunno yu know. Everyone in England was saying the reason Frank Warren signed George Groves was to get the Groves vs. DeGale rematch. But that ent the case, It's 'cos Frank wanted to beat his rivals to his signature, so it clean came out of the blue to be fair. The rematch is now more likely though

Pacquiao in Ukraine lol

maybe the Klitchkos can promote it

He ain't **** but at least he don't claim Manny's better than every boxer ever to grace this planet, and that he can beat everyone, and that he doesn't want a fight with top opponents 'cos they're on steroids!!
The Mayweathers have claimed Tony, Cotto, Shane, Khan, Manny and Martinesz are all on steroids, and yu know why fam? 'cos the Mayweathers know these boys can beat Floyd in their prime, and like to come out with bull**** accusations to keep the *****s happy

Fair enough Freddie goes back on his word a lot but at least he's honest and said straight up that Mosley is too strong for Manny, whereas the Mayweathers would just say Floyd would 'stomp' on them (but duck them all still) and claim they're on steroids or wait til they're past their best

You can't be serious. Roach is not some honorary honest guy. He has had fighters in the past associated with roids.

Then let's backtrack to his most recent disturbing words... Roach is on record stating that Ortiz should have illegally headbutt Mayweather again after getting penalized for the first strike. Illegal headbutts are very dangerous and alone can end a fighter's career. And yet, we have a trainer saying that Ortiz should have headbutt Mayweather repeatedly!

After comments like that, you'd have to wonder, what sort of demented gameplan he would devise if Khan or Pac ever fought Mayweather.

WBC welterweight king Floyd Mayweather Jr. - “You know, obviously, everyone wants Mayweather. Of course, we’re all getting a little tired of hearing his name because he doesn’t want to fight Manny. But hopefully, that fight will happen. That fight is so interesting, it could end up being a trilogy. Actually, it could be the last three fights for Manny, if the fight goes as we see it because they’re both very, very good fighters so it’s a fight we want.”

Translation: "Manny won't take that test any time soon so we don't want Mayweather."

Post-Translation: "If Manuel Pacquiao takes that random test, he might get busted for PED's and that'll be the end of his career. Better not to face Mayweather and play it safe."
