Comments Thread For: Roach: Marquez Deserves Rematch; Manny's Leg Cramps

[mshap]

hey Roach, cut the BS -- your guy didn't seem to have any problem with his leg -- his problem was that that kept bouncing around without trying to sustain any offense -- was skittering all over the place instead of forcing the action -- either Manny just had an off night or he should really rethink his boxing career.....

Manny Pacquiao was better off taking the L and be the bigger man instead of robbing Marquez when it was clear that JMM won for many people who observed it. He made Marquez the greater fighter by them having to fix the fight in Pac's favor.

Can you provide proof that the fight is fixed.. Because as far as I know Glen Threubridge and Dave Morreti has been jundging fights outside TopRank promotions...And these are the guys who saw Pac winning.

Plus the fact that Team Pac is willing to give Marquez a rematch, is already good gesture that they are willing to clear up whatever doubts there are on this fight.

So Marquez has to win 10-12 rounds in order to win 7 rounds on the judges scorecards. No wonder he can't win.

Signed.

Them saying they will give JMM a rematch proves they know they lost that fight!!! As for the the judges fixing the fight i dont think so but im sure you know most people tend to lean towards the fighter they like the most and Manny is the GOLDEN CHILD of the sport!!!

WTF is ROach talking about... ? LEg cramps.. I dont think i seen Manny with better foot movement, side stepping few times, cutting corners at will, sticking and moving... Hilarious! JMM just had an answer for everything almost, counter punching at will..I doubt JMM needs another rematch to prove anything... I can't wait till Money May the greatest counter puncher in the game to just make this lil man look foolish... Straight up foolish...He picked JMM apart and he is gna do the same with Pacroid? Why? because he will figure Manny out, not trade with him , instead wait for mistakes to make Pacroid pay.... like he says if you make any mistakes you have to pay! lol..

Excuses excuses excuses! Manny got schooled and it was a sad day for Filipinos cause they all know very well he lost.

Manny had an " off night " because he kept getting punched in the face.

He will be fine once his team re-thinks, adjusts, and then returns to fighting more "uncomplicated" guys like Diaz/Hatton/Clottey/Margarito, until they decide to cash out with Mayweather.

[superscience]

WOW, this article pulled me out of my lurker status and actually post something.
Leg cramps? This **** could'ave been a tiny BIT believable IF they actually fought at lightweight but c'mon Freddie...you guys waited til JMM was older, easier to get hit then pulled him into your catchweight BS but you guys still got owned.
One poster said that it is a sad day for Filipinos and yes, it's true to some degree. I'm Filipino and I'm sad. Sad because Pacquiao lost the only real fight he had since ODLH and most people here won't admit it.

[kbpoetree]

this will only make Pac run farther and farther away from the Mayweather fight...
