    Roach isn't ******, he knows Khan doesn't stand a chance. He wants his 10% of that Mega Pay Day. He wants that fight made.

        I swear Roach has been saying the same thing about Floyd's legs for about 2 years now. First it was "Mayweather is the easiest fight for Manny", then it was "Floyd is our toughest challenge", then it was "All Mayweather does is run around the ring" and now its "Mayweather's legs are gone".

        Make up your mind, bro.

          Don't think so. He's too one dimensional. Even Cotto has somewhat of a second gear. He can mix it up inside, but box if he has to. Khan isn't gonna throw you a curveball like a Cotto could.

          Floyd can do things to mitigate Khan's jab. Watch Round 6 of Mayweather-Cotto, then watch how Mayweather made adjustments so Cotto was weary of throwing it in Round 7 after Floyd gave up trying to pullcounter over it. Once he gets the timing of Khan's jab down, Khan will be in for a rough night. Lets not even discuss the elbows and forearms to the body Khan is gonna catch inside.

            Why not get the next best thing, and if he can get the Manny fight afterward, that's big money for Roach.

                Cotto has laughably slow handspeed and was hitting floyd at will and bloodied his nose so much I was worried they were gonna stop the fight
                Laughably slow handspeed? No he doesn't...?

                  Mayweather-Khan shouldn't happen until Khan beats a Top WW. If he beats Danny Garcia and than Alexander/Berto-Ortiz winner/Guerrero, I'm all for it.

                    Roach is not even ashamed of what he says anymore. Waiting for dudes to get old for their fighters have a better chance at beating them. Shows he doesn't believe in them as a fighter or himself as a trainer to beat good fighters in their prime. What a shameful trainer.

                      Well, if Khan ever beat Floyd, the hard core Floyd fans would point out that Team Khan cherry pick Floyd cuz Roach said that Floyd's leg is gone.
