Comments Thread For: Roach: No April Tuneup, I Want Pacquiao-Marquez 5 Next

[littlemac]

I don't think so man pacquiao was unsuccessfull in stopping him before so how could it happen now? We could also make the same argument Marquez could never stop pacquiao but it happened Marquez made adjustments in his third and fourth fights which made it possible I don't think pacquiao is finished but he will be reluctant pull the trigger and get in exchanges especially against Marquez truth be told though the punishment Marquez was taken in that fourth fight rd.5 would've taken any other fighter right down. It Marquez is just that elite fighter.

Exactly!!!!!!!!!! The Fanboys like to believe otherwise with their excuses.

A part of me agrees while the other thinks the opposite. I think the reason Pacquiao was on his way on stopping JMM is because he was being more aggresive than he was for the third fight. This ultimately got him out of there. For a 5th fight, Pacquiao has that psychological disadvantage. He will forever remember that Marquez can knock him out and will eventully think even more in the ring, which isn't good for him. I expect a 5th fight to be like the 3rd.

YES!!!!! Only the fanboys think this is some kind of video game were you can just bounce back like nothing and try again.

Manny didnt even suffer a Concussion. He was Kod not murdered. After his exam at the ER he played four games of chess like nothing happen. Hes more upset at the mistake he made. Hes comfortable with the loss and knows in this sport things like this can happen to the best." Thats Boxing"-Manny Pacquiao
And he was winning and dominating the fight. So please with the whinny soft bullshlt that he needs to come back soft and careful. What a joke. Ricky Hatton went off the deep end...Manny took a trip to Jerusalem...He took this KO with a grain of salt. Thats what real champs do!

i hear you I do he was ahead on the scorecards up until that point but how much longer was expected to keep that pace up all that head and body movement is exhausting remember at the end of rd.5 he was exhausted as he should be he was on tear there for a minute I just don't think he will be the same fighter man that was devestating although I hope he will... We'll see.

You obviously don't understand concussions and why the commission suspended him from fighting for 90 days.

He did suffer concussion symptoms. There is also evidence that once you get KO'd you are more susceptible to get KO'd again.

Pac-boy is just trying to down play his hero's KTFO loss. Pac-boy forgets Manny had to be revived. This wasn't a light knock out.

Im with Roach on this. Get back in the Ring. Manny isnt having problems with the loss. Hes pissed more than anything at himself. His whole career hes been getting shlt about being reckless jumping in! You fight a guy 5 times...hes gonna figure you out. You underestimate he hasnt...you gonna get KTFO! He knows this now! Now its Manny that will come in with a changed Plan!

Manny hasn't changed anything in 4 fights. What makes you think he's gonna change anything for a 5th fight??

IMO he beat Bradley even though I thought Bradley won rds 10-12 soundly.

Cotto is still out there as well. I think manny would beat him again.

I agree about options, unless they GBP makes a deal for Paulie like they did with JMM. I don't think we'll see the 08-10 manny but thats because there are no more come forward, no defense fighters in TR's stable at 147 right now.

I hope Cotto/Pacquiao 2 doesn't happen. I didn't want it to happen before, and nothing has changed. The weight would still be the key issue. Match up Pac/Marquez/Bradley/Rios on one show and then the winners fight each other in late 2013.

You must have missed whats in bold. Manny will come back much more focused and motivated.

i agree. JMM set up the perfect punch...nobody can take that from him. But if you fight a man 4 times you better count on the guy figuring you out. JMM has seen Pacs hand. He knows Manny! Manny now knows what JMM was up too. Better believe the next fight Manny will hold nothing back. He will be more cautious and thats where Mannys game will improve.

evidence huh? So youre saying you can have the symptoms of concussions but no concussion? Despite that...It is determined....he had NO Concussion! Hence the reason i said....He suffered no Concussion. Whats to understand?
And every man is different. Some are more susceptible to getting Kod...some are NOT...You may have some evidence that can prove some cases..as i do as well that can prove that theory is wrong. Plenty of fighters have been flatten out and came back to win. You should know this game is more mental than physical.
If you let a KO loss mess your mind up..chances are you will more likely be timid and get KOd again. If you dont let it get you mentally you can use it as a positive. And you work in the corner of fighters...come on man, do better than that!

[WESS]

I don't think so, because if Pacquiao performs as well as he had done up to the surprise KO, he'sll beat up and probably stop Marquez. All he has to do is avoid tripping over Maruez' foot, like he did, falling suddenly face first into the punch.

I recall in their last fight, Marquez was quite obviously sticking his front foot far forward and stood on Pacquiao's toes about 30 times, In the last round it was so blatant that Pacquiao, trying to get away from him, moved his foot back a couple of paces, and Marquez kept his foot pressed down, and walked along with him. Can be clearly seen.

Special-ed displaying why he’s so very special…

I like how people say that manny was killing marquez up to the ko he was up two rounds marquez has been in way over his head alot of times down two rounds is nothing pacman should take a tune up fight cause he will be scared of getting hit like that again he must like long naps
