Comments Thread For: Roach: Does Canelo Have a Shot? I Don't Think So

[mathed]

Roach is too feeble to fabricate a coherent thought at this point, take what he says with a grain of salt. Canelo will be Floyd's toughest fight since DLH and will probably hurt Floyd at some point in the fight.

[Weebler I]

Roach knows Floyd will be playing his usual game of Marco Polo on fight night. Canelo is going to follow Floyd around aimlessly for twelve getting tagged with counters. :zzz:

I feel that too, but I will say this...if Alvarez can land the punches Guerrero landed he will win.

Guerrero landed some good flush shots to the body and head but didn't have the power to make them count.

canelo is a bum ... a very popular bum at that ..one thing he has is his power..so a puncher's chance is deserved....nothing else.

It isn't a coincidence that floyd, zahir, junior jones, zab, were all fights avoided by Manny and his team? well it is to his diehard fans.

What a POS this guy is

Roach gone against mayweather so many times.

He now knows its not possible to beat floyd

Yes it is. Castillo and OScar did. And many others were on the verge on beating him but were hugged all the time.

I don't care what era one decides to go back to, facing opponents this significantly bigger than you was not common place, even the greats would have gone through serious trouble. Floyd does it well because he's that damn good defensively. Some of us understand how skilled he is but credit must always be given.

The thing is that you answered why Floyd is facing him in your previous post. Canelo is flat-footed. So Floyd knows he can move around the ring relatively easily. That plus the other issues we know of about Canelo make it "less risky" in Floyd and his team's mind.

Just because the opponent is "bigger" doesn't mean that that signifies we should give a huge credit to Floyd for winning the fight. Man, he is expected to win!!!

The way you give someone like Floyd or anyone huge credit is IF they are fighting someone that people think has a decent chance of winning OR even better, that most people think will win. If Floyd fights that kind of guy and beats him, trust me, he will get the credit ..... but he doesn't want to take that risk.

So that is why people don't give Floyd the kind of credit that you are freely willing to give. It has to be deserving of that kind of credit.

You're a typical flowmo, Freddie says Floyd is a beautiful boxer and boxing fans will love it but casual fans won't, it's nothing but truth, but of course a ****** like you HAS to somehow involve Pacquaio into the equation.

they love to include pac in the equation now because of jmm's k.o of pac....

i just wonder if this be so if it was pac who ko'd jmm....

hmmmm
