Comments Thread For: Roach: Pacquiao's Speed Will Overwhelm Mayweather

This fight should happen next. Pac can always rematch Bradley (although he should of never had to, he whooped that ass already), or Marquez (if JMM agrees to it, seems he has stated that he is absolutely not interested in a fifth fight and who can truly blame him - although I'd still like to see it).

But Floyd and Manny should definitely get in the ring now. Both have showed some signs of slowing, Manny more than Floyd IMO, but it still has some intrigue left. I hope it gets made next.

Yes man, situation sucks! The timing is what upsets me the most. Then Meggs wants to drag this thing out. From what I've read and heard, I don't think he will get convicted of a crime. Sadly, they've already run his name through the mud and this whole situation was over 11 months ago. SMH.

Seminoles fan unite!!! I have been hearing similar things out of the tallahassee message boards. I hope it gets resolved by turkey day. Like one of the guys in the college paper said, "the news was like being a citizen of Gotham and finding out Batman just died".

Why not just go for it in May then? There is no point in fighting Bradley and Marquez again because it will likely do nothing but derail his momentum from this rios fight. He will likely look bad or lose against both those guys. Just make the ****in mayweather fight already. We've heard about it for 4 years and it will probably never happen because Arum can't go without milking every single cent he can out of this guy first.

It was a good fight in 2010, now I just want to see it because it was talked about for all this time and it's shameful to think boxing will deeply regret this one not happening 10-20 years from now. I think Floyd wins easier than he did against Canelo though. Too bad he didnt have that same belief in himself apparently.

I swear I was thinking the same thing.
If both fighters truly wanted the fight they wouldn't be negotiating other fights. They would be negotiating their fight.

If Pacquiao does end up fighting in April, I hope they get him another "Rios like" opponent. That way they could keep the momentum and pressure to make the Mayweather fight in September.

The way I see it, and the way some posters here have already said it, fighting Marquez or Bradley might end up backfiring on them. IMHO at best he wins but looks bad against both of them, and at worse he loses and the momentum gets lost again.

Give him a Judah or heck give Alvarado a much deserved payday. Make Pacquiao look good again, we know Mayweather is beating Khan in May, and end this Mayweather/Pacquiao debate by making the fight this September.

There is no pressure on Floyd especially after PAC walked away over testing, needing a stadium to be built etc PAC needs Floyd, not the otter way around

Yeah ok Roach. Just like manny was going to KO rios in four and destroy JMM the last fight. GTFO

The biggest ducking and shadiest stuff I ever seen came from the Pacquiao team when it came to the negotiations for the Mayweather showdown. Emails asking about consequences of failed drug test. Bob Arum in the beginning of 2012 destroyed the fight by giving number of excuses why Pacquiao couldn't fight including building a stadium from scratch(lol why?) after Mayweather was able to extend his time outside before going to prison to be able to fight in May. Bob Arum fcked Pacquiao for greed and he don't believe in him against Mayweather so he puts him against someone thats undefeated and then someone who always beats his ass.. now he is at the bottom and y'all still buy the PPV. No other fighter can lose twice in a row and be KTFO sleep and still be P4P and still able to fight a bum ad sell PPVs.

This.....

I dunno why cherrypicker wouldn't take this fight. PAC is obviously past his prime. He's not as sharp as when he beat Diaz, Hatton, DLH, and Cotto

[Holywarrior]

I know right.....Roach is so full of crap his eyes are brown. Old tiny Marquez wasn't overwhelmed by his speed but Mayweather would be? smh
