Roach is right on both accounts. -
Roach ALWAYS saying some ish we already know....anyway, SHOTS FIRED!!!Comment

Roach is with Cotto. When his fighters have perceived rivalries, he gets defensive about his fighters and we can expect more of it with GGG. He doesnt do it so much that its unreasonable, just a healthy dose of family tribalism. Its normal in all things competitive, including boxing.
Plus, he's right to point out that Golovkin doesnt sell tickets. He doesnt handpick though.Comment

Yet Roach is the guy who recently said they would prefer to fight Golovkin at a weight lower than 160

Freddie Roach handpicking :

"Shane came to the gym twice to ask me to let him fight Manny," Roach says. "I told him no both times, and both times for the same two reasons: First, there isn't enough money there, and second, you're too good a fighter."Comment

We know Cotto won't face Golovkin stop being defensive.Comment

Roach would know about handpicking.
Why not throw your "middleweight champion" in the ring with the handpicker? Oh that's right, the MW division is a bunch of b*tches who want nothing to do with the best fighter in the division.Comment

Hmm. 8500 tickets out of 9000 seats, his first time at MSG, against an unknown Aussie...... sounds pretty solid to meOriginally posted by ShoulderRoll View Post
How does Golovkin "handpick?" Guys are lining up to fight him, right?Comment

This is a dumb post. Roach was being complimentary to his friend, Shane, seeing as they were going with the Cotto fight because it had more money. Pacquiao fought Shane 2 fights later and had him running scared. Besides, Roach doesnt "duck" or "handpick" anyone, he's a trainer not a fighter anymore.Originally posted by Light_Speed View PostComment
