Comments Thread For: Roach Says Algieri Fight is Test For Pacquiao's 140 Return

[IMDAZED]

Sorry, i was being sarcastic. I find it so amazing, all this fckery from arum and pacquiao and people STILL blame Floyd smh, the hate is just too strong to see the truth i guess

What's weird is that Arum said Haymon said he was on board with the Garcia fight then last week he told the media that he spoke to Haymon once a few years ago and no one knew who he was or how to contact him. Reminds me of the countdown clock, when he claimed he was negotiating with GBP and then later admitted he had never spoke to them and had been negotiating "through" HBO. And of course Margarito said the fight was his. Just like Mosley did. And Marquez. I thought that was pretty bad but this takes the cake by a lot.

It's painfully obvious he has been playing the general public for fools. What's worse is that people believe him.

Pacquiao is too small for 147 and only succeeds there because he is such a great fighter. I think he is a natural 135 pounder in these days of weighing in the day before the fight and then gaining 10 to 15 pounds by fight time. Mayweather and Pacquiao are about the only fighters who don't put on much weight after the weigh in. Going to 140 would be a good move and he would be fighting men closer to his on size and would hurt them easier and take their punches better. Pacquiao looked great and very strong in both the Diaz fight at 135 and the Hatton fight at 140. He is a great welterweight but he would be better yet at 135 or 140 and more KOs would come his way.

Honestly this is what i see his future fights and it is sad...Mickey Garcia, Crawford,Jesse Vargas...Why is Arum doing this?

Well, Floyd sure won't fight him, so...

Anybody who thinks Pacquiao is not a natural Lightweight or Jr. Welter has got to be an idiot. The guy doesnt even diet fighting at Welter. Just like his first pro fight he had to use dumbells to allow him to compete it is the same now he had to stuff his body in with zillions of calories for welter fights. Pac virtually rliminated the who's who of Welters. Time to fight at his comfortable weightclass. Now I f Joy jr wants some part of jr welter pac at full jr middleweight even he knows just to drop the bulshiet the fight is on.

And Al Haymon?

It's prolly a plot too to get Floyd less scared if he was fighting someone 2 weightclasses below him.

What about Thurman, Khan & Broner who have called Manny out several times before though?

[tiliheels]

is bob saying manny will need to tune up with vargas after he lose to chris?? why put a rematch clause in with chris if u dont want to fight at 147 for the title anymore?? im guessing manny will lose and wont take the remaqtch for that reason alone

[Heavy Heart]

Oh I heard, I heard that they wanted Floyd, then I heard it was Danny Garcia and that Arum and Haymon were agreed on it, and now we have Vargas saying Arum told him it would be him.

Which one is it? Because at this point Arum is blowing smoke up everyone's backside.

What I want to know is why do they keep calling out Floyd but don't try to negotiate? Arum said showtime agreed to work with HBO so apparently he knows who to contact so why no negotiations?

I'M A RICH COWARD!
