Comments Thread For: Roach: Annihilating Algieri Will Make Mayweather Run

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Freddie Roach reiterated on a conference call Thursday that Chris Algieri “is in over his head” on Saturday night in Macau, China.

Manny Pacquiao’s trainer also predicted Pacquiao will knock out Algieri in the third round of their WBO welterweight title fight at The Venetian Macau (HBO Pay-Per-View; $69.95 in HD). On second thought, though, Roach reasoned that annihilating Algieri in such a way wouldn’t be good for landing the fight Pacquiao and Roach really want – an ever-elusive showdown with Floyd Mayweather Jr.

The real question-how will a devastating KO affect Jesse Vargas?

[Xi_]

Freddie will be watching tape of Jesse Vargas for his next fight because that's who team pacquiao wants fight next. Their mention of Floyd is just hot air.

i see he can't keep his word of not naming floyd's name for the build up this fight

[Black Barty]

Will both sides please shut up about this fight already? Neither did anything to make it happen over the years beyond grandstanding. They just dangled it in front of us like a carrot. Neither has any credibility at this point.
