Comments Thread For: Roach: Pacquiao's First Fight Back at 140? Danny Garcia!

Well that will be Garcia zero gone then. he was comfortably being out-boxed by Khan before he got KO'd. I expect he will be totally outboxed by Pac.

People don't see it that way here. People think of your out boxing someone and then you get iced or tkod by a fight changing punch that you actually got out boxed because you were being timed and your opponent landed the winning punch. It's not okay to be winning on the cards before actually losing the fight around it. It holds no value, which I think is a naive way of looking at it, personally.

So mentioning Mayweather during PAC's upcoming fight was just for promotion and now the Roach is talking 140lb. and fannies can't see through this game.

Now that Danny's going up from 140lb to 147. Roach will now say Danny too is ducking because PAC wants to fight him at 140lb. What a bunch of crock! STFU already.

That was just about the dumbest statement I've read today. So by your logic, any one-punch KO artist is "outboxing" their opponent when they get the KO. So hypothetically, Floyd does what he did to Mosley, Mosley lands a huge punch in the 12th, Floyd goes down and can't beat the count... then Mosley outboxed him? W T F?

Boxers often land a fight changing punch against somebody who's outboxing them. Sometimes that's strategic/timing, sometimes it's pure luck. It doesn't change the fact that they're being outboxed and if they failed to get a KO they'd loose on points because of being outboxed.

You guys both realize that I was actually agreeing with you. Right?

Cool. It wasn't very clear so I didn't realise.
