    Comments Thread For: Roach Says Haymon Blocking Pacquiao's Sparring Picks

    According to Freddie Roach, trainer of WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao, their sparring selections are being blocked off by manager/adviser Al Haymon, who works with WBC/WBA champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. The two fighters will collide in a mega-fight unification on May 2nd from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

    Roach claims he is hiring sparring partners who are stylistically similar to Mayweather, but Haymon's staff members are calling the hired fighters and offering them more money to simply stay home.

          How does it sound like something Haymon would do? What are you basing your assumption on?

          Have you had prior past working relationship with Alvin Haymon to make such a claim as "that sounds like something Haymon would totally do" or are you a hater who just doesn't like the man for no good reason.

                  Says something about the fighters too though... They'd rather take more money than to have some sparring time with Pacquiao.

                    It's good to see Haymon so confident in Floyd Jr.
