Comments Thread For: Roach: I Think Manny Dislikes Floyd, I'm Betting on a KO

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Freddie Roach has the distinct feeling that the usually amiable Manny Pacquiao doesn't particularly like Floyd Mayweather, who he faces on May 2nd with the WBO/WBA/WBC welterweight titles at stake at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

"For the first time in my life, Manny, I get the real strong feeling doesn't like his opponent," opined Roach, from the downstairs portion of the Wild Card Boxing Club in Hollywood, California.

He didn't lose ferocity because of religion he lost ferocity because he stopped juicing with illegal, undetectable drugs. Fact.

Manny still emotionally scarred from Mayweather yelling at him at the Heat game

So unproven speculation is fact now? Do even know what fact even means?

I think this fight will be more competitive than everyone thinks. I'll probably be the only one who sees a draw to be honest. I mean I think both guys will find success in their own respective 6 rounds. Floyd has never been with a man of Pacquiao's caliber with his hand speed, footwork, awkwardness and stamina. Pacquiao uses smart tactics. But Floyd on the other hand is a superb defensive counter puncher I'm hearing he's training more on his strength, which is silly because you can get big but you won't likely be as strong as you'd think. Similar to Tim Bradley's size, big muscular dude but doesn't punch as strong. It will be risky for Floyd to go for the KO, but can't blame him because KOing Pacquiao will send the ultimate message to everyone. Floyd won't be used to getting hit a lot, but I have a feeling he will get hit more often on this fight alone than any of his last recent fights. It could also be a cat and mouse type fight. There's so any variables in this fight. Pressure will be on the judges.

yeah you are right, Floyd became as lame as a duck in the presser as a result of the yelling at the Heat game.
