Comments Thread For: Roach: Pacquiao's Legs The Difference With Mayweather

[Caught Square]

Mayweather was hardly on the ropes in his last fight. Not sure what Roach is talking about.

Philippine media are reporting today that Freddie Roach is very disappointed with Manny's sparring so far.

I don't buy it. Best believe Freddie Roach controls the narrative of what people hear. Also once the news gets back to Manny it's gonna motivate him a lot more. Much better than having him think he's doing good(even if he is) and falling into a pattern where he becomes complacent sub-consciously because everyone is praising him.

Yeah the calf cramps can make all the difference

so on may 3rd not only will it be floyds roids but it will be pacs cramps that are the reason floyd wins...

Roach you do know laying on the ropes and letting the bigger man put his weight on you doesn't help your legs and floyd legs looked perfectly fine both fights especially in latter rounds

I think Buboy said Pacman was waiting for a good shot to counter with during sparring. If he does that with Mayweather its all bad smh.

Roach is a horrible trainer banking on Mayweather's legs to be shot. Same mistake he made in Marquez 3. Banking on Marquez being ineffective at WW due to what happened with Floyd. Basically Roach is rolling dice.

With all due respect, none of you guys have any idea how Freddie is approaching this on closed doors.


Also, this is a great sign for Pacquiao's camp. Early reports has stated Pacquiao isn't taking his training as seriously as Floyd yet he's a month away and you can tell they are already working on muscle memory by focusing on techniques rather than focusing on conditioning and punching power/speed.

I just think it is funny that Pacquiao us having leg cramps but some how Floyd legs are shot and
Manny legs are better.

Everyone thought Marquez wouldn't be as effective (except me).

It was sound objective reasoning to believe Marquez wouldn't be a match for Pac at WW.

It's a fact that Pacquiao has much better legs than Floyd, doe. The difference in foot speed, and dexterity is very noticeable. So to attack an area where you have a great advantage in, is good coaching.

**** outta here noob.
