Comments Thread For: Roach: Cotto Gave Advice on Mayweather, Picks Manny

[joemama]

Cotto seems more intelligent than most boxers.

maybe he did and maybe freddie is just not telling everything that was said during that conversation.

I acknowledged that within the post;

"I'm sure he elaborated a little to Freddie, but from Freddie's comments you get the impression not a lot more."

In any case, it's actually not the norm for Freddie to hold back much. This site alone has been full of Freddie interviews and quotes of him openly talking tactics and in camp details, far far more detailed than "foot speed". Honestly, I don't think Cotto has said much and I'm merely expressing as a fan of all said persons, a little disappointment.

The ego on Freddie Roach.

The ego on Freddie Roach.

And Floyds?

Cotto told Manny "the reason you will win is because of Freddie Roach?" That demonstrates to me Cotto has more faith in Freddie's game plan than he does in Manny's boxing ability.

Wow, Freddie, Manny hasn't even won the fight yet, yet you want the credit? Roach, your ego needs to be checked! Honestly, if and when Manny loses this fight, I don't think Roach will be the same.

Why wouldn't he be? Is not like he didn't see Manny put to sleep in front of him? The question is, how the Mayweathers deal with the loss since he never experience one? With Floyd weak mind I fear he might be on deep depression worst than Ricky Hatton, especially he keep saying he's TBE.

Freddie's gameplan was the reason Oscar was winning against Floyd until Oscar ran out of gas.

Cotto is bound to pick Manny, he is part of his gym and loyal to the same trainer. I don't imagine you'd hear many people from the Mayweather Boxing Club choose Manny either. Not much point in fans running away with these comments as I'm sure Roach would want us too, he is pretty annoying lately. Respect where it is due, and he has it from me, but he needs to stop with so many fleeting comments.

Wow! I've seen some posters here that have shallow minds, yours is just empty. Really?

"If Manny loses this fight". That's all it should have been.
