"Roach, who has often been remarkably accurate with his pre-fight predictions, expects the May 2 bout to last the full 12 rounds."



If Manny goes into this fight thinking that he can't be hurt, then both he and the Roach are in for a very rude awakening.

Floyd Mayweather will go into the May 2 welterweight showdown as the favourite in his bid to improve on a perfect 47-0 record as a professional, but Freddie Roach is confident that underdog Manny Pacquiao will emerge triumphant on points after the 12 scheduled rounds.

"I know he (Mayweather) is a good fighter but I just think I have the better fighter," Roach told Reuters before overseeing a shadow boxing session by Pacquiao at his Wild Card Boxing Club in Hollywood, California.

"Hand speed is going to be a big, big difference in this fight and Manny is much quicker than he is."

Roach, who has guided Pacquiao to world championships in eight weight divisions and a 57-5-2 career record with 38 knockouts, said that he had no concerns about the threat posed by 11-time world champion Mayweather.

Big mistake Freddie Floyd been on Memo's PEDs for almost 9 months. He going to be a beast in the ring.

Manny going to have school him and don't get caught by a lucky Floyd punch.

That's a testament to the quality of fighter that is Marquez, as well as timing.

I would like to see a link to that interview. 8 oz gloves are required for all weights under 154.

At 147 you can use 8 oz or 10 oz gloves. At 154 you can only use 10 0z gloves. Floyd basically hasn't used 8 oz since moving up to welterweight.
