Comments Thread For: Roach Prefers Marquez For Manny Pacquiao's Next Fight

[FeFist]

Exactly. It is true that it is NOW the easiest option for Manny. But it's also the most cowardly option. What if the roles were reversed, and the 42 y/o with no action lately was Manny? It's pathetic to even contemplate Marquez as an option.

What they should do, both Roach and Manny, if they are so sure that Pac is the better fighter and he lost because of his shoulder injury, is challenge Mayweather to a 2nd fight, calling him yellow, a coward, a runner, whatever it takes to force the guy to fight Pac again. They should also ask for a neutral venue, not in the US, no American judges, no referees that are friends with Mayweather. IDK, some place like the UK or Australia may be cool for example.

The first rounds of that disappointing fight Pac was really putting a beating on Floyd. Yet all of a sudden, Manny lost all his speed, power and will to fight, so it makes sense to think that he was injured, because I really don't want to think he sold himself out to pretend that suddenly Floyd "figured him out" and all that speed and power from the early rounds just went away for no reason, by the 2nd third of the fight.

Manny-Floyd should be the ONLY possible fight on the minds of both Pac and his trainer. Maybe a warm-up fight first with a bum like Khan, to get some confidence and maybe even a KO win, and then get serious and do the re-match with Mayweather.

The delusions grow with each passing day. "Pacquiao was really putting a beating on Floyd," is that what people are going with now?

Marquez isn't fighting again....he is gonna be taking a lot of KDs on a bum leg....look at Maravilla...once his leg went he got dropped in every fight

JMM will never be easy for Manny despite the age and long lay-off, Manny is coming from a serious surgery and watching how much he had to work with JMM in four fights, damn it's crazy looking for the man with Manny's number but i don't blame Roach to avenge that loss.
If they fight i hope in WADA testing because JMM clearly with Memo became younger, faster and stronger than he was at 20y.
It's time all that acne to disappear from his body, period.

Yeah fight the guy who took your soul and made your mom start hitting the ring with voodoo.

So Funny! I heard many chickens were killed, and many black candles were lit! But Marquez has his own bruja! With better black magic skills!

The great Mexican warrior has said many times that he is not interested. KO6 put the definitive stamp on the rivalry and it will be the lasting image of their fights for eternity.

Just accept that and let it go, Freddie.

He who laughs last, laughs best!
Hahaha!

But I think the face plant in the ring also caused a lot of the brain damage that PACs Doctor talked about. That punch started it, that face first fall, supplied a lot too!

Maybe the injury was real, I hope it was.

I'm no Floyd fan. I'm more of a Manny fan. But, this reoccurring theme of Manny losing via some external force, or shady business has to stop. This nonsense about Manny "giving" Marquez rematches has to stop.

Manny's fanbase are the dumbest fans in sports. You can't blame me for being skeptical of his Injury; he's afraid on needles, Roach doesn't know what Ariza was giving him, manny sues over steroid accusations, yet Fortune (a known user) is welcomed back, and Manny's fanbase accuse Marquez of roids because manny gets decapitated. It's always something from Manny's fanbase.

You can't blame me. Definitely not red k worthy, homey.

Again, I wish Manny held off and fought Floyd healthy. I hope your right

Also, the biggest b-move is Manny saying "don't do that". Come on, man--it's a fight

And again in closing--my contention was fanboys claiming manny "gave" Marquez rematches. Manny needed them. And doesn't deserve one now

The bold ^^

Too many silly post-mortems since that fight.

I dont believe the injury claim.
