Comments Thread For: Roach Admits: I Don't Think I'll Accept Crawford For Pacquiao!

[Combat Talk Radio]

He goes through the motions yeah but he doesn't seem to be anywhere the Manny we saw blasting fools out and showing no fear.

That's not Manny's fault, Alex Ariza jumped ship, dude.

Small gamboa? But brook is ok?

Small Brook is a last ditch name thanks to Eubank Jr and Canelo being divas without Brook there would be no September fight at all, Crawford seeked a tiny guy who was inactive...

Roach is amazing. He wants a Floyd rematch, but he thinks Crawford is too much for Manny in November! I guess it's going to be Pacquiao vs. Vargas.

Yeah but who wouldn't want that Floyd rematch when they still stand to make far more money than they can anywhere else. Roach knows where his bread is buttered.

Also, Pacquiao v Vargas will happen. That's why top rank stalled on the Brook v Vargas fight. Although Vargas was going to make good money v Brook, Arum knows he will make a lot more with an in-house fight and he cares about his own cut of the money, not the fighters. Simple as that.

He probably knows Crawford is possibly his future star, he's not going to put him in with Manny right now. Crawford and Vargas are still mostly known to the casual fan so it doesn't really matter which he fights, 98% of people will be tuning in to watch Pacquiao so he doesn't need to risk his next potential cash cow.

Anyway, Manny is a ring legend so if it gets to the point where his team are reluctant to put him in with good young fighters then they should be advising him to retire maybe, not trying to milk him for more money.

Yea i dont think the ppv numbers will be that much of a difference between pac/crawford and pac/Vargas.
