I was just at the Pacquiao vs Bradley fight & at the Crawford fight this weekend and even TBUD had a Jumbotron. There was something super fishy about his event from the get go.
Which is ironic since Showtime now shows it for free in HD on YouTube.
Anyway...
"I know Manny wants the rematch really bad, Manny thought he won the first fight and if you look at it with no commentating, you watch and see him landing more punches. I still was a little disappointed in Manny’s performance but now he’s one hundred percent and I think at one hundred percent, he will destroy him," Roach told On The Ropes Boxing Radio.
First Roach says his fighter didn't do enough to win the fight despite what Manny says.
Then Roach says that Mayweather's jab was there all night long and that's why they lost.
Then Roach says he didn't believe in the shoulder injury.
Now, Roach is pulling a Teddy Atlas, backtracking so he can try and sell a fight.
I wish I were an interviewer. I'd literally play his "didn't do enough" video right at him and say, "what the F?"

Pac won it injured or not, he not only outgunned Floyd he landed the cleaner heavier shots.
And that's the BOTTOMLINE. And wether you still don't agree that Pac won. You cannot dispute the competitive nature of the fight that only shows that nothing was concluded that night. Nothing.
and a strong case can be said that Pac was robbed.
You only need to hear all the whispers of the fans for seeing the most expensive boring fight of all time happened when one man chased the other one who just wanted to run and survive hoping that vegas judging will save him as he tried his best not to engage.
# instead of proving who's the best and putting an exclamation point to this rivalry. He decides to quit boxing. Shows who's the one on queer st. Ain't it..
unfinished business written all over it, but he remains silent..speaks volumes really..
even in his country the sling was evident after his surgery.

Look at old videos of him first fighting he looked like a little boy, but still had explosive power and speed. Memo heredia was at mayweathers gym while may weather was training for pacquiao

Originally posted by therealpugilist View Postwould've at least been a believable excuse freddie, if you gave manny a shoulder rub, or he winced in the fight, or he complained in the corner like EVERRY OTHER FIGHT WHO IS INJURED IN A FIGHT
give it up...sore losers are cowards
Go look at Castillo vs Floyd fight where Floyd says he tore his rotator cuff. You see Floyd wincing during the fight? Go check out some interviews of Castillo on if Castillo noticed any wincing or any injury from Floyd.
If you go check out interviews, Manny did mention it in the corner after round 4.
