MANILA, Philippines – Even Freddie Roach is sold: Floyd Mayweather Jr. is the best boxer of his generation.

Roach, Manny Pacquiao’s longtime trainer, recently admitted that the undefeated Mayweather tops his ward as the best boxer of this era.

“Manny had eight world titles and a lot of great opponents and so forth. Mayweather had the same, had a great career and undefeated, so I guess we're going to have to give it to Mayweather,” the multi-titled cornerman said in a boxingscene.com report by Carlos Boogs.

Mayweather actually won titles in five weight divisions, three fewer than Pacquiao, who was champion in an unprecedented eight weight classes.

But Mayweather proved he is the top dog by besting Pacquiao in their showdown last May, which turned out to be the richest fight in boxing.

Roach himself trained two boxers in an attempt to hand Mayweather his first loss ever. He worked Oscar De La Hoya’s corner when he fought Mayweather in 2007 and did the same for Pacquiao.


In both times, Roach failed.

Mayweather retired after beating Andre Berto in September, his perfect 49-0 record intact.

This, Roach said, is why Mayweather’s the best.

“Mayweather had no losses and so forth, so he's probably king of this era,” he added.

Still, Roach gave Pacquiao his due.

“But Manny was a lot more exciting for the fans,” Roach said.

Apparently die hard Pac fans know more about general circumstances than Freddie Roach and his fighter. Roach never bandwagond on the IV theory which means only one thing, Roach knows that Floyd's lawyers could present something to the public. Nobody wants a libel war... I'm sure there are many dark secrets Top Rank does not want exposed. Hauser was their failed speculative attempt.

It's easy to speak After the fight already happened. But there was no major damage done by either fighter, and because it was quite underwhelming, I'd like to see a rematch. They'd still get about at least half the number of pay-per views from their record first bout, so why not.

That is why as a Floyd fan I didn't really enjoy the fight...He won but he did it the easy way...I wanted him to KO Manny.....

The fact is Manny did have a bad shoulder injury which is why he had to stop sparring for a couple weeks right before the fight. You could see he barely threw his right after the 4th and when he did there was no power behind it. I think the fight was a draw which is impressive considering he only had one healthy arm. He was literally throwing one arm combinations at times

No No No. It would of been exactly the same outcome. Floyd dictates the fight. Only way to beat Money May is to smother him like medaina and Castillo did. pacman is not the pacman of before. Not even close.

Absolutely!
