    Comments Thread For: Roach is Concerned: Pacquiao Looks Tired, Sluggish in Sparring

        Doesn't he often say things like, "I'm concerned, he looks distracted." I recall it happening at least twice before, during build ups for fights that weren't selling.

        If he's just being honest then, fair enough. Never easy to get a read on Freddy because he casually mixes honest evaluation with a dose of the obligatory promotional bs.

            why would roach announce this? He is undermining his fighter, perhaps Manny is 40! He is not going to train with the sam gusto that he did at 26. He could be blowing smoke, but Freddie has a habit of taking shots at Manny, somethings should stay in camp, I wonder if Manny reads some of these articles that Freddie is responsible for. I am not a huge fan of Manny, but the premise of this article is absolutely ridiculous, and unfair to the fighter

                I think it's just because he is over there. Once he's away from his country, he will lose all distractions... Yes it's tiring, but hey manny asked for this. He still has a while to get in tip top shape.

                    And Roach begins to sell the fight!!! While PAC begins to act more punch drunk or down right just ignorant. I really preferred the PAC that didn't talk much
