Comments Thread For: Roach: Pacquiao Must Get KO To Make Mayweather Fight Viable

[Fetta]

Floyd lost, plain and simple, I was there. Every time u hear someone say how he beat him, they say... "he adjusted" lol no he didn't, wtf ?!? I wish we could see the live reaction of every Floyd fan that was watching the fight lol it was horrorific gaze till they said he "won"

I was there watching Pac fans literally cry as the rounds went on.

No need to lie

WOW their only fight (Manny-Floyd) was a total dud, and the only reason for that was Floyd's style. If people who threw away hundreds or thousands of dollars to go see that disappointing fight live, or paid a super-expensive PPV fee for it would do the same again, then OMG those people would really need to see a shrink if they think anything different will happen in a 2nd fight. If anything, it will be EVEN MORE BORING than before, for two simple reasons: 1) They are both older, therefore in worse shape than in that previous boring fight. 2) They would both be semi-retired if it happened say next year on cinco de mayo for example. Because IMO the fight of Manny vs. Vargas, doesn't even count as a real fight. If Bradley gave Vargas a boxing lesson for 11 rounds, it's pretty obvious that for Manny, it will be the equivalent of a sparring session, something similar to what happened when he "fought" Brandon Rios, who was a punching bag the whole fight.

I'd rather see Mayweather grow a pair and accept GGG's challenge at 154 any day. I believe GGG would KO him, and in the process he would seriously hurt him and send him to the hospital like he did to Brook, even if he had to drain himself to 154. He is just too powerful and relentless even for a slick trickster-runner with excellent defensive tactics such as Floyd.

Why do Manny and his team keep mentioning Floyd's name during the build up to Manny/vargas?

You answered your own question, Dunn. Manny's team probably sees the lackluster interest in this fight with Vargas. So how to create a spark? Throw out there the fantasy that Manny beating a kid who Roach admits can't punch, will somehow entice Floyd into a rematch. Also throw in that Floyd visited Roach's gym, allegedly looking for Manny. I'm a Manny fan & have supported him through his last fight with Bradley, but enough is enough. Time to hang them up for good. The first Floyd fight was a slap in the face to fans. At this point, a rematch would be a boot in the ass.

Just seems ****** to me. I would think the last thing anyone connected with Manny would want is someone to think about The Floyd/manny fight.

So...Floyd sees Manny knocking ***ers out and THATS gonna make him come get in the ring.

Did Roach forget about "Health First". Manny better look easy to fight for Coward ass Floyd to wanna fight. He should also act like he re injured his arm. Floyd will for sure jump in then and take the bait.

lmfao ...Like Floyd is gonna fight a healthy Manny thats KOing guys. heheheheheheee

Pac already acted like he injured his arm.

But the mentality is that Manny had an injured shoulder during the Floyd fight. Roach hopes that fans buy that & believe that now that he's healed, it will be a better fight. Maybe he's not considering that if Manny had an injured shoulder, he shouldn't have been in the ring in the first place! Charging a yard for that performance!

Thats the Manny he would've fought except Manny said no because he didn't want to take a drug test.

See I don't think people think about that. They just think of how bad he looked. I also think people do not really believe him.

Its as if they think he has to be tied to Floyd to sell.
