Comments Thread For: Roach: Pacquiao Outboxes Canelo - But We Need a Weight Cap

[aboutfkntime]

Wynn, Las Vegas - Freddie Roach, trainer for eight division world champion Manny Pacquiao (58-6-2, 38KOs), is very confident in his fighter's ability to outbox WBO junior middleweight champion Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez (48-1-1, 34KOs).

this is ridiculous.....

1) Canelo absolutely murks Pac, and Roach knows it

2) Manny refused to rematch Cotto at 150..... Cotto was (obviously) Top Rank's first-choice selection, but the weight was a show-stopper..... that is why Pac fought Bradley.

" I will not sacrifice my body again " ~ Miguel Cotto

Unless Cotto weighed 147, Pac refused to fight him..... but now, they will fight Canelo at 154?

Never

Million
Years
LMFAO

ridiculous !

Pac must have one of his usual low/mid-level fights coming up LMAO

Because Algieri was a bigger threat and bigger puncher than Bradley, Rios, and Marquez so they had to drain him three pounds. If Algieri was able to weigh the full 147, Pac would have been the one knocked down six times and probably KO'd.

Thanks for bringing that point up for all the tards.

it's a double-edged sword

on one-hand, Pac gave the JWW a few extra pounds (which is what the pac-tards will say).....

on the other-hand, Pac dragged yet another JWW up to welter

Algieri is not so straight-forward, technically the guy was a JWW champ who moved up for a shot..... in reality it was yet another made-to-order-opponent dragged up from JWW, and it essentially boiled down to yet another in-house fight..... DeGuardia, I think it was, signed everything over to Arum for the promotion.

don't fool yourself. khan made it out just fine. no permanent damage. now look at what pac did to margarito.

Has he??? Khan hasn't fought since then AND we don't know how he's going to act when he comes back.

Cheato got KTFO and MAULED by Mosley.

Pac drained him and then had the leftovers.

Comparing a PRIME 26 year old MW with a shop worn Cheato is just CRAZY!!!

A post plaster Rito as well


No version ever of Pacquiao beats this version of Canelo. Not in the real world...fantasy p4p is a different scenario but not a MW sized Canelo vs Pac. I'll never understand how some people even have the delusions to think he could even feasibly stop Canelo. Canelo with his size and particular style would annihilate Pacquiao I would hate to see it.

Roach is on some Vargas/Khan/Haye like delusions. Canelo was outboxing, outpunching, and outlanding Khan he should have been up on the cards. Honestly speaking Canelo beat the f uck out of Khan he was landing with alarming frequency the last 2 rounds or so. At no point ever would I have wanted to be Khan at the end of those rounds. Maybe 1 or two of them but he had been slowed down a ton

If canelo dosent rehydrate past 160 pac has a shot. Maybe roach seen something he liked when canelo fought cotto. Looks like a tough fight for pac either way.

[Elroy The Great]

pac needed cotto to be at an exact weight, no way he fights alvy. not unless its at ww.

[R_Walken]

If Pac and Canelo were the same size

Pac would absolutly run through Canelo

[sammybee]

Pacman will lose to Canelo if they fight at any weight beyond 147

[pasawayako]

easy fight for pac.

he would get stretched-out like a used rubber

not a good look for the future President of the Philippines

Pac refused to fight old Cotto at 150, the weight killed the fight

no way he even looks at Canelo, Roach is talking ****
