Comments Thread For: Roach Stands Firm: Pacquiao vs. Lomachenko at 140, NO 135

Roach tryna get every advantage possible over a small guy with what? 7 pro fights lol

So many dogs barking that manny recently said he could fight at 135 but this fight would be at 140 from roach's point of view...wake up dumbazzss this is freddie roach speaking not manny, im not a huge pacquiao fan but get the story right first before you start bashing at the guy

Why Loma and not someone else? Mikey Garcia? Crawford? Those guys would be much easier to iron out in terms of weight at least.

So Pac should drain himself for Loma now? Use logic my man. This fight is just talk, there is no way its happening

I feel like Roach wants to negotiate, I hope Loma wants it.. try to negotiate do it at 138

100% pacquiao CANNOT beat lomachenko or crawford...or Floyd. He had a decent win, an ok performance and that's enough to go out on, though the bradley win was better.

Draining himself? Roach and pac both said 135 can be made easily. Pac walks around at 138, comes in to weigh in @ 144 for WW fights admiting he has to force feed himself to come close as he can to 147.
At 135 its a good competitive fight, i think Pac would be faster then he is at 140-147. He wouldnt need that big of a punch to hurt the smaller loma anyway.
Loma never boxed at 135 and only got upto 130. That being said his got axeman problems to deal with. Think he will pull through that though.
