completely disagree. i have yet to hear or see marvin give out any meaningful instructions to his fighter. he's way too quiet. he's more of a helper. all he says to his fighter is "good job", "nice", "keep it up" lol

You really think Roach is just thinking about the money? I doubt it. Like I said before Roach appears to live pretty modestly anyway, and he already has more money than he knows what to do with from all the huge fights he has been involved with. And I believe the dude when he says that he views Manny as a son. You don't go to battle with someone that many times and not have a deep bond. Arum though, different story. Arum's a businessman who would sale his own grandchildren for the right price.
I honestly believe that Roach thinks the Canelo fight is winnable. He envisions Manny just moving all night long and outpointing Canelo en route to a decision.
Personally though I think that's pretty delusional -- at some point Canelo would get to him and unleash. Guys like Cotto & Margarito were able to get him cornered on the ropes...what happens when a squarely in his prime Canelo gets that opportunity? And against a 38 year old Manny Pacquiao who was knocked out in horrifically brutal fashion in recent memory?
A Canelo with cement for feet? Pacquiao could be using a walker and still circle around him easily. He'd get caught, but never for long enough that he'd start to get hurt bad.
Roach just explained the difference in a CW or a dehydration clause , Roach is very good at playing the weight game .
You tell me which is the bigger handicap , a 152 CW and he can rehydrate to 170 or more , or 154 and a clause where Canelo cannot weigh more than 164 fight night .
Lol Roach is up to his old drain them tricks only this time its in reverse , if you can cap a guy from fully rehydrating its going to effect him big time , those 6-8 pounds not there on fight night would sap him like a sponge .
