[My Low Place]

does the PR **** ever stop with hbo/tr/freddie/manny/koncz..

days like this make me happy that haymon doesnt do media mess.

Roach lying to deflect the criticism away from Pacquiao, this was the usual tactic used when they were ducking Mayweather. The ****** Pacquiao fans keep falling for it.

Asking for $20 mil when the PPV sales won't even cover that is what killed the fight.

roach even said burns is a good fight for manny smh..

I'm not your bruh,now finish your lunch before your dog gets cold.

Get back to me when the dindu's stop aborting their kids and killin each other in chiraq....

[Boxing Logic]

So Freddie Roach lied.

Or Koncz/Arum lied to him.

Take your pick.

Or Crawford lied. No surprise you left that possibility out.

As long as he's still fighting it's cool by me whoever the opponent is. It's understandable why he ducked Khan and Crawford, they are way too risky for him now. Manny's paid his dues, his fights are now going to start verging on exhibition bouts.

He may of swerved Crawford but glass jawed Khan are you for real....lol!!!

Or Crawford lied. No surprise you left that possibility out.

So you think Crawford did ask for $7 million?

How is Manny fading? He just outclassed Vargas. He outclassed Bradley before that. The only hiccup Manny has had is losing to Floyd. Who happens to be the best fighter of Manny's era. That doesn't mean Manny is fading. It just means he's not as good as Floyd. Newsflash.......he never was.

As for Manny only fighting for the fans. That's 100% horse****. Manny is fighting because he needs money and has no other sources of real income. If he was doing it for the fans, Crawford would be a priority. And he wouldn't even entertain this Horn nonsense.

Good post man!

He may of swerved Crawford but glass jawed Khan are you for real....lol!!!

He ducked Khan to fight Algieri, then ducked Khan again to fight Bradley for the third time. It's common knowledge at this point, not even a contestable issue.

I don't think anyone is expecting more from Pacquiao than they are from Crawford. This is simply one of the best fights that can be made in boxing, and the fans want to see it. Crawford has displayed his willingness to fight any game opponent and that's the attitude that all boxers need to take for the sake of the sport.

Easier said than done.

From a Crawford fan, I am still trying to figure out why he passed up on Felix Diaz in his last fight.

Felix Diaz is game, willing and looking for a big name in the Lt.WW and WW to challenge.

He was passed up for the slow, pondering and predictable Molina who seemed to be looking for one last payday.

I still would have picked Crawford to win on paper but that would have been a lot more interesting than Molina!

People hear Roach blame somebody and run with it like crazy.
