Comments Thread For: Roach: Pacquiao vs. Crawford, Khan or Mikey Garcia Could Be Next

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Freddie Roach, head trainer of WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao (59-6-2, 38 KOs), is expecting a very big fight in the fall. Recently, it was announced that Pacquiao would make the first defense of his title on July 1, before an expected crowd of 55,000 people at Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane, against undefeated 2012 Australian Olympian Jeff Horn (16-0-1, 11 KOs).

Prediction: If he fights and somehow beats Crawford, the Manny-haters call Crawford a hype job. If he beats Khan they won't give him credit for that win and if he beats Mikey Garcia they say Mikey was small and came up in weight. No win situation for Pac unless he moves up to fight Wilder and Joshua on the same night.

Thats a lot of ifs lmao. Pacquiao fans have an excuse for every one of his losses on his over rated resume

Exhibit A...

All lies again just to sell the fight. Cant trust anything from these guys. He'll probably end up facing a lower ranked Welterweight like Felix Diaz. When will Pacquiao fight a dangerous opponent like Canelo and Madaina.

If only Freddie Roach really had some "say-so" in these matters! Crawford, Khan, or Mikey Garcia should not be next, they should be now! The fact that they are not now, gives me less confidence it will happen next!

It's not the haters' fault that Manny's last 3 opponents are Horn, Vargas, and Bradley! That's 3 consecutive fights that no one wanted to see! Blame Bob Arum!

Pac went from star to superstar because a fading star in Oscar gave him a shot. Therefore, he should give Crawford or Garcia a shot because they can potentially become superstars and build off of a pac fight. Khan hit his plateau about 5 yrs ago and isn't going to play a part in the future of boxing. Otherwise the only other fighters that make sense would be Thurman and the winner of Spence vs brook.
