Comments Thread For: Roach Yearns For Manny Pacquiao vs. Mikey Garcia in The Fall

[Larry the boss]

how many 130-135 pounders has he fought? I remember he made that jump himself...so did Floyd, Mosley etc

My point is why are they mentioning him fighting Loma or Garcia?? and now this Horn dude?? it is a disgrace to a fighter like Manny

[SplitSecond]

None of this talk interests or seems believable to me because they are fighting Jim Corn or w/e his name is.

As I predicted in another thread, the haters will dump all over this one too. Mikey is a big 135, walks around at 150 - 155. They are the same height. Mikey has the advantage in youth, while Pac has the advantage in speed and experience. Their power is about equal. If they meet at 140-142 there should be no problem with this fight. None of you haters had a problem with Marquez leaping two weight classes to fight Floyd at a catchweight that Floyd never bothered to make.

you have no idea what weight Garcia walks around at.

People are crapping on the idea of this fight because they want to see Manny fight the other ww champs, Crawford or top ww's, not LW's.

Wouldn't you as a boxing fan prefer to see Manny fight Thurman, Brook, Spence or Crawford rather than Mikey right now?

These are lower weight guys who have all said they are moving up in weight like how Robert Guerrero and Maidana did.

As for Horn who is a welterweight all I can think of is that it's a unique situation to have him fight in Australia for a big purse

"Unique situation". hahaha that made me LMFAO!

[JASON SHAW]

The latest rumor is that Pacquiao will fight JASON SHAW after Horn. Pacman even agreed to give JASON SHAW homefield advantage and will fight him in his trailer park.

IM READY TO TRAVEL TO THE BUMLIPHINNES ANYTIME TO FIGHT THAT MIDGET CHERRY PICKER.... I WOULD BE PROUD TO BE HIS BIGGEST CHERRY IN HIS LIFE... THAT DIRTY WHORE MONGER ALCOHOLIC POLITICIAN HAS NO SHAME LEFT... MAYBE AFTER ME HE WILL FIGHT HIS DADDY CUCKROACH IN A RETIREMENT PHIGHT.....

Mikey Garcia admitted in an interview with Ring Magazine that he walks around as high as 161...

Crawford is not a WW either, but that fight can still be made next year if he chooses to move up. He says he wants the fight but meanwhile he is fighting Molina and Diaz. We'll see.

Getting a fight with Thurman means negotiating with Haymon. It can be done, but Thurman is setting his sights on winner of Brook/Spence.

Pac tried getting fights with D. Garcia and Broner, but they turned down $4M+ each. Danny Garcia would rather fight Thurman for $2M than Pac for $4M, that speaks volumes.

I would rather see Pacquiao vs. Mikey Garcia @ 140 than Pacquiao vs. Thurman @ 147! That being said, I do want to see Thurman vs. the winner of Spence Jr. vs. Brook!

I would rather see Pacquiao vs. Mikey Garcia @ 140 than Pacquiao vs. Thurman @ 147! I think it would be a great fight, and a great way for Manny to retire!
