  • Comments Thread For: Roach: Pacquiao Will Have a Tune-up, Then I'd Love Mikey Garcia

    Freddie Roach, head trainer of WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao (59-6-2, 38 KOs), views 2012 Australian Olympian Jeff Horn (16-0-1, 11 KOs) as the perfect stay-busy fight. The fight will take place on July 2nd [July 1 in the United States] from the Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane, Australia.

    I hope Freddie means to say that Horn is the tune-up, and then Mikey Garcia is next! 140 is the perfect catch-weight! Pacquiao vs. Garcia! Make it happen! Terence Crawford has next!

      I figured Horn was the tune up fight. They want another tune up after this then a "real" fight"?

      There is no way Bob is going to make a Pac/Garcia fight after Mikey just left TR.

        if they fight mikey, it will not be at 140, even if pac can still make 140, they're not going to go down. they will make the fight at 144 and mikey will have to either take it or not because "a-side".

          I might be mistaken, but didn't Roach want Crawford to come to 147?

              I think so. I just think its silly to bring up Mikey knowing the fight will not happen.

              I just can't believe they need another tune up. Just fight one of the other WW champs FFS.

                Agreed. It ain't gonna be Garcia anytime soon. Either a Crawford fight is going to happen or a Lomachenko fight. Or Pacquiao retires completely.

                Garcia made bob mad in when he left TR.

                    Huh? Roach just said they are looking for another tune up before a big fight. SO its not going to be one of them because they can both beat Manny. SO its probably Alex Saucedo who is a TR ww and ranked by the WBO.
