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

Bradley alone smokes all the "top" welterweights Mayweather has. A 1 dimensional Maidana, a heartless cuck in Ortiz, a C-class Guerrero. LOL what a resume.

It's better than fighting Horn and Vargas, holy ****

[marikudo]

fight a legit top ten welterweight or retire....mikey has business to handle at 135...come on man..stop pulling lightweights and junior welters up already

You might be on crack. Who did Pacquiao fought coming from lightweight or junior welterweight? As far as I know, Pacquiao has fought guys bigger than him.

Didnt mayweather beat manny 2 years ago?

that alone killed your weak argument.....floyd fought mosley after a big win over margo....manny fights him after going years without a win...am i lying?

Mosley? Mosley was passed his prime and was 1 year inactive against Mayweather. I don't even consider Mosley a good win for Pacquiao. Mosley required a 1 dimensional plodder cheater in Margarito to look good, and even then he was inactive for a year before he fought Margarito.

He has 2 A level passed his prime fighters in his resume and one of them was inactive and then the rest are C or B class fighters. Man, that is some resume in welterweight.

Mikey Garcia?? a guy who is fighting at 135?

Go talk to Floyd fans about that man, i didn't mention Floyd. And please, Vargas is terrible, who cares if he held a belt?

How do you know who is stepping up to fight him? There is no proof that they offered Danny Garcia a Pac fight but you keep saying it. Danny Garcia begged Pac in an interview that he wanted a Pac fight so why would he turn it down?

I doubt Pac fights anybody risky, he doesnt want anything to do with any top WW which is why he is fighting Horn. Why doesn't he fight Porter?

Let me start by saying I don't support a fight with Horn. It is a BS fight and there is clearly more in this for Arum than there is for Pac. Arum wants to showcase Conlan on the undercard to get him global exposure.

Vargas was no less a champion than Ortiz, and I'm not saying he is an elite level fighter, but if anyone is going to use titles as a defense for fighting someone, then why can't Pac? Someone had to fight Vargas for that belt.

I think that after Horn, Pac will fight one or two top level opponents before retiring. Like I said, Thurman is at least a year out if he is fighting winner of Brook/Spence later this year. It is widely known in boxing circles Danny and Broner turned down $4M to fight him.

Porter is a good fight, but I think Pac still wins that. And, the Pac haters would still shyt on it because they'll say Porter was Pac's former sparring partner.

The haters can balk all they want about Mikey being smaller (when he walks around at 160+ bigger than Pac) and Crawford coming up in weight even though he is much bigger than Pac, but Pac has earned his position on the P4P landscape and don't think for a minute there aren't dudes ducking him even at this stage of his career.

This from a guy who had no problem with Marquez coming up from 135 to fight Mayweather at a catchweight that Floyd didn't even bother to make?

Yes, Mikey Garcia...a guy who walks around at 160+ and has been beating on smaller guys his entire career. A guy who has been calling out Pac for the last two years. A guy who likely enters that fight heavier than Pac. A guy who spars with WWs and MWs.

Can you show me where there is proof of Broner and Garcia turning down the fights? I saw Arum talk and he said they never even mentioned Broner as an opponent so where are you getting this from? I'm interested to see it.

At least Porter is a live dog in WW right now though, it would be a great win actually, whoever makes an excuse for that is an idiot.

brandon rios....chris algieri....where did they fight most of their career and win titles



as far as i know, you dont know much lol

hardly anyone he has fought at 147 had more than 3 fights there before he fought them

smoke and mirrors.....manny was weighing 138+ the night of the fight...when he fought at featherweight and 130......over ten years ago


he cut weight like everyone else.....dude is older now...he isnt a lightweight himself anymore

you dont know **** about boxing bro

[Kigali]

...and people still think Manny is a top WW that can beat Thurman.

He won't go near a WW

[GOD-FR33]
