Comments Thread For: Roach: Crawford Who? That Won't Sell, Pacquiao-Garcia Will!

[////]

the article actually softens up his real quote.

It may be an attempt to soften but it ended up being a completely different statement. He literally says a black guy from Nebraska (Crawford) wouldn't bring the ratings a Mexican would in the US.

He doesn't say jack **** about "past bouts against African-Americans" unless the journalist deliberately left it out.

Trying to save you guys from arguing about a fictional topic but whateva.

I am trying to explain it to you in very simple terms. The part you pasted is not a Roach quote. Only the parts within quotations are statements by Roach. If you're having difficulty with this then I cannot assist you any further.

There is a major socioeconomic/education gap on this website and critical reading skill is part of that gap. It's not that important to me.

What he said was still an admission that they're choosing opponents based on potential income rather than merit, but he made no such observations about Pacquaio's past bouts.

wtf are you talking about he says clear as day filipino vs black doesnt sell well. not sure what youre trying to spin

Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach, who handles WBo welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao, does not view Terence Crawford as a big enough name to do a major pay-per-view event. Pacquiao and Crawford, who are both promoted by Top Rank, appears to be a very viable fight. But for whatever reason the boxers appear to be heading in different directions for the moment.

Crawford and Mikey need to fight and winner gets Pac

Danny Garcia just lost to Thurman so why wouldn't Pac fight Thurman? Or Pac vs Spence?? Boxing makes zero sense most times. Pac wants eaSY WINNABLE FIGHTS NOTHING MORE. duh?

[icha]

Pac needs to retire...

Roach don't want Pacquiao to get that work lol Mikey fighting Broner and I doubt they seriously wanna fight Danny Garcia anyway. That's a fight I'll believe when I see it. Also why go after Danny when Keith already took his belt let pac unify.
