Comments Thread For: Roach: Pacquiao Lost A lot of His Crowd Due To Lack of Knockouts

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

If eight division world champion Manny Pacquiao (59-6-2, 38 KOs) intends to once again draw the big crowds in the United States, he needs to start knocking opponents out, according to his long-time trainer Freddie Roach. Pacquiao's popularity has declined over the last few years, which Roach attributes to a lack of knockouts and failing to display his killer instinct in the ring. Pacquiao has been without a stoppage win since the fall of 2009, when he stopped Miguel Cotto in the twelfth round.

He lost his crowd because he decided to run for office and put boxing as a hobby. He also lost his crowd because he decided to fight a Bum. If he fights a top fighter his crowd would run back.

He lost his crowd when they realize their dreams of him beating Mayweather will never happen. That was like finding out there is no Santa Claus or Easter Bunny from the guy who you thought was your dad.

The 'bible', huh? That's what you're calling it?

Being a dirty cherrypicking and lying politician cant help either...

[TreJac]

He lost a lot of his crowd because Roach claim Manny has the killer instinct back during every training camp but comes fight night, no sign of the old Manny! People just don't believe Roach lies anymore! Look at Floyd chasing Conner's MMA fans to help sell PPV because he lost a lot of his crowd also!

Giving fans fights no one wants to see probably had something to do with it as well (Rios, Algieri, Bradley III, Vargas)

[j.razor]

He lost them cuz everyone found out that he was weight draining fighters, fighting them on the losing end, fighting them after Floyd disposed of them, PEDS, letting bob control him, robbing Marquez in multiple fights, lies about his shoulder, ect. The list goes on....& I liked him before all that.

cherrypicking and losing to floyd had more to do with it.

Boxing will be better off when Manny, Cotto, Khan, Stevenson, & the five time retired Mayweather leave boxing for good!
