Comments Thread For: Roach: Pacquiao Should Retire Now; 'Getting Older Sucks!'

[BillyBoxing]

Eubank is a world champion who had one bad night where he didn't even lose that badly, and has been on a knockout streak ever since.

Meanwhile....

Lomachenko WOULD be included had he not gotten beaten ragged by Orlando Salido - with whom he still has problems and has yet to rematch to avenge the loss; not to mention his tendency to drain everyone on the way to the top. And I say this as a fan of his.

Oleksandr Usyk ain't fought nobody yet. 12 fights?

I'd give you Tyson Fury, but he's self-destructive.

Clinchko just got outboxed in his last two fights and he's at the end of his career.

I'd give you Daniel Geale had he not gotten stopped by Cotto.

I'd give you Billy Joe Saunders - as a fan - but he's like Calzaghe, barely eeking out victories nowadays.

I'd give you Vyacheslav Glazkov, except he went life or death with a known quit artist in Malik Scott.

THAT is why they're not listed.

Now...who else is even worth mentioning?

What a bunch of bias.

Eubank jr doesn't even hold a real world title, the IBO belt isn't truly recognized, but had a bad night.

Loma lost to salido by SD in his second pro fight wich is ridiculous.
He's a two division world champion in less than 10 fights and obviously should be regarded as one of the next big thing.
Russel jr and Walters are 2 very solid wins.

Loma and Usyk to begin with are gold medalist and that's why they should be mentionned.

I was talking eastern euro fighters so I don't how Daniel Geale is linked to the topic.

I guess I'm trading with a casual because you doesn't know a lot about the sport.

Do your homeworks bro.

Look, I get it. You want more white fighters on the list, you're just afraid to come out and say it. So would I. But they need to show up and they haven't yet with the POSSIBLE exception of Billy Joe Saunders. Counting gold medalists that haven't done jack in the pros isn't how this works.

IBO title is as world as it gets. It's got a more stored history than the WBA and is much more recognized OUTSIDE the United States along with IBF. That's likely your issue.

When Loma avenges that loss, he will take his rightful place. It's petty for you to dismiss the loss as just his second yet refuse to acknowledge he shouldn't have taken that fight that soon in the first place.

Done.

I think part of the problem is Roach is old as dirt and couldn't tell in training PAC was slipping.

He's been talking about it for a while, but then he tries to sell the fight in training camp.

[IMDAZED]

Roach needs to retire first.

[Golden Boi 360]

Nothing is going to change. Pacquiao will fight again, Roach will say the old Manny is back during camp, and Manny will go life and death and probably lose.

I don't want more white fighters on the list, but just the right people at the right place.

Has Eubank avenged his loss to Saunders?

No, so why dissing Lomo?

I'm not from the US and IBO is shyte everywhere except in place where boxing is small.

It's just ridiculous to praise/rank more Eubank jr than Loma.

Yet you still defend that ridiculous statement.

He should retire now. Yesterday It was a rematch or move on to bigger and better fights. F**K Roach.
