Roach 'For Pacquiao to beat Mayweather he must fight the Perfect fight'

[B.U.R.N.E.R]

I got Pac beating Floyd in the first round..

Manny will KO Floyd in 3 so there's no need for 9 more rounds.

like he was going to ko cotto in a couple round and clottey?

Cotto and Clottey are B+ and B- fighters.

I'm actually a Pacquiao fan, he's my favorite fighter atm. But I appreciate the sport instead of throwing petty insults at the fighters I don't like.

Just take a look at your avatar, it isn't even that funny to be honest.

We know you're a *****. Real Pacfans registered here from 2004 to 2008.
2009 too late. My avatar is not funny to you because it's an insult to Floyd. (*****)

a bit off topic but as a boxing fan I definitely don't want Pac to go into politics in the Philippines; especially if his intent is to dramatically changed things for the poor. I don't doubt at all that attempts would be made on his life. The political situation is crazy over there & activists are murdered indiscriminately (ie., Hacienda Luisita, Maguindanao). If his aim is to help the poor, God bless him for his courage but I selfishly wish for boxing & his personal welfare that he stay out of politics. That said if he & Floyd are in top form he'd have to fight a perfect fight or risk being frustrated and losing a decision-that said, Floyd has to be damn near perfect too or risk being dropped by a quick, sharp shot.

Bob Arum, the promoter who is around the ‘National Fist’, as he is known in the Philippines, insists the popularity bares a remarkable resemblance with one M. Ali (whom he also promoted), but rather than drawing in diverse groups as Ali did, the adoration for ‘Pacman’ emanates from one race.

Win or lose, it intrigues me. While all this is going on, in the last few hours, in Hollywood, his trainer Freddie Roach has begun talking about Mayweather-Pacquiao going ahead (but Floyd Mayweather must, of course, win that fight with Shane Mosley first on May 1 in Las Vegas). Roach, whatever he may have said, does not believe Mosley will beat Mayweather. Indeed, he knows for Pacquiao to defeat Mayweather he must produce “the perfect fight”. Those are the exact words he used when explaining it to me. The perfect fight.

Roach believes Mayweather-Pacquiao will happen. It most likely will.

But will Pacquiao reach congress, and the murky world of island politics ? I doubt it. His dreams of improving life for the poor in that country are unlikely to be permitted by the ruling class. Life’s imperfect fight.
Pacquiao has his faults, well-documented in the Filipino media, and involving the occasional rumours of gambling or the attention of a famous actress or two, but given the position he finds himself in, it is remarkable that he feels the desire and the calling to go into politics

Having spent time around the small band of regular journalists on the MP beat, all good souls and superb news-gatherers and writers (who are, at times, in a difficult position because of the demand from the filipino public for every shred of possible news, and his every movement), he has spawned an industry. Amongst the journalists, and from those who look after the boxing world which Pacquiao fills, there is a concensus that the man from Mindanao is misguided. None of them really want him to go into the murky world of filipino internal affairs. I expressed this on the BBC World Service, even to the point where Pacquiao may be putting his life on the line.

Floyd knocks Manny out if they ever fight. I'd bet my life on that.

The way he knocked out the old lightweight who he asked to move up at 142 then cheated him by weighing more than 4 lbs of the weight they agreed to fight hmm?
