    The thing is instead of floyd/manny fans flooding the forums with this s h I t why don't they go tell their guy to fight, it seems the boxers need convincing more than fans

    why did roach say that everytime he saw tape on rios he looked worse and said that paq was going to ko rios in four rounds?

    why would he say that?

    why would he predict a fourth round knockout?

    he predicted a knockout in the jmm third fight but not the fourth

    Well you seem to be clearly in the minority in terms of how most people thought he looked.

    If I had any complaint at all it was that he wasn't able to hurt Rios, but you can't go into every fight expecting a knock out. And no fighter should ever go into a fight expecting a knock out, because the mentality should always to win rounds and take a little punishment as possible. And if you watched the fight you could hear the Kellerman and Jones take about the same thing I'm taking about, that instructions given to Pac were to throw 3-4 punch combinations and move.

    I'm starting to think you never ever saw the fight, otherwise you'd know this.

    Any trainer that predicts a knock out for his fighter is acting like an idiot. All it does is create false expectations and puts undo pressure on the fighter, and gives the other fighter a psychological edge if it doesn't happen. Holyfield said the same thing when he was fighting Lewis.

    People just have high expectations of pacquaio which is a testament to how great he is. Had that been anyone else who just dominated rios like that (say for example tim bradley) people would be talking about how awesome he looked.

    well have you never been smart enough to say something to anoyher team so that they get distracted from the job of winning? when the fourth ronds comes what do the other team expect?? do they make plans to deal with it or do they nort even waste there time dwelling on maybes??

    everything Roach does is calculated to give him an advantage and thats what great trainers do from all the years ive been looking at boxing.

    Take the time to examine things a little closer and you will see whats up and you will know what time it is nucca:deal:rasta

    why did roach predict a fourth round knockout?

    he first predicted a sixth round knockout but changed it to a four after he said that paqs mitt work was the best he as ever seen and that rios is so easy to hit

    why?

    roach doesnt go about randomly making these types of predictions as he predicited a ko in jmm3 but not 4

    please explain, you know, since you "know this."

    :scaredas:

    Are you really drawing that comparison?

    ...you don't think Rios and Canelo are equatable, do you?

    I am by no means trying to change your mind about your view but seeing your reason for the views, You have either got to be trolling or you are just a plan stupid if you are going to cling to what a trainers says before a fight.
