"I wanted him first the whole time. I mean, let's face it, that's the fight the whole world wants to see; the fight I want to see. He's the easiest of the three. He's not that big. He's not that strong. He breaks down quickly. He's been off for 2 years. You know, at 135 and 140, he might have been great, but at 147 and 154, I don't see the greatness...I think Manny will knock him out." -Freddie Roach Just found the vid. Mayweather comments start at the 5:30 mark. [yt]M3HhnZ4sm7o[/yt]
what about when he said that Mayweather is not a good fight for us, he will just run the whole time Roach talks a little too much we do need Pacquiao vs Mayweather though.
i believe mr. roach. he hasn't been wrong about manny. he was even right when he was upset at the 126 fights with manny and eric.
Roach is funny as hell. He is like T.O. put a mic in front of him and you are guranteed to get something good. Roach knows PBF is the truth he is not dumb. Pac vs PBF coming soon and Pac is going to get his ass whooped.
1st and foremost, if and when Pacman meets Pretty Boy, it is going to be a long night for Pac. Floyd is going to DOMINATE Pacquiao. Juan Manuel Marquez beat Pac twice, on my scorecards, using some of the best counter punching in the game. One of the only fighter on planet Earth that counter better than JMM? Floyd Mayweather Jr. Freddie Roach has said numerous of times before that Lil' Floyd is the toughest fight for Pac.
Just proves what I've already known. Roach is obsessed with Mayweather. The "Mayweather would be the easiest fight", "Mayweather is scared", and the excuses why he wants to weight drain Cotto and Mosley out of fights, points to what I've known all along. Roach wants Mayweather bad.
