    Roach and his deluded mind. I think he is really starting to lose it. I like Manny Pacquiao, although I am picking Cotto to win, but between all the **** that Roach talks and the *******s I hope Pac gets knocked out.

    You must hate James Toney, Floyd and ALI then. Roach isn't nearly as bad as these guys and like the 3 fighters mentioned a lot of it is mental warfare on Roach's part. I think it's funny....I don't buy all the **** he says but I think it does affent th psyche of PAC's opponents.

    They are fighters not trainers. Let the ones who are going to do the walking do the talking.

    Well there were moments whe he did actually look ready to give in.But he maned up,no plaster made the difference.

    Roach is just working the press like always,don't look much into it.

    WHo was being the drama queen trying to get the other fighter DQ or a point taken away; it was Clottey. Get serious.

    Arthur Abraham didn't want to continue his fight with Miranda in round 4 BUT he finished the fight same as Cotto.

    The outcome is what matters.

    Am I missing something here? Did Cotto genuinely want to quit in the 9th, or is Roach chatting ****?

    His body language and face demeanor looked like he was about to give in and pull a Freitas.

    But he didn't.

    Because i'm a loser I just watched the 8th round of the fight and when Cotto sits down in his corner he say's 'it's over' and shakes his head.
