"I talked to him about Mayweather when we had him in camp with us and he told me Pacquiao is faster and hits way harder than Mayweather," Roach said. "I thought Castillo won their first fight. He put pressure on Mayweather and broke him down. Whatever Floyd gives us, we'll take. Manny will him on the arms, the shoulders, wherever he can, and Mayweather will feel it. There's no way Mayweather can win the fight running, and that's what he does best." "I would love to see Manny knock this guy out and then retire," he said. "There's no place to go after that. We will break Mayweather down. He's a fragile guy. I know he is hard to get to but we will get to him. Manny can match Mayweather's speed and he has better footwork and more balls."
Sounds reasonable, nothing wrong with this. Floyd couldnt hurt a broken down JMM. PAC will walk through him. As Roach said, Floyds in great condition, PAC will test how good
I like the part where he says he will go after his arms shoulders where ever we can, they wanna break him down. Sounds like a good gameplan, since Floyd head is very hard to hit.
freddy can setup a good gameplan. Hell he had DLH go to a split decision with Mayweather. Manny just needs to learn how to cut off the ring and deal with FLoyd's movement. Put on a lot of pressure, use his in & out footowrk, back mayweather up. Mayweather will be a dead man sitting on the ropes against Pacquaio.
who's dlh going to pick to win if they ever fight? he got his ass handed to him by both fighters. he will still choose pbf saying when he fought pac he already had one foot in retirement or some **** like that.
I favour Mayweather too, but Roach has now been correct three times in a row. He's on a prediction hat trick. Not only that, but he's studied Floyd in depth before, and he was even ringside to see him fight Hoya, so he has a very good perspective of what he can do well and what his flaws are. With the right gameplan and training, who knows? I've got to the point where I'm just not going to bet against Pac anymore, even when it seems perfectly logical. Hell, ESPECIALLY when it seems perfectly logical. The man is supernatural. If anyone can beat Floyd, he can.
