here we go again. 1st arum, now roach. "oh, my gawd these guys pac is facing are so difficult. what are we to do" :roll:
Freddie Roach is the Phil Jackson of mind tricks in boxing.. He says this little **** to throw off everybody. always puts in a good game plan.
Pac has repeatedly said that he doesn't care about the fight, and has made no serious effort to make the fight.
No not exactly accurate, we saw Floyd make concessions and work toward getting a fight done, it was Manny who wouldn't go inside of 24 days. Beyond that they were blatantly dishonest about what they "agreed to" and were found to be dishonest multiple times during the process. It wasn't "they couldn't agree", Manny's team couldn't agree, PBF's team worked to get the fight done. They were willing to go go to mediation, they agreed to the glove size, weight penalty, money split, and ring size. Manny and team got up from the table and walked away from the fight because they wouldn't go inside a 24 day window, period. Pac moved on and immediately signed to fight Josh Clottey, while PBF went on to fight and beat the #1 WW at that time in SSM.
These dudes know what you are saying is the truth. They just want to block it out of their minds as if it never happened.

The only concession Floyd made was agreeing to the stupid weight penalty. Seriously...that's it. Other than that BOTH sides agreed to the gloves, venue, ring size ect.... Even the purse Split was 50/50. The only issue was the accusations that led to the demands. Neither side could agree on the cut off date and hit a stale mate. Both sides went to mediation and nothing came of it b/c neither side could find that "common ground". The only side that went BEYOND the half way mark in trying to get this fight done was PAC's side. Everything on Floyd side was reasons NOT to fight. Manny ended up walking away b/c Floyd wouldn't negotiate further than 24 days until AFTER where he agreed to 14. It was just a coincidence that they budged AFTER negoitations broke down. It seems like Floyd's timing isn't as good outside the ring as it is in it.
Yes, Roach has always wanted a third Marquez fight.....thats why they waited till Marquez is 38 years old and are going to drag the fight to 147 lbs when by their own admission Pacquiao can make 140 lbs with ease. Whats worse is that Roach sees this as a chance to shut Marquez up and according to his words, "prove the Pacquiao deserved to win the first two fights.":rofl:rofl:rofl
So who would you suggest as an opponent for Pacquaio? The best possible opponent for Pacquiao is afraid to face him(Floyd). Pacquiao will beat Ortiz(was awed and Pac feather weight version power, mentioned Pac is too strong for him), Berto and Bradley. Another thing being undefeated does not mean a better opponent, just look at Lopez vs Solis, Lemieux vs Rubio, Karas vs Jones(Karas should have won in the first fight), Berto vs Ortiz etc.
he always says annoying ****, so whatever floats your boats *****s.. meanwhile jeff said there was a contract being written and roger says Hatton's supposed to beat Pacquiao cause he's bigger..
bingo and again....these manny fans already have the built in validation excuse for this fight that "at least manny n marquez will come in the ring at the same weight" when they cried about how marquez couldnt carry his skills north of 140 and he hasnt beaten anyone there or proven himself..... jmm is ripe for the picking now just when they need to put on a good show after a few uninspiring fights.... This content is protected roach said theyd beat floyd...several times....even though pac doesnt have the advantages....so hes definitley being honest"...lol...so freddie is supposed to say "wed probably lose"...lolol and doby...quoting jeff mayweather...as if he has any real insight as to what floyds doing
