    Mayweather defeated Cotto by a unanimous decision, winning nine rounds on two judges' cards and 10 rounds on the third. Apparently, that wasn't enough to impress Roach.

    "Would Manny beat Floyd? You bet," Roach said. "The way to beat Floyd to outwork him every minute of every round. Manny is the only one capable of executing that game plan. Activity kills Mayweather. You need to stay busy against him and not let him dictate the pace by slowing down the fight. Southpaws are his other weakness. Manny is just a bad combination for Floyd to fight. If it would bring Floyd into the ring, I'd agree to have Manny fight him right handed."

    Manny's activity was stifled by precise counter punching. Freddie isn't taking the punches.

    What else would you expect him to say? That Manny would lose?

    everything that comes from Roach's mouth is so basic.

    Pac is so scared of Mayweather that Freddie trembles.

    Sure

    In the 12 round he'd have to say to despondant, bruised up Emmanuel 'Manny, you've got to put this kid on his ass for me, ok son?'

    Manny would get thoroughly out boxed and blame it on cramps again. You would think Manny bleeds once a month with the way he complains about cramps.

    You'd leave anyway. Your *******ed ass wouldn't have anything left to post about once that particular fight's over. Asides from the excuses, of course.

    Pacquiao is ducking Floyd. Even Wikipedia knows it.
