Freddie Roach "Manny's people asked me not to let him spar Amir"

They see him as a future potential opponent so the dont want them to spar.

 

Are you dense? He says, "Manny's running out of opponents - Manny vs. Amir would sell. Somebody asked me not to let them spar for that reason." Not only does he NOT say it's "Manny's people" who asked him, he gives you the exact reason why they aren't sparring and it has nothing to do with one "punishing" the other.

**** off with this ******ed ****.

 

Rather stupid from Pacquiao people. Sparring or not sparring would be the same advantage/disadvantage for both. In fact the more experienced fighter could get more looks out of these sessions.

No problem though, Khan will find other quality sparring.

Too much of a hassle having to clean up the shattered glass Khan would leave I guess.

 

I told everyone...Pac cannot beat Amir Khan...Pac would have to be God to beat Amir Khan...Not cuz Khan is Good, but because Pac is NOT God...Pac CANNOT beat a guy that is taller, longer arms, and faster...Cuz he depends on his speed to overwhelm his opponents...and if u take away his speed advantage, he gets pummeled...but nahhhhwwwll...No one listens to Murka...everyone says Murka is crazy...Told thadass and ya just wouldnt listen!

 

That fight could happen soon, so Manny's people dont want Khan gaining an advantage by sparring with Manny in this training camp. Thats what I got from this interview.

 

That interview was done in March 2011. I think that Amir is sparring with Pac now in Pac's training camp.

 

That fight shouldn't happen. They're friends, who must see each other and train together regularly, and they have the same trainer...it would be way too awkward for them to fight. Sparring is one thing, but an actual fight is another. It's also just another distraction from the match we really want to see, Pac/Floyd.

 

Margarito must be 5' then, what do you think? :hat

 

No...Margarito is taller, Slower, easy to hit and Has no power...I never said Pac couldnt beat a bigass punching Bag....Its an amalgam of the three...a guy that is TALLER, FASTER, WITH LONGER ARMS...LMAO...and Margarito was tailor made for Pac...comes forward with no defense whatsoever...Amir is a runner that goes in and out like Pac....but with better countering abilities...better hide that silly comment or else I gotta tell u like Floyd told Seckback..."Dont be stupid now!"

 

Yep. As soon as Floyd beats him, Arum will send over the standard leftovers contract.
