Lee Beard "Pacquiao makes a lot of mistakes.."

There has been a lot of discussions surrounding this issue and it all boils down to the individual fighter and knowing Ricky like I do and having been out there for the past few camps, around 5 weeks or so is an ideal amount of time as it gives you time to adjust and get into Vegas time as well as having plenty of time for hard training. Any longer and it starts to grate on you a little. For Ricky I don't think it benefits him mentally, some people like to be away from everything and some don't. If Ricky was locked up for a long time it would drive him crazy and he wouldn't be in the right place mentally if he was there any longer than say 6 weeks but that's just my opinion."
On Pacquiao stating Ricky is one dimensional and Freddie Roach claiming that if Pacquiao boxes he wins easy.
"I have been to 's gym, and watched him train a couple of times and he makes lots of mistakes, mistakes that he also makes in fights. All fighters make mistakes but you have to be able to capitalise on them mistakes, for example against Mayweather Ricky couldn't capitalise on the mistakes Floyd was making. In this fight I believe that Manny will make the same mistakes as normal and Ricky will capitalise."
"If Ricky does get his shots off when these mistakes are made this fight could be a lot easier for Ricky than people think. I've seen sparring partners brought in for Ricky that were 130-135lbs and one guy, first time Ricky hit him it was over, he lasted 50 seconds, he had the fastest hands I'd seen and he ran around the ring and I thought to myself, Ricky may struggle to land a punch here, but then he did land one to the chest and the guy hit the deck and didn't get back up, they had to send him home there and then. So what I'm saying is that Ricky is a big Light Welter and Manny is in good shape for the weight but he is naturally smaller, in his fight with Marquez he was hit with a left hook that shook him, now I believe if Ricky were to land that same shot Manny would be knocked out"
"When Ricky hits Manny he is going to be shocked at the power, when Manny fought Oscar, Oscar was dead at the weight and never landed anything"
"If Ricky had of fought Oscar that night I think he would have stopped him earlier than Manny and I think that Diaz would have also been taken out earlier"
"Manny makes some massive errors and he is very repetitive in some of his movements and with certain punches and the way he throws them. "
"I think that Ricky will stop Manny within 6 rounds, I think the first time Ricky gets hold of him and unloads Manny wont know what's hit him. Ricky is a big Light Welter and has been in with some huge punchers, people like Kostya Tszyu and Juan Urango, obviously they haven't got the speed of Manny but Ricky has seen the speed before in Mayweather."
Which Sparring Partners would Lee like to see:
"I think the only one that's near to Pacquiao in terms of style is Edwin Valero and thats who I'd like to see us get in. I think that if you can adjust to him then its the closet thing you can get to Pacquaio and his record would suggest he hits as hard if not harder than Manny"
"If Manny is allowed to get into a rhythm in the first few rounds then it will be a very difficult fight for Ricky so he needs to make sure that he works hard in the gym to work on certain things to avoid Manny getting into that rhythm"
Lee on the prospect of Ricky getting cut in the fight
"Both fighters are similar height and there styles could mean their heads clashing and with Manny preferring Cleto Reyes gloves which are known as a punchers glove, so cuts are a concern but Ricky hasn't been cut badly in a while so I'm not thinking to much about cuts."
