    Wasn't it Floyd who wants to come back from retirement?
    I heard Roach wanted to fight Hatton at 140lbs...not PBF.

    pac-hatton at 140 lbs is a good fight

    pac-hatton at 138 lbs is not.

    It was freddie roach throwing Floyd's name around in interviews, and I don't blame him, or for saying that pac wouldn't fight at 147 lbs.

    He knew Floyd would not fight under 147(why would he?) and he knew Floyd is rightfully a favorite at 147 lbs.

    I'm absolutely convinced that the fight will not happen unless it happens at 147 lbs. Floyd will not chase after Pacquiao down to territory he has already conquered.

    wow this video shows that Roach clearly sees Margarito as a better WelterWeight than Floyd Mayweather


    Also i'm ready to bet that if Cotto avenges his loss to Margarito, Pacquiao will fght him.


    also, I hope Roach doesn't underestimate and overlook Hatton.

    one of the best roach interviews so far :good

    I don't see your logic, bro, why Pac should fight the four fighters you mentioned when Hatton is a welterweight title holder. Legacy wise, fight against Hatton is better than those lower weight division fighters. Besides, because of his size and style of fighting, he's a more dangerous fighter for Pac.

    PBF needs the money so he is not in a postion to dictate the terms. Should be catchweight about 142- 144.

    The most well known fighters these days fight exhibition type novelty events (in general)so it wont be Am,PW,Cotto etc.....the sport doesnt work like that anymore.

    If they fight at 147, Pac has no chance to win.

    The fight should be at 140 or somewhere between 140-147 to make it interesting.

    People said the same before the DLH fight, yet the fight is over and shot excuses are all over.

    I really want to see this fight- if Floyd really needs the money then its either De La Hoya 2 in the summer or the winner of Pac Hatton in October
