Roach just stated that he knows the fight between Floyd and Pac will be tough to make because both fighters want the bigger share. roach said that he thinks that he would have to be a 50/50 to make the fight happen but that will be tough. "Mayweather is hardheaded, and Pac now has an ego and wants the bigger share" When asked what does he like about the matchup with Floyd and he said "Its a tough matchup for Manny, I think he can win but its tough, Floyd isnt going to engage Manny and that is when Manny is at his best. Floyd is a counterpuncher" Roach is also off in the interveiw stating that Manny lost twice but its was a long time ago...but manny has lost 3 fights. He stated that Manny beat Marquez twice:nut
he's pretty much spot on on everything. When he's talking about the 2 losses he means those losses from when he was young. He wasn't talking about the Morales loss which Pac avenged twice by KO. Style matchup favours Floyd and so does size but Pac can still overcome that because he is the better fighter. Pac beat Marquez twice but the first time the judge made a scoring error, something that the judge admitted post-fight. Roach just tells it like it is.
Well, that should tell you cats that think the fight is going to happen that its likely not going to happen. Pac wants 65% Floyd wants 60% and since you cant have 125% your not going to get a fight
In what sense of the word. Floyd is the better boxer and Manny is the better pure fighter. But they are in a boxing ring and usually boxing happens more than fighting.
Styles my friend..When is there ever been a Pac fight were he didnt look good when the guy he was fighting walked right to him??? Hatton walked right to him, Oscar did nothing, he was a zombie. Dont let the it took Floyd 10 rounds to get hatton out of there bull**** fool you. Remember Taylor beat Hopkins twice, who beat the **** out of Pavlik who beat the **** out of Taylor twice. Also Cotto beat Shane who beat Margo who beat Cotto...Its about STYLES and in this fight Pac is at a style disadvantage and Roach admitted as much in his interview.
How can Manny ask for the bigger share when: Mayweather did better PPV numbers against DLH and HAtton and he is going to do better numbers against JMM? It is clear who should be getting the bigger share Pac has ZERO personality and unlike Hatton brings in ZERO foreign revenue for the fight.
