Stopped reading after that. Even roach admitted that Manny's only chance is a decision...mayweather aint hitting the canvas at ANY time in the fight.Manny is a good fighter..he can bang, but Mayweather is a great BOXER.Mayweather could hold his own in the 80's with the likes of Sugar Ray leornad based on pure boxing skill alone. Pac would get KO'd and embarassed due to his limited boxing skills. That's the difference.But this controversy doesn't surprise me. His rapid weight gain is very suspect. The guy was losing to a shot Morales and getting rocked by Marquez less than 2 years ago.
Take the test and remove any doubt.I still think the fight happens. Too much money on the table.pacquiao would BATTER marquez in a trilogy.maybebut most objective boxing fans believe he lost to Marquez twice.and he hasn't fought a counter puncher since then.Hatton and Cotto were both flat footed fighters who come forward with no defence(poor fundemental boxing skills). De la hoya was a walking corpse.Mayweather will be the first skillful counter puncher he has faced since the Marquez fight and i've seen nothing to suggest he can stop Mayweather countering him all night.I can see him getting Gatti'd. real talk.
