also, ROACH knows something about mayweather... and when Roach has identified a weakness of the opponent... he knows how to expose them... i believe after training de la hoya for his fight against mayweather, he exactly knows how to defeat him and he was his target all along... this is because, if you look at all the fights that pacquiao has taken... they are all fights that puts mayweather in a position to fight pac... de la hoya, hatton, and the guy that mayweather dodges the most... cotto...its essentially making a statement "i fought who ever u fought and did not want to fight, so come fight me"... with that thought, pac will expose this weakness and has the best chance of putting an L on mayweather's record...


Just want to comment on a couple things here but I do wanna say first that I would love Pacquiao to win but am not without reason that Mayweather is a skilled fighter.

First: Marquez and Judah are not what I would consider slow fighters..as a matter of fact Marquez hung with Pacquiao twice. Mayweather just has exceptional speed.

Second: Only recently has Mayweather been the larger guy in the ring but if you look at most of his fights he is not the larger guy. As a matter of fact he was the same size as Judah for that fight and smaller than De La Hoya(poosy).

Third: Cotto and Mosley(lol). You can't be serious ! Cotto is a good fighter and I LOVE to watch his fights because they are always good but he would be destroyed by Mayweather due to his speed and precision. Cotto would not be quick enough to counter Mayweather's punches and due to his poor fighting stance he would get rocked. Also he's been knocked down by lesser fighters than Mayweather.
Mosley is just an over the hill guy with no jab and not quick enough reflexes to hang with Mayweather. Mosley just needs to stop. His fight against Cotto was terri-bad !
