[KananKrus]

Yet another frowned upon catchweight looming, your thoughts...

Boxing - Roach wants Pacquiao-Martinez

[gest12645]

As long as the catchweight isnt going to be under 156 then I think its fair .

[CFH]

Manny Pacquiao is a fucking god if he takes this fight anywhere north of 156. I honestly think this is a bridge too far for him though, Martinez is just too big and unorthodox.

[Spicoli]

Guess the hugger rath cometh...but I think Martinez will knock Manny out Tell you what though, I have respect for Pac like no other if he takes this at a clean 156 for Martinez. I'd name my first born Manny if I had one.

[:::PSL:::]

I think Roach knows what he's doing. Matinez could use some full facial makeover.

[Rantcatrat]

Top Rank won't let another of their fighters near Maravilla. No way. Bruce Trampler is too good of a matchmaker for that. Roach can talk all he wants.

[bcollins]

I bet Martinez could still make 154 pretty easily. At 156, any of the "Pac weight drains his opponents" arguments would be ridiculous.

I still think he'd be nuts to try Martinez though - there is such a thing as pushing too far. For me, this would be the most dangerous fight out there short of Mayweather.

Roach is just saying this to cause a stir. He has no intention of letting Pac anywhere near Martinez cuz he is too good.

He had to come out with this because Pac is being slaughtered for fighting another washed up leftover and Roach is being blamed so he thinks by mentioning Martinez' name people will forgive them.
