Roach continues his trend

[powerpuncher]

Roach knows Manny is on a retirement tour and he will avoid any risky fight necessary so that he can collect his salary. Do not take everything he says so seriously.

He has generally avoided the riskiest fights

Manny has generally fought Top Rank and Arum fighters. At one stage he was the 2nd best welterweight in the world.

Roach has made excuses for manny for years. I agree that he has fought some good competition throughout the years, but just like most fighters, he cherry picked those fighters. He picked fighters that had big names but knew his style matched up well against.
