Floyd Mayweather Jr.’s uncle and longtime trainer Roger Mayweather talks shop with FightFan.com about the upcoming fight between Manny Pacquiao and Miguel Cotto.
Some interesting excerpts from the interview:
“I don’t think he’s going to beat Cotto. If he does beat Cotto, I’ll be amazed.”
“That should tell you right there… for a little guy, he’s got some balls!”
“He didn’t beat the De La Hoya that my nephew beat. He beat a De La Hoya that was under-weight.”
“If Manny Pacquiao beats Cotto, I know it’s going to happen. That would be the biggest fight in the world for Pacquiao. It would also be the biggest fight in the world for my nephew if they were to fight in the near future.”

pacman is the best hands down..
no one is going to beat him any time soon

Mayweather turned his back on boxing. telling everyone he was above it. Now he’s spunked all his money, he wants back in. Fuck him…… Don’t give him a way back Manny. Besides Marquez will give him a beating before he gets anywhere near Manny
ok im used to pac-man haters by now so whatever this is just another chance for me to say “I TOLD YOU SO!” and this is whats gunna happen ill predict it pac-man will murder cotto then IF mayweather beats marquez Pac-man will beat Mayweather then ppl will start making excuses saying mayweather is a seasoned fighter just like they did with oscar. oh BTW it took floyd 10 rounds to knock out Hatton Pac-man only 2 Floyd beat oscar BY A SPLIT and Pac-man knocked him out IN 8 ROUNDS come on ppl!!!
looooooooseerrrrrrr mayweather!!!!!! go to home for the aged take some rest assssholleeee!!!!
actually all you ppl are wrong shows how much you know about boxing…MANNY is running from floyd as even floyd sed manny is asking for too much money so the fight cannot be made….sorry who askin for more money yeh thats right manny…im a big fan of both fighters..but first they must get past cotto and marquez respectivley before they start talkin about fight each other…
stop say anything bout the fight watch the fight until its done b4 you say any other comments ok shut the fuck off… speed and power for pacman power only in cotto who do you think? mayweather has speed and power too. but he doesnt have what manny has.the excitement of fight you can feel the sensation.but mayweather always running nonsense at all he goes run and run if he is good fighter he can box head to head and toe toe until the one GOT KNOCK OUT…
blah blah blah.
no wonder JR. loves to talk trash because of his father uncle talks lots of trash.,.
if SR. man enough ask apology for what you said about fred.
you called him cockroach but fred sipmly said
“my guy will beat your guy w/in round 3″
then poooooom.
Wasn’t it yur brother mayweather sr who trained hatton that manny pacman put to sleep. Manny will beat cotto up!!
You guys are right!..MAnny won’t fight FLOYd bec. floyd wants 50-50 fight whch is obviously he wants only the MOney thing, he doest care if he win or loss..BUT MANNY dont want 50-50, of course not!! we know that coz MANNY is p4p king!! That’s why floyd wanna fight other boxers first and prove he can match MANNY in 50-50 fight.
BTW, BEN UR STUPID NOT DANNY!! CAN U READ WHAT HE SAYS PROPERLY?? YOU JUZ UNDERSTAND IN OTHER WAY..
OF COURSE FLOYD WONT FIGHT MANNY COZ HE WANT 50-50 AND HE KNEW MANNY WONT FIGHT HIM!!
mayweather,he’s gifted.but by far no where the greatest nor is he near the gratest of no era.WHO HAS HE FOUGHT?NO NOT 1;COTTO ,MARGARITO,CLOTTEY AND OR SHANE MOSLEY. I’LL GIVE YOU 1 THING floyd you’re no fool
It’s simple, Mayweather is a has been. When he stepped out he was top dog, not top money maker. De la Hoya was the one packing in the pay per view dollars and Mayweather was riding his coat tails. But Mayweather is under the mistaken presumption that he is still top dog. He is trying to demand that Pac-man take the smaller cut of the money. Now why should Pac-man, who is acknowledged as the top dog and pound for pound best in boxing take the lesser share? Simple answer is, he shouldn’t. Mayweather knows he shouldn’t. Mayweather doesn’t want the fight to happen and demanding the big purse is his way of ducking the true top dog. He even scheduled his next fight BEFORE Pac-man fought Hatton, just so he could duck Pac-man. It’s pathetic.
im going to spank cotto all over the ring. PBF is next.
Manny will beat Cotto, Marquez will beat Gayweather with no cards left to hold. All PBG will have is his larger than life ego and hyperactive imagination to think that he’s still P4P.
MANNY IS A GREAT SMALL FIGHTER!! HE HASN’T FOUGHT ANY REAL NATURAL WELTER WEIGHTS LIKE COTTO. COTTO HAS WHAT IT TAKES TO BEAT MANNY AND MANNY IS MAKING A BIG MISTAKE FACING A MAN LIKE COTTO.. THE ONLY REASON PEOPLE THINK THAT COTTO WILL LOSE IS BECAUSE OF THE LOSE TO MARGACHITO FIGHT.. THE MAN TOOK BRICKS FOR 11 ROUNDS AND I DON’T THINK MANNY HAS BRICKS IN HIS HANDS TO STOP COTTO!! I GIVE COTTO TO KO MANNY IN THE 8TH ROUND.. OSCAR HAS BEEN DONE AND RICKY IS A JOKE.. THE REST WAS FIGHTER IN MANNY WEIGHT CLASS THAT HE WAS GREAT IN THAT DIVISION, BUT NOT WITH THE BIG BOYS.. CATCH WEIGHT WHAT A JOKE!!
YES MR. MAYWEATHER!! PACQUIAO GOT SOME BALLS HANGING IN THE RIGHT PLACES!! WHILE YOUR NEPHEW AVOIDS FIGHTING COTTO AND AVOID FIGHTING MANNY. THIS LITTLE FILIPINO WILL FIGHT ANYBODY. DOOES ANY OF YOU MAYWEATHER CLAN HVE BALLS ?? OR YOU JUST HAVE BIG MOUTHS!!
cotto or gayweather!!!
one thing for sure…
manny will knock em out cold…
dana kapangit nya amu.
mukhang matsing na ewan.
mas malala pa.
Pacquiao dominated and destroyed Cotto. Cotto fought the great fighter Pacquiao. He got served well. He is still a gentleman and he has a great heart and power. I think Cotto can beat mayweather although I think gayweather is afraid of Cotto. Cotto can probably beat margarito too if they will have a rematch.
This is so stupid… Your Nephew beat “The real de la hoya” News flash same guy… Your whole family is intimated… That’s My Honest opinion… Why would you guys go through a lot just to ask for a fight for Manny… It’s not because he’s a weak fighter thats for sure… Your Nephew wants to fight him because you guys know for a fact he’s strong… =)
