Freddie Roach: Manny Pacquiao mentally dialed in for Floyd Mayweather Jr.
Michael Woods
March 9, 2015
It’s getting real people, the fight that you thought wouldn’t happen is getting closer and closer to reality. It edged in that direction today, when Freddie Roach and Manny Pacquiao worked together at Roach’s famed Wild Card gymnasium in Hollywood, California, and Roach reported to RingTV.com that he was mightily impressed with Manny’s strength and speed…but also something more.
It was Pacman’s mindset of strategy and gameplan that stood out for Freddie, who was in China last week with his flyweight contender Zou Shiming, who scrapped Saturday in a title bout. “We are on the same page,” said Roach, who turned 55 on March 5, and was happy to get birthday best wishes from Miguel Cotto, among many other well-wishers. “I told Manny, ‘You’ve been watching tapes of Floyd!’ And he tells me no…but the look on his face maybe tells me yes!”
Usually, Roach said, he does the studying of tape, and imparts knowledge gleaned to The Congressman. But this time around, with the stakes, monetary, legacy, et al, so immense, Pacman is of a different mind, apparently. Roach has picked up on some Mayweather moves that are predictable, that can be exploited, he told me, and Manny is also armed with some blueprint tidbits. “He is crafty,” said Roach of the 38-year-old pugilist/specialist. “Dedham” Freddie wouldn’t tell me specifics about what he saw, but it’s something about the way Floyd sets one of his traps which Manny will be on the look-out for, the trainer told me.
“It’s a good move, but come fight time, as we work on it, when he makes that move, Manny will be totally ready for it.”
The gym will be on lock-down when sparring occurs, more so than ever before, with really only family allowed in. Kenny Sims from Chicago is in town, and Rashidi Ellis will arrive if and when his Saturday fight goes smoothly. A third name is 24-1 Kosovar Edis Tatli, the sort of team-player who is eager to learn and help the cause. Oh, and there is a fourth name in the mix, but Freddie wouldn’t say who.
“I can’t say. He’s trained at Mayweathers’ gym. When they find out, he’s afraid a little. I told the guy he can always work here!”
Oh yes, it’s game on, friends. Getting ready physically – they did six rounds of mitts today, did Manny and Freddie – and also mentally. Jockeying is being done, what with us getting word Floyd is ultra-aggressive in sparring, and me hearing that an exploitable pattern has been discovered in the Floyd-bot.
Expect much, much more as we count down to May 2, The Fight of this young century, and if Pacman wins, the most meaningful finish in a fight since Mike Tyson in 1990 was proved to be fallible.

That's not how Floyd fights especially recently. Floyd's going to set up camp in the pocket......like he always does.
Pacquiao: “I hope, this time he would be man enough to take some risks”

Aside from the unstoppable media bombardment about the Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Manny Pacquiao bout, the fans are putting forward their long thought about opinions about who will win the fight, and why. Forums are crawling with back-and-forth discussions between the Mayweather Jr. and Pacquiao fans pleading with each other as to why one is right and the other is wide of the mark about the eventual outcome of the bout.
It seems that the Mayweather Jr. fans expect the fight to go as any other for Floyd due to his unmatched technical skill and ring I.Q. In most of his fights, Mayweather Jr. tends to pick his shots and throw as counter punches, taking advantage of his opponent’s mistakes and gaps in offense.
Pacquiao fans on the other hand claim that Floyd’s defensive and offensive style will not prove as effective against Manny due to his consistent high volume output, paired with his acclaimed power and speed. The fans believe that in this fight, Mayweather Jr. will have to abandon distance, and fight every round, bell to bell.
Manny Pacquiao hopes that this will be the case as well:
“He should be aggressive during our fight so we can make the fans happy. We all knew how he fights. In fact his previous fights lulled me to sleep,” stated Pacquiao in a recent interview with Philboxing.com
If styles make fights, than the last thing that the Mayweather Jr. fans want and expect, is to see Floyd get into a physical brawl with the freight train that is Pacquiao. If lulling the viewers to sleep is required in order to come out victorious in a fight of such colossal significance, I don’t blame anyone for doing so.
“But his previous fights bored me. I hope, this time he would be man enough to take some risks. He should prove to the world that he’s a real and fearless fighter, not a runner. This fight should live up to its billing. We owe this to the fans. They should get the kind of entertainment they want” Pacquiao concluded.
