protector cup would not be an issue on this fight , as Cotto is a good body puncher. He would surely hit the body not the balls.

I suggest for coach to bring a spare, in case of any protective malfunction

is it just me or is there something disconcerting about roach’s pronouncements of a 1st rd KO of cotto by the pacman.

while it was impressive the way roach called manny’s last 3 fights exactly the way it came to pass would it not be reasonable to think that if subsequent opponents were not impressed back then, they would surely be taking it seriously now and prepping for every strategy roach professes to employ. exactly what a good general going to battle would do.

still, roach tells the enemy i’m flying-in my bombers from the west, i’m rolling in heavy armor on highway 101 then i’m dropping my paratroopers 10 miles behind enemy lines. what do we expect the other team to do after pacquiao & co. did exactly what they said they would do in their last 3 fights? There’s the old saying “loose lips sinks ships” and i’m afraid freddie’s hubris can only spell trouble for pacquiao.

it might be pretty impressive for roach should he pull it off and may even earn him a 4th trainer of the year award and would certainly be great advertisement for his services, but i feel it diminishes MP chances for a KO/win rather than add to it. If there is conflict between his personal agenda vs. his professional job, the latter should take precedence since he is being paid handsomely for it. I feel Freddie should hold his cards close to his vest.

furthermore, isn’t this a disincentive for buying PPV when you know the fight is only going to last 1 round? surely, that could only hurt MP’s earnings.

finally, I really like the guy but I think he’s wrong this time and somebody needs to tell him to knock it off!!!

Roach is tactically wise, trying to transcend Cotto that he must go with Manny’s nuts otherwise he’ll never win.

No need for any protector cup for as long as Manny sticks to the game plan and everything will fall in place. Cotto will succumb to Pacquiao’s supertyphoon power punches.

May the best pound 4 pound boxer wins!
Manny = Pound for Pound (pounds his opponents)
Miguel = Pound for Pound (pounds the balls of his opponents)
