Trainers Roach and Mayweather Sr. Press Conference Quotes
Freddie Roach
“When this fight was announced, Manny’s training level went way up,” said Freddie Roach, trainer of Manny Pacquiao. “He’s really excited about this fight. I think we will win a decision and outpoint this guy. If the knockout comes then that will be a bonus.
“I think Manny likes to be the underdog. We like pulling upsets and doing things we’re not supposed to do. Manny is going to be that guy.
“We will put a lot of pressure on Floyd. Manny likes to exchange and with his hand speed, this fight will go in our favor. Manny is reckless, but that’s his style. He tries to win fights and people enjoy his fights. He gives it his all and sometimes you get knocked out, that’s part of boxing.”
Floyd Mayweather Sr.
“Whatever happens on Saturday, it’s going to be one-sided,” said Mayweather Sr.
“Pacquiao is going to sleep. I’m a trainer, I know what’s going on with fighters. Pacquiao doesn’t have it. Everybody can say what they want to say. I’ve said it before, Pacquiao can’t punch. I’m not worried about it. I’m going to have Floyd walk him down.”
