Floyd one

By Chris Robinson

Any given Monday after a big fight weekend, you are sure to get your share of feedback from so-called pundits and hardcore fans alike.

And while Manny Pacquiao looked fairly impressive in overwhelming former lightweight titlist Brandon Rios in Macau, China over twelve rounds, not everyone was sold on the Filipino star’s latest exhibition.

Never one to bite his tongue, outspoken trainer Floyd Mayweather Sr. was quick to give his reaction to the fight, first setting his sights on Rios.

“Yeah, I saw it,” Mayweather Sr. revealed. “I’m going to be honest with you, the guy can’t fight. Not Manny Pacquiao; the guy that he fought can’t fight.

For the past 24 hours, the boxing world has been buzzing about the altercation that took place in Macau, China between Manny Pacquiao’s trainer Freddie Roach and members from Brandon Rios’ camp, including trainer Robert Garcia and strength and conditioning coach Alex Ariza.

Pacquiao faces Rios this Saturday night in an HBO pay per view event that has seen its interest rise because of the theatrics.

In various videos that have circulated online, Roach could be seen exchanging words with Garcia and moments later getting kicked by Ariza as the dialogue continued to heat up.

The argument stemmed from Roach wanting to clear out Garcia and Rios from the gym the camps were sharing so he could work with his fighters. When Garcia attempted to explain that Rios was simply running a little behind schedule, Roach began to get irate.

Roger Mayweather will be the first person to tell you that’s he’s not terribly familiar with Manny Pacquiao’s Nov. 23 opponent, Brandon Rios.

When asked about for his thought on the Pacquiao-Rios per view clash, Mayweather needed a brief description of Rios’ qualities as a fighter before diving in with some feedback.

When advised that the Kansas native possesses grit, fortitude, and a solid body attack, Roger seemed to feel that it’s the kind of fight that Pacquiao needs at this point.

“They gave a good fight for him then,” Mayweather stated.

“I don’t know if he can beat him or not, but if the guy is tough and he brings it to him; [Rios] may get a chance to whoop his *ss,” Roger added, seeming to flip the script a bit. “Because he’s been off for a while too.”

Pacquiao last graced the ring as a professional eleven months ago when he was stopped in chilling fashion in the sixth round of his firefight with Mexico City’s Juan Manuel Marquez in Las Vegas.
