Freddie Roach will be in Manny Pacquiao’s corner, but he gave a pretty honest assessment of his pupil’s chances on the upcoming bout against Floyd Mayweather. He spoke to Fight Hub TV about it and he broke down the contest based on several categories.
Here’s what Roach thought on who would have the advantage on the following categories:
Power: Manny
Speed: Floyd
Footwork: Manny
Stamina: Draw
Ring IQ: Floyd
Heart: Manny
Chin: Floyd
Experience: Floyd
X-Factor: Manny
