Catch ?Weigh In Live: Mayweather vs. Pacquiao?, tomorrow at 6 pm ET/3 p.m. PT on both SHOWTIME and HBO.

Flash quotes from Floyd Sr. and Roach on Thursday at the MGM Grand:



FLOYD MAYWEATHER SR.

?To be honest with you, it?s not going to be much of a fight.

?This fight has already been won. We can beat Manny any day, any time, any year, any moment.

?Manny?s best performance was when he got knocked out by Juan Manuel Marquez.

?I think it?s best for Floyd to choose what he wants to do at the end of the year. I think he should retire, because if he sticks around, somebody is going to get you sooner or later.?



FREDDIE ROACH

?We?ve have trained so hard for this fight. This fight has two of the best fighters fighting each other.

?I?ve been training Manny for this fight for five years. We know all about him, we have covered all the bases. I think we have the winning formula to win this fight.

?If we were to lose to an undefeated fighter like this, there?s no shame in that.

?Floyd?s a good fighter, but he has picked his opponents. I don?t think he picked Manny. I think he was forced to take this fight.

?Manny was down to 143 pounds yesterday, so I told him to eat a good meal and then we will do a light workout later today. Tomorrow he will have breakfast in the morning and then get on the scale.?
