MANNY CAN BEAT HOPKINS - ROACH


PhilBoxing.com




East Coast, USA -- ?Floyd Mayweather would beat Manny Pacquiao because the styles that African-American fighters -- and I mean, black fighters from the streets or the inner cities -- would be successful. ? --Bernard Hopkins

"After his last fight he should just shut up! In fact Manny can beat him," this is what Freddie told this Philboxing writer last night.

Hopkins told Fanhouse.com that a black fighter's style would give Pacquiao more of a challenge than Antonio Margarito. Also, Clottey is black but not like an American black, according to Hopkins.

But Joe Mason a boxing/NFL scholar out of Phoenix, Ar. (Nash country) reiterated that Manny can?t beat black fighters because no black boxers want to mess up with Manny. I kinda agree with Mason as we all know Mayweather comes up with infinite excuse just to avoid a Pacquiao fight.

Some boxing writers say that Mayweather is indeed a genius when he said no to a multi-million dollar clash with Manny -- and Mayweather has multitude of reasons see the beatdowns of De La Hoya, Hatton, Cotto, Clottey and now Margarito.

Oh!BeerTime!
Miami Heat won big against the diminutive Suns, the Heat were happy (after back to back loss against my Jazz and the Celtics), Bosh had 35 points and 6 rebs? Barkley the top 50 NBA player of all time, now a TNT NBA analyst said, ?right now if I?ll play against the Suns I?ll assure you I?m gonna get more that 6 rebounds? Mosley fight sounds good if Mayweather is unavailable, especially if it?ll be held in Philippines as congress wants it to be? Rumble in Bohol! Or The Last Dance of Azucar? finally Emeka Okafor got his chance to show his wares as he?s the main recipient of CP3?s assists, go Hornets! And go Dell Demps Hornets? GM and former PBA import ( I should say Pepsi Team, with Dexter Shouse)? Good luck to my basketball buddy in Michigan, his name is Kelly Williams, now he?s playing for Philippine Basketball Team in Guangzhou 2010 Asiad, from Jonas Pozon and your friends here in Michigan, Kumbatea Kelly Williams!
