What Freddie Roach Really Meant About His Not Getting Paid For Oscar Bout:
1. Somebody better tell that bartender over at the Stone Pony to put more cranberry in with the vodka next time. I was whacked after three rounds. Talk about a bottomless pour!
2. I meant I expect no pay if Manny Pacquiao LOSES EVERY ROUND.
3. I want my full percentage but I will donate my earnings to Floyd Mayweather Sr. so he can buy some of those slick clothes from the Stacy Adams catalog. Give it up to Floyd Sr., he is the sharpest dressed trainer around.
4. I was joking, what I said no pay for Caddy Roach if Manny loses to Oscar in golf.
5. I want all my money if it?s a disputed outcome and you know I will personally dispute any outcome which could cause me to get stiffed for a jackpot like this.
6. All right, so you got me on tape. Can I get 40 percent of my money?
7. It must be those Hollywood nights in those Hollywood hills to say something goofy like that.
8. Hi, my name is Freddie and I am a Pacaholic.
9. When I said ?free,? it was in reference as to how happy it makes me not being the Golden Boy house trainer any longer. Like in free, free at last, thank Richie Rich Schaefer, I am free at last.
10. I meant what I said. If Da Pacman does not beat Old Broken Trigger, I do not want a penny for my prefight training or fight night corner work. However, I am demanding a $1.5 million fee to cover my going to press conferences, chatting with the media and so on. This is non-negotiable.
