Following the aftermath of Mayweather's lopsided win over Manny Pacquiao, the reigning Trainer of the Year, Freddie Roach, believes Pac-Man should get another shot at redemption, with a rematch against Floyd Mayweather in the foreseeable future.
Roach says he would love for Pacquiao (57-6-2, 38 KO's) to be given another opportunity to step in the ring with Mayweather (48-0, 26 KO's)—only if he grants the Philippines native the chance—that is. "We'd love to do it again," Roach said about a potential rematch.
To put it into perspective, Pacquiao was dominated and soundly beaten for 12 rounds, missing on a heap of hits, while Money May picked his poison and strategically hit Pac-Man with a ton of jabs and counter-punches. So, a rematch may currently seem far-fetched. Similar to his disappointing loss to Juan Marquel Marquez in 2012, Manny must line up a few respectable fights to regain his 'reputation' with fans again.
For both fighters, there is always Amir Khan, who is ready and waiting in the wings to duke it out with either of them, so that might be the next plausible opponent. Not sure if there will be a second match between them, as the first bout was so one-sided.
And, secondly, how could they reel in the big bucks and PPV viewership after what went down last night. That'll be extremely difficult, to say the least.
