MACAU – Veteran boxing trainer Freddie Roach on Saturday said  there is no way Chris Algieri will survive 12 rounds against Manny Pacquiao.

“Impossible, he (Algieri) can't make 12 rounds with Manny... not gonna happen,” the confident Roach told a group of Filipino journalists inside the media center of The Venetian Macao here.

He also noticed the renewed eagerness of Pacquiao since they started their training camp in General Santos City.

“He's (Pacquiao) been very motivated, something changed and I don't care what caused it because I like it,” Roach added.
