"He could also run all night. I have fallen asleep at a couple of his fights before. So I am ready for whatever he brings to the ring."
Pacquiao, 36, set up his training camp for the richest fight in boxing history in a private facility built underneath Roach's Wild Card Gym in Los Angeles.
They gutted the old laundromat that was there and replaced it with a de facto war room where Roach and Pacquiao have been crafting the plan they believe will end Mayweather's unbeaten record.
Roach said the new gym allowed Pacquiao to escape the clamour and chaos of the Wild Card that comes with having the Filipino superstar training there.
"I blocked the gym off and we kept it private. This camp I didn't have Manny trying to perform for an audience, he was performing for himself," Roach said.
Roach said earlier he thought Mayweather's unusually quiet demeanour in the build up to the fight was a sign he lacked motivation.
Pacquiao meanwhile went for a "light" run Thursday morning followed by another low-key workout in the afternoon.
"We are not focused on one strategy but two or three strategies," Pacquiao said earlier in the week.
"Any way he wants to fight me is good. If he wants to run we will cut the ring off."
Roach is using Mayweather's fights against Zab Judah and Oscar De La Hoya as blueprints for what they want to achieve in the ring.
Mayweather beat Judah by a unanimous decision in 2006 and De La Hoya by a split decision a year later.
Roach said if De La Hoya had continued to use his jab effectively in the later rounds he could have beaten Mayweather.
"Oscar beat him in the first six rounds and lost to him in the last six. Oscar started following him around. We will improve on that. Zab just started tiring."
Asked about former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson's comment that Mayweather was "a very small, scared man", Roach said he agreed.
"Mike knows a lot about boxing," said Roach, who believes Mayweather's 38-year-old legs may not be as elusive as they once were.
"I don't think his legs are there anymore. He can't move like he used to. We will catch him," Roach said.
