DOES Roach NOT shut up?
While Manny Pacquiao has yet to hit the gym, his trainer Freddie has already started devising the training regimen and fight plan for the Filipino pound-for-pound king’s showdown with the tough Miguel Cotto of Puerto Rico.
In an interview on Doghouse Boxing, the award-winning trainer said he sees no problem with Cotto’s power and counterpunching as they’d come to the Nov. 14 showdown armed with an airtight strategy meant to neutralize such assets of the Puerto Rican bomber.
“I have already watched several hours of Cotto’s fights. I have been concentrating on how well he did against Shane Mosley. How he neutralized Shane’s speed," Roach said, referring to the November 2007 fight that saw Cotto beating Mosley via unanimous decision.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Of course, Cotto’s power is a major concern for me but I really think that we will have no problems. I’m training Manny not to get hit.
– Freddie Roach, trainer--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Yes, we will have a great game plan for Cotto," Roach assured.
As to the noted power of Cotto (27 KOs in his 34 wins), Roach expressed confidence the Pacman’s “really good chin" would more than hold up to it.
“Manny is not going to back out for anybody. Manny has a really good chin because he has a big heart. Of course, Cotto’s power is a major concern for me but I really think that we will have no problems. I’m training Manny not to get hit," he said.
After his two-round annihilation of erstwhile light-welterweight boss Ricky Hatton last May, Pacquiao has been savoring his victory and honoring his non-boxing commitments, especially his movie and TV projects.
But knowing his chance to win an unprecedented world title in a seventh division, Pacquiao has vowed to go all out once training camp begins by September.
Roach said the 30-year-old Pacquiao would have the first stages of training camp in high-altitude Baguio City before winding up at the WildCard Gym in LA.
“Because of (US) immigration laws, he must spend five weeks training outside America. The laws say we can spend 183 days (yearly) in America and that means the last three weeks of training will be here at the WildCard. Right now the plans are to train in Baguio City in the Philippines at the Olympic Training Center," he said. - GMANews.TV
NOT GET HIT???? Has Roach lost his mind? Is he ok?
he's lost it
pac will get hit
and i doubt he will be prepared for it
i'm not cocky about winning it all
i'm just looking foward to see an amazing fight
i just don't think either side should be so confident
What logic is that? If I could cure Roach- I would, but I cannot--therefore, I'll ridicule the disease he has because I don't like his comments. How exactly has Roach disrespected Cotto? How are you any different from the Pachuggers who insult Pacquiao's opponents? I don't see a difference. Peace.
its no cause and effect numb nuts - NO ONE - is above being made fun of, not your cock sucking parkinsons suffering coach roach nor heysus.
now, you too, go fukk yourself.
I hope your kids, mother and father, all get Parkinsons and die a slow death.... So people like me can make fun of them on internet sites like this....
Karma's a bitch, watch....
jesus will protect me from your witchcraft - now go fukk yourself :puke:
Anyone who thinks Roach is serious about half the shit he says in his recent interviews needs a psych check Remember what he said about DLH vs PBF?Now he says Cotto will be easy, Mayweather would be no problem, Pac wont get hit etc...Roach just needs to shut up and train Pac for the hardest fight of his career so far. If he thinks cotto will be a walk in the park, he'll be in for a surprise come Nov 14. Same goes for Cotto, but he seems the more focused of the 2.Not too much talking, no bullshit predictions, none of that nonsense. Roach is giving a upper echelon fighter extra motivation, If manny gets his shit kicked in Roach will look like a dumbass.
manny is not an english major, so roach has to do the talking for pac. don't cry because what he says offends you.

Ok, you corrected me. I'm very sorry. People....just deal with it, i just don't like him. Some of you might think i'm an idiot or an ass, don't care.
I am one of those people who think ur an idiot :biggthump
You should have just called this thread "I don't like Roach". Instead you put an article in which Roach kindly answers an interviewer on how he will prepare Pac for the Cotto fight, a good one at that. If Roach said something like "my fighter will walk through anything Cotto's got", then that's obviously foolish. You are a moron if you think saying "I will train my fighter to not get hit" is disrespectful.
how about this - if i could cure him, i would.
i'm that type of guy; but just because he has Parkinson's doesn't autonomously put him beyond being made fun of because of it.
fukk that! :fing02:

yeap me too....til i realized what he was doing. smart guy but cocaine focked him up
como se llama la tipa esa en tu avi?? la condena esta bien buena...
question for all those that are thinking roach is talking too much? they walk into his gym and start interviewing him. chances are he's going to say some shit and back his trainer up and not play the humble role cause that's all Pac. it's his time to shine as a trainer because he has the #1 P4P the #1 fighter in the world and their a dynamic duo. He should be proud and if he talks shit how the hell do people deal with any of the mayweathers? why can't Roach do some talking? as rob said. it's his own opinion so why are you shitting on him for his opinion?
And people say Pacquiao's fans are bad.

NOT GET HIT???? Has Roach lost his mind? Is he ok?
Freedy can't honestly believe that Manny will go 12 rounds without getting hit. He could only do that by literally running and you sure as hell can't win like that.
don't be surprised when in the middle of the fight an episode of Parkinson's manifests itself and he starts referring to pac as Ricardo and starts explaining how to put a car into drive from park; the bitch being that you have to put the foot on the brake to do it.
roach the driving instructor.Making fun of Roach's disease is low.
i ****ing hate Freddie Roach, he's the most obnoxious and overrated trainer out there (yes that includes Floyd) He gets too much credit for Pacquiao, he's like the Phil Jackson of boxing, i hope someone would shut his stupid fuking mouth for once.
calm down, he was interviewed, what do u want him to say. its not like he called for a press conference lol. and you want the fight to be a success right? thought so, the fight needs these. so bear w/ the interviews till nov, some will come from cotto's camp for sure down the road.
lol people ask roach question and roach answers them truthfully and these idiots get mad!!! unbelievable.
why roach is doing all the talkin????/shut the **** up train manny and let him do the talking with his fist come fight night
