Why does Freddie Roach discredit all of Pacquiao's opponents?

He doesnt discredit them, he points out thier faults, which is what every fighter does. When he get interviewed, what is he suppose to say? Pacs opponent is perfect and has no faults? Roach isn't the one lacing up the gloves and going in there and getting the victory, it's Pacquiao...Pac fans can't get mad when he's called overrated then, because his own trainer is saying he's fighting shot and overrated fighters....Pac should tell him to keep his mouth shut, but I forget who I'm talking about....Pac is use to being a puppet to everybody....if it's not Arum it's Roach or BuBoy or it's Ariza or whoever is in his head at the time pulling his strings

That's what I think also! He's like Phil Jackson of Boxing Trainers!

I have never understood it either, because some of the things he said were after the fight way after the trash talking had been done.

After the fight is done with, every fault Roach pointed out was exposed so i dont understand why its discrediting them....if the fighters beat Pac, then its discrediting

Because he's telling the whole world the truth about Pacquiao.

The dude is such an idiot and Manny should tell him to keep his mouth shut, he discredits all of Mannys opponents before he fights them Oscar - can't pull the trigger, past his prime Hatton - wasn't ever any good Cotto - shot, Margarito ruined him Floyd - has no legs So according to Freddie, nobody is worthy of fighting Pac and he's just fighting a bunch of easy fights?

Doesn't your IDOL do the same? Oh, when he says it it's because it must be true.. Some of you people in this forum are truly sad.

I made a thread about this once. I knew someone would come on and say its mind games or pre fight hype. The fact is Roach says these things after the fights as well, that's why it is discrediting.

It is called mind games. The power of suggestion.

I believe he's trying to get into the opponents head. It's worked thus far, so I'm not one to say a damn thing. Lots of great fighters talk that sh** and belittle their opponents, nothing new. It may also be because freddy is a trainer and he actually points out the flaws and has a great fighter who can exploit them. Pacquaios dominance over opponents doesn't help any either.

This is exactly what I was thinking about before. Why does Freddie do that? And on a side note, if Freddie thinks Floyds got no legs, he's in for a big surprise (even though I want Floyd to lose lol)

Can you imagine a chicken that has no legs and can't run LOL....a quick dinner
