And I thought the Ring.TV population had already redeemed itself (from voting in Pacquiao as the Fighter of the Year last year) when it chose Pacquiao-Marquez as Robbery of the Year last week.
Roach over Virgil Hunter or even Robert Garcia?
:wtf1:
I really doubt that. Give me one single valid reason why US Boxing fans would vote for Roach?
Most posters on this site, US especially, want either Virgil Hunter or Robert Garcia to win so your point is kinda moot.
But still explain why you thought that.
He already explained it... Roach is the only one that casual fans actually know because he's been in the spot light.
Roach over ... anyone? The guy had a terrible year. Pacquiao won in a highly controversial decision. Linares was winning and in the end lost via KO against DeMarco. Chavez Jr won against Manfredo (which doesn't says much), Khan lost via decision against Peterson (controversial but not that much, in fact lots of people had Peterson winning) and Omar Chavez also lost a few days ago.
I actually had khan winning the fight despite the two point deductions...and i'm not even a fan of khan.
but yeah imo roach shouldn't be trainer of the year. it probably should go to robert garcia...
Linares Loss + Pacquiao Loss + Khan Loss = Roach Trainer of The Year?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA
If they don't give it to Robert, the fix was in. Only 1 high profile loss this year, shouldn't even be a question or an argument.
This is why Pactards are bad for boxing in someways, because they can't vote objectively. But they're good in otherways, don't get me wrong.
It's more likely to be casual US boxing fans than Pactards, Roach is the only coach most people know.

yeah i don't agree with that at all
can someone tell me who is erik morales trainer is i know he's dad works the corner but does he train him aswell
not saying he should be considered but i thought morales was done and he has had two impressive showings especially against maidana where he lost a close majority decision
just interested to know who was able to bring that out of el terrible
that being said not sure how much credit his team deserve morales experience alone would be probably be enough to carry him through most fights what an incredible fighter he is
sorry just had to get that of my chest lol
Sad sad sad that he was even included.
Anne Wolf accomplished more with Kirklands revival than Roach did with his fighters. Also I don't blame Linares... he was boxing pretty good IMO until the KO
I think Ring.TV is also to be blamed for putting Roach in the poll in the first place. Even if two of his guys won, he has such a huge stable that that ratio looks like sh!t right now.
Anne Wolfe, Brian Viloria's trainer, even Miguel Cotto's new trainer, I think they've made a lot moar impact this year than Roach did.
At this rate, I'd really hope hard Ring.TV doesn't include Manny in its Fighter of the Year poll because he'd win just on Pactard votes alone
Linares Loss + Pacquiao Loss + Khan Loss = Roach Trainer of The Year?
