    The Freddie Roach/Mike Tyson job conversation transcript

    I posted this in another thread, but it deserves it own, honestly.

    The conversation went like this........

    Iron Mike : Freddie, I hate to do this, but I'm in financial ruin.....Can you please give me a job at your gym, possibly as a trainer?

    Freddie : Gee....Sorry Mike, I think we're booked. I just hired that lazy **** Michael Moorer as a trainer, you know, the one who needed Teddy Atlas to basically verbally **** him infront of the world before he'd get off his ass to capture the Heavyweight title?

    Iron Mike : Oh.....I see. Well, listen.....Please don't tell anybody about this, okay? I don't want people to know even more about my personal life than they already do, y'know?

    Freddie : Absolutely. You know you're my friend Mike, and I respect you. I would never do something like that to you.......

    Iron Mike : Thanks for trying, Freddie....

    **Phone hangs up**

    **Numbers are heard being dialed**

    Freddie : Yeah, this is Freddie Roach. Mike Tyson is completely bankrupt and hard up for money, he just reached out to me for a job and I shot the poor bastard right down. Let's go public with this, it'll draw more attention to me and Manny.....

      I love that trailer.

      I feel the complete opposite about Freddie.

        Why the hell couldn't Roach give him a job anyway? Isn't he a millionaire?
        He could have just had him around for the Pacquiao camp even.

        But like you're saying, if you can't give him a job, don't tell everyone and make a fool out of the man.

        I dunno, strange...

          Freddie Roach is kind of an arsehole.

          You look at him and see the kid from Jerry Maguire and think he ain't bad is he. He is: Somewhat of a ****.

          Also the fact if Khan gets sparked tommorow he'll drop him like a hot potato covered in Cat AIDS.

              lol, hey sparked you still confident in Barrera tomorrow? Remember we had a few convos about the fight like 5-6 weeks ago. I still think Khan will do the job.

                  I've change my mind completely, just looking at the black and white, which might be wrong.

                  But, I think Khan might smash him up, and look great. As long as he keeps it long and keep his hands up protecting his temples. Khan TKO.
