    Has anybody seen footage of Freddie Roach fighting?

    If so, what kind of style did he have?

    He's clearly a gifted tactician, I've often wondered if that came at an easy or a hard price.


    Any of you guys seen him, or heard of his style? I think I once heard that he was a fairly basic, honest fighter.

    Any knowledge you can share?

    He had a 39 and 13 record wasn't all of that. On the 24/7 series they showed some clips of him

      He was a blue collar fighter, a tough guy, not very skilled defensively, got hit too much but he had heart and could fight.
