    EXCLUSIVE: FREDDIE ROACH TO TRAIN RICKY HATTON!

    STUNNING ANNOUNCEMENT FORTHCOMING

    Los Angeles, CA- When it is announced in the coming weeks, you’ll be as surprised as I was upon learning that Freddie Roach, everybody’s 2008 trainer of the year, will train former world 140 lb. champ Ricky Hatton. That’s right! The man that trained Manny Pacquiao, who destroyed Hatton in two rounds a month ago for the world 140 lb. championship, he will now train the lad from Manchester, UK.

    DON’T CRY FOR FLOYD MAYWEATHER

    The elder Floyd Mayweather, the man who trained Hatton for Pacquiao, he appears to be out in the cold. Over the years Floyd Sr. has been his own worst enemy. Big mouth, acting a fool, still I respected him as a trainer. But much to my dismay, Floyd again failed to bring a fighter to another level. Didn’t do with Oscar, this before failing miserably with Hatton. Can you tell me of a fighter that Floyd’s guidance lifted to another level?

    Didn't he say he thought Hatton was not worth training at this late stage in his career?

        I don't see the point in Roach training Hatton now.

            he'll be getting paid $500K-$1M fight.

            for that kind of money he'd train jimmy wilde's corpse. lol

              Having only lost to the P4P#1's in the sport, I don't see the harm in fighting on for a couple more fights or so. As you say, he can't hang with the best of the best, but that don't mean he can't beat a fair few fighters out there still - especially if he gets Roach on his side.

                Agreed. People are quick to dismiss fighters when they lose, just cause he lost to 2 of the best p4p fighters doesn't mean he isn't still good or can't put on an exciting fight.

                    There were rumors of this before the Pacquiao fight. Not really stunning to me.
