Roach Says Kotelnik Faked Toothache in Khan Withdrawal

[Dave Rado]

Amir Khan's trainer, Freddie Roach, has unleashed on WBA junior welterweight champ Andreas Kotelnik, accusing him of faking a tooth infection that caused the fight with Khan to get postponed to July 18 at the MEN Arena in Manchester. Promoter Frank Warren hopes the withdrawal will work to their advantage by getting Khan's fight on HBO. [details]

Roach is being an idiot. Shame.

[Dave Rado]

wait... but isn't the fight still happening?

Yes it's only been postponed for 3 weeks and the injury is genuine. Maybe Roach thinks that his trash taking will get inside Kotelnik's head, but trash talking just doesn't suit him. He should leave it to Floyd Snr.

Im actually starting to not like Freddie anymore he used to be a pretty humble dude no he is just being a prick

the funny thing about all this is that people say 24/7 turned the Mayweathers into what they are but they have always been this way

if anything 24/7 has turned Freddie into a much different person than what he once was

shame really because with the spotlight off he was one of the cooler dudes in the sport

Agreed. Roach should stay humble. I just think he is a little bit angry that the fight is postponed. Because Roach knows its very important for Khan to be at his peak on fight night. Because of the postponement it will be harder to figure out when Khan will be at his peak because he will have been training for 13 weeks then instead of 10.

Freddie Roach is obviously pissed off like anyone would be. Pullouts due to injuries mess up a lot of things. This is a championship fight and "champions" have enough money to take care of their dental needs. Kotelnik must not be paid very well....

[portuge puncher]

for 100,000 dollers id rip that thing off,

boxers are becoming crybabies

No one is immune to dave rado's high standards. even hall of fame trainers cannot escape his high & mighty conceited quote replies.

Why cant roach talk trash? He's been doing it since he got pacquiao. He's been doing it as manny's trainer since the MAB & Marquez days. People just assume that since roach is a nice guy he dont talk trash.

They get all shocked & offended!!!! Like WoW!!!! He talked trash!!! Screw him!

He is taking care of his dental needs. He incurred a tooth injury in training and is flying over to Ukraine for surgery on it. Money has absolutely nothing to do with it, any more than it had anything to do the Ali-Foreman fight being postponed for 3 weeks when Foreman got injured.

Do you have some links please? First time I've seen him genuinely trash talking was in the lead-up to the Hatton fight.

And I'm every bit as entitled to my opinions as you are.

You know what dave, you are one of the most concieted posters i have ever come across with.

That's the last time im gonna reply to your comments because i heard from multiple users that dave rado likes to report other users & get them banned.

He likes to give out criticism but when people call him out on it, & cant handle it, he reports it.

What a -----. I wanted to use much harsher language but the pope of boxingscene might report me.

So lets just call him Dave tattle tell Rado.


Thats my opinion.
