Comments Thread For: Roach Not Thrilled About Possibly Training Ricky Hatton

[Osirus022]

Roach doesn't want to train ANYBODY other than the ones he is training @ the moment because those are the ones who know the secret, he will not allow any outsiders to spoil something for him. He knows his skills as a trainer arent enough to make someone @ their best.

well im not happy about pacroid being called pound for pound king when hes fighten half-dead zombies ,while mosley are proving themselves better time and time again by facing guys like berto and margarito ,something pac nor mayweather would do in a million years but hey life aint fair, stfu roach sick of ur mouth.

Ur an idoit! Plan and simple, you can't type or articulate yourself well. Did you even finish high school? Seriously?!?

>>while mosley are proving themselves better time and time again by facing guys like berto and margarito<<

Its Mosley IS fighting not ARE. I can't begin to comprehend how Mosley is proving themselves, but I'll give you the benefit of ignorant doubt.
Did you forget that Sugar Shane was busted in the BALCO scandel. So while he does face the best in the world, and perform well against, whose to say how much had to do with PEDs(he still barely beat DLH and was schooled by Forrest and Wright).

How is fighting Margacheato or the limited Berto proving yourself?? I'm sure Berto won't be viewed as limited until he loses and then a victory over him won't mean a thing. I mean Hatton and DLH were the favorites until they lost, and then it's because we all knew they were shot and consequently hand picked opponents. Please!

BTW boxingfan76, didn't Shane lose to Cotto, who, by your definition is considered a half-dead zombie (despite the fact that zombies are all dead)? Was Mosley a half dead zombie against Forrest and Wright?

Even though Roach said Hatton was a great fighter he's just being nice. He never thought Ricky was good. Ricky should just retired.

[rommel357]

I don't see any reason why Roach wouldn't want to train Ricky other than conflicting time and schedule.

[brently1979]

What's the point, Hatton won't listen to his instructions come fight night. Just like he did against Pac. I think Floyd Snr did good things with him, but he just didn't execute them. He's better of hiring a wrestling coach, because that's all he's going to do: HIT and HOLD.

**** Arum, Roach

I know that this is off the subject but i still can't believe that top rank isn't being investigated for the corrupt BS that they're doing. One of your fighters was illegally wrapping his hands, the other allegedly used PED and yet no one's investigating this camp. I mean by no means do i like Mayweather but i don't blame him for wanting an outside agency to conduct stricter drug test from what i read there was a person from the nevada athletic commission in the dressing room when they were wrapping margacheato's hands and he still did'nt pin point it it, it was Nazeem Richardson who pointed it out so to me they're credibility is shot. Then you sign a fight between Pac and another one of your fighters Clottey and what i'm reading for him there's no catchwieght are you serious.WOW!!!! If I'm Cotto i say FU Arum!!! and in my eyes if it's true then Pac is worse than Margacheato making fighters drain thenselves and then juicing to enhance your strength PATHETIC!!! Your political future's why you walked away from possibly the highest grossing fight ever because if they found your ass to be dirty which i believe you are there goes your political career. I believe Moorer knows the truth!!!

hattons trainer/nutritionist

hatton had a good trainer in billy graham, and a good nutritionist in kerry kays.

what went wrong ricky? let me make an educated guess unless youve forgotten.

you never followed instrutions during the mayweather fight, which was the begining of the fall, dont blame graham for that.
i think hatton and his dad (team hatton) joke! thought we dont need to be paying graham his 10%, couple more fights and were well made!!!

kerry kayes, a world class nutritionist, was part of the phenoix (team hatton) camp, and in my opinion ricky burnt his bridges through pure greed together with bad advise.

im not surprized to read billy graham is suing ricky for whatever.

if your promotional enterprise is working , stick to that ricky and thanks for the memories.

imma better trainer than him

[Laborer]

Hatton like Jermaine Taylor needs to retire and stay retired. Only possible thing Roach could have done for him years ago is put him on the Ariza juice that he's feeding Manny today. Overrated fighter and overrated trainer.

another hater. what if pac just don't want a super fight to happen in March, he's been qouted as sayin march is too early for a PBF fight. haven;t you heard, he's got this lofty dream of becomnig a legislator and the May (corrupt) election would be a bit too much of a distraction for him if he's on a super fight. Pac is not too ****** to walk away from a 40M if he's physically on top for against a defensive fighter. Clottey has a lot better defensvie skills than Cotto, why do you think Pac wants him? naturally he wants a 'tune up' for the kind of fight PBF will bring on the table. After Pac loses again in the election, he'll be hungry and angry as hell and will take on any blood test PBF dishes at him just so the fight happens later in year. that would be the night PBF will never forget. L1.

[Weebler I]

I second that...and I can't wait to see Cotto do it.

Is he going to do it at 140? because Hatton isn't fighting at 147.

Even though Roach said Hatton was a great fighter he's just being nice. He never thought Ricky was good. Ricky should just retired.

How do you know what he thinks? Roach has said it before about Hatton. If you're going to go on about the 24/7 thing don't bother, Roach was cut off mid-sentence.
