Manny changed my life - Roach

[Mayabang]

ive heard stories how pacquiao, when he came over to the states for the first time to look for a coach, every coach looked at him and turned him down. they dont want no asian boxer.

they must be kicking themselves in the foot after they learned that they could have been in Roach's shoes.

I always wondered who those trainers are that turned down Pac

Yeah I've heard that too (from Pacquiao, I think), but much of that has to do with Freddie...they just mesh well together. Before Freddie, Pac didn't have any real tutelage to learn from...having an experienced trainer can go a long way.

Good Post

It was all Alex Ariza, without him Manny is nothing

Of course Pacquiao was nothing before 2008 when Ariza joined the team. Surely, nothing.

Pacquiao is the product of Roach's offensive mastermind. Roach was always an aggressive fighter with aggression in his mindset. He just needed a student that could execute his aggressive strategies. In came Pacquiao. An aggressive fighter from the moment he wore boxing gloves. It was a match made in heaven.

Just look at pac improvement after Ariza got to the team. Before Ariza he was beatable, after him joining, there is no way of beating him. He totally dominates his oponents.
