    Could Freddy Roach Be Slipping?

    His two star fighters end up in life or death matches against opponents they were expected to cruise right through.

    I could imagine its difficult to train a couple of star fighters, but imagine when one is P4P 1 or 2 and the other arguably the best at 140 and possibly at p4p top 10.

    Perhaps two fighters of Pacman and Khan's status with dates too close to each other has taken its toll on Roach's ability to gameplan and strategize?

    Or just bad style matchups . . .

    I wouldn't read too much into it he's just had a bad few results, Linares was totaly bossing the fight till the cut, Pacman will always have problems against JMM and Khan struggles with pressure fighters and fighting on the inside.

      I don't know why Roach keeps turning Khan into a Pacquiao clone. The guy has no chin and no legs. As soon as he gets hit, his legs start to wobble. A goddamn PETERSON, who is not known as a big puncher, gave him these problems on Saturday. Now imagine some top guys from the welterweight div in there with him. Massacre!
