    It;s funny because he has so many tools to be a great fighter but he really has no power whatsoever lol

    tools? like what?
    Freddie Roach didnt have any defense, nor any offense. he is a better trainer than he was a fighter..I mean when the guy had like 40+ fights, he still hadnt had a title fight yet..
    now his brother, he was alot better..

            You've missed one crappy fighter LOL. Micky Ward was twice as good as roach and Ward was nothing but a few notches above a club fighter. Roach is definitely a better trainer.

              Eddie Futch said that he had all the tools to be a good world champion,the problem was he couldnt crack an egg with a haymaker.

                Thank you for the video, the first time I've seen it> Yes, Roach had some very nice moves, good head and foot movement, but, seems to have no punch. That looping right hand left him wide open only his opponent couldn't take advantage of it.

                he really looked so young, and at 24 to have had over 40 fights seems as if he was taking on a bit of a tough life, especially since he's lost 6 already.

                  No power? You need to watch part three of that video.

                    Good more people should research him. He was on his path to be one of the greatest but unfortunate what happened to him. But he was destined to be great anyway and did it as a trainer. Best trainer of all time period. I love his TV series.
