roach is overrated

he's pretty horrible tbh

[coolka]

Wait before anything else WHO in the F is Joel Diaz? The last time I heard a trainer bashing other trainer was Floyd Mayweather Sr. LMAO He's the one who trained Ricky Hatton, after round 1 Sr didn't know what to do but to splash water on Hatton's face. That fool didn't have the balls to even show up after the bout. LMFAO! Another one is Jeff Mayweather LOL this trainer is also full of himself, next thing you know his fighter got KTFO

a floyd fan you are, you're taking trash talking seriously? lol.

There is no way that Roach should have been taking Marquez likely. He did and the evidence is how Pac performed that night and the excuses after the fight when before God couldn't save Marquez. Floyd fan or not. It was a dumb move for Roach to even try to belittle Marquez. I remember reading Roach saying "Manny is taking this fight very personal because of what Marquez did in the Philippines". Then Pac gets a questionable decision. Anyway, this is about Roach being considered overrated and for him not giving Marquez his due after the fight but blaming it on Pac's distractions and cramps makes him overrated to me.

i could care less to hear anything about anything other than manny pacquiao doing Random blood and urine testing by someone other than the "Commission". Not Agreeing to take Randoms, but actually doing it!

Manny "I let other people make my decisions for me" Pacquiao and Freddie "The Dope Coach" Roach are hands down the two most overrated people in the sport of boxing right now. Roach is a very limited trainer who only teaches his fighters how to fight one way and Pacquiao is a very limited fighter who has been blown up and overhyped into something that he is not. Why do I think they are so overrated and are given so much more credit than they deserve? Roach gets a lot of attention because he is always opening his big mouth in a desperate attempt to become more popular and push his biased agendas and he also has parkinsons disease which makes people feel sorry for him and ignore the facts that none of his fighters have any versatility or defence. Manny gets a lot of credit because he has been destroying his opponents in a very crowd pleasing style. A lot of boxing fans aren't very intelligent and therefore don't care that he has been desperately avoiding serious opponents while consistently cherry picking people who had just been destroyed in addition to making them come in at a weight that they aren't comfortable at. They just think "Wow, this guy is a machine, look at how he beat up that guy and made his face a complete mess!".

While inside of the Wild Card Boxing Club in Los Angeles yesterday, the Koncrete Jungle caught up with world renowned trainer Freddie Roach. Always working with a bevy of talented pugilists, Roach has no bigger assignment on his schedule than his star fighter Manny Pacquiao’s June 9th tussle with undefeated Timothy Bradley.

and who the f u k k is Diaz?

[schizopolis23]

Funny that Diaz interpreted the Ricky Hatton comparison to getting knocked out. Roach wasn't comparing Bradley's chin with Hatton's chin. He was comparing their styles and them making similar mistakes that leave them open to counterpunches.

Diaz made himself look ****** there.

Right on Bradley!!!

To a certain extent, Bradley makes a valid point. What other fighter besides Pac has he just developed? Khan is somewhat developed, but he still lacks adequate defense, in fighting, adjusting, etc. Toney was established, Tyson, Holyfield, Hopkins, De La Hoya all were established when they hired Freddie

Roach has trained a lot of big name fighters and not many stuck with him for any period of time.

[Alx.]

they're kind of right
