    I told people this would happen months ago. I made a thread on Roach being the Walmart of boxing. Roach is a hollywood trainer in every sense of word. The only reason he even has a gym is because it was given to him by Micky Rourke who he was training for a movie at the time.

    You cant have 30 Boxers and 20 MMA guys in your stable if you cant provide 1 on 1 training and support, its just not feasable with so many guys. This is what happens when you get greedy. Instead of having a few world class fighters and some amateur hopefull's he tried to have 20 all stars in boxing and 10 in mma.

    There's a reason Steward and Bernstein only train a few fighters at a time, Nacho trains kids but his superstar fighters he has one or two at a time.... There's a reason why....

    JCC should jump ship quick before he loses his fake 0

      perfect point.

      I couldn't have said it better myself. and it shows, all his top fighters fight the same.

        It's the punch you don't see that gets you.
        zab judah has a glass jaw..not Khan.

        Khan never saw that left hook.
        khan was hurt against maidana. he was out on his feet as soon as maidana started connecting. khans chin is bad.

          exactly. there are plenty of examples. like monzon, or tommy hearns, ali. these are the fighters he should have been emulating based off his tools. pac is such a fundamentally flawed fighter that if u cant do what he does, ur assed out fighting like him. i remember talking to a golden gloves coach a few years ago in the gym. and one of the things he said to a group of us is the fighter he would advise no1 to ever fight like is manny pacquiao. and thats what roach has done, he created a number of pacquiao clones.

            I personally would never train with a trainer who has another 10 or so fighters in his gym, Roach is a greedy bastard and overrated as hell.

              Bottom line is A Mere Con doesn't have the talent to be great. No trainer is going to able to make chicken salad out of overhyped chicken****.

                  Roach is definitely a bad fit for both Linares and Khan. Linares fights better going backwards and has a fragile face. Khan has speed and some power but has a glass chin. Who's idea was it for Khan to train under Roach anyway?

                    I think he does have the talent just not the proper mindset and no trainer could ever fix that. He could have got taught to utilize his talent better by a different trainer but how would that trainer make Khan have the will to constantly strive to get better.
