Why does Manny employ Alex Ariza?

[boliodogs]

Pacquiao may not be following Ariza's routine to the letter but he is doing some of it so he must feel it's worth something. As far as expecting a better Pacquiao, I think his sparring, road work, mitt work, bag punching, and shadow boxing are more important than Ariza's routine. Old time greats like Joe Louis, Ali, Robinson and Duran did ok without a strength coach.

For steroids.........

Not to claim Ariza necessarily falls into this category, but Pac seems like an extremely loyal guy who can't refuse anyone who attaches themself to his entourage. Like Ali, he allows himself to be leeched on and assumes responsibility for supporting a great number of random, useless people.

Which is why he'll probably still be trying to make fights in 5 years time.

Because he makes a great PED shake

Its scary how much emphasis is put on a strength coach, the guy behaves like he is a boxing trainer

Virgil Hunter said he just finds it a baffling concept of so much focus being put on strength coaches. Ariza seems like a ****in douche, a very dodgy douche, hope he aint blackmailing Pac, i'm sure if he goes down he will take Pac with him

Ariza caters to Manny's every need. Treats him with respect and dignity.
