    Roach "Strength trainers are bulls**t"



    Some really good stuff from Freddie in this interivew. First off he says Pacquiao has knocked down sparring partners 4 times in camp so far. He also says that he is not doing any of Ariza's strength & conditioning program and that Ariza just stretches him. He then goes off and says that all strength trainers are bullcrap and that boxing would not have a drug problem if they all left the sport.

      Hummmmm....

      Khan physique 2008 -
      Khan physique 2010 - Ariza
      KHan physique 2012 - Tabares

      Looked much better after Ariza's work... So It's not bull****.

      Imagine if Khan didn't have Ariza after he joined Roach? lmao.

      Maidana KO 10... That's what.

        What does a S & C really offer a fighter? What can they offer that YouTube videos can't? Besides roids... Legit question.

          Freddie is on a roll right now when it comes to talking complete garbage.

          A qualified S&C coach is bringing a LOT to the table. You're talking the ability to take any fighter and make him faster, stronger and more explosive. Hugely beneficial things to a fighter.

          That would be the same as a S&C coach saying Freddie and boxing coaches are all bull****....

            they make sure you do them properly and keep you doing them cause believe me no one like doing polymetrics and you need someone to help you stabilize you to get the right form. Shit harder then a mother****er. But I guess once you condition to it and know how to do it you can fire your S&C and role solo.

              Roach is just being controversial... I don't think he believes half the stuff he says anymore

                  I wouldn't say useless, but I would say they are less than a dime a dozen.

                  It is always good to have someone keeping you on task and pushing you so you work harder because it is easy to slack doing boring repetitive stuff that is not very much fun.

                  But you see it all the time guys hire strength and conditioning coaches and nutritionists then they end up looking even worse, so unless a guy is willing to really listen and take the advice to heart they are a third wheel.

                    LOL, funny but it's true, it's all because roach is conjuring some sort of media blitz to hype up the fight. it's all for good business. once the dust settles, freddie should be back to his old timid self
