Comments Thread For: Freddie Roach Takes Offense To Joel Diaz's Verbal Jabs

I do believe that Freddie's parkinson had caught up with him. It is evident in the last 3 fights of Manny. He was the best trainer a few years ago but I think it's time for him to call it quits and concentrate with his ilness.

The more he'll regress.

Yeah, I give old Freddie a hard time but I do think he needs to stay in boxing for his own good. I don't think he is as effective on the pads as he once was but he is a good strategist and if he were to retire from boxing, he would slip fast.

Freddie responding well, and why not? Diaz didn't say anything that bad about him.

I only see one Bradley fan on this forum,where's the other two???

Of course he took offense. The guy trashed him good and said Roach did not care anymore. Maybe his illness has hurt him as a trainer but I think Roach cares very much about his fighters and does his very best for them. The fighter Roach has going against Bradley tonight said Roach is devoted to helping him win. He probably won't win because he is a rookie Jr. welterweight going against a top 10 pfp. guy in Bradley who looked like a full sized welterweight at the weigh-in at 146.6 pounds of rock hard muscle.

He did, go check his record. Better yet just look at my sig

If you think Bradley beat Pacman, you're just another one of those delusional tards we unfortunately have to accommodate here on these boxing blogs.

Any of these armchair quarterbacks saying Roach is done are indeed fools. It's well documented the guy has a tough work ethic, and has had many successes with many fighters in his stable. And he lives boxing. And all this while battling a crippling illness that would have sidelined a lesser man. How much more devotion do you expect? Anyone who would diss Roach isn't a true boxing fan.

When you are the best at what you do it common to see other envious and less talented people take shots at you. Lets not forget all the great things Freddy has done for the sport. His passion still shines through and any clear thinking person knows that. Just go to his gym and watch him.... He's 1000% 24/7.
To say Freddy Roach has lost his passion is just laughable. Diaz is not on Freddy's level and Bradley is a LUCKY B class fighter and they both know it....both of their careers in World Class boxing will be short lived so he should shut his yap and enjoy his glory while he can.
