    Freddie Roach looks better...

    Watching 24/7 Freddie seems a lot healthier, less noticeable tremors, speaking better ... I don't know much about Parkinson's but I know its a degenerative disease that over time progressively worsens. Could it be new meds ? He really looks that much better like night and day.

    I didn't see this. I'm sure hbo purposely chose not to show clips where he struggles more, but otherwise I didn't notice and major difference. If he is better, that is a good thing. As for the sht coming out of his mouth, wow, I couldn't believe what I was hearing. How many times is he going to predict something and get it wrong? If Freddie Roach was a psychic hotline, he'd have no stars on yelp. Fact.

              I have been noticing that. I'm between either A) HBO had been trying to hype it (they did that with Floyd's daddy's sickness as if it were terminal) or B) it legitimately was bad (and it did look really bad) and maybe he rested a bit or something.

                  Same thoughts here ... Has to be some new meds either way good for him though ... The way he was looking in the Margo or even Mosley fights I would've assumed he'd be I'm much worse shape then he is right now ... And as a matter of fact he actually looks better off... Very weird

                    Must be the new meds. Freddie Roach is good for boxing. Sometimes he might be a little bit arrogant, and loves to trash talk, but he's just promoting the fight. I saw him in person he's only 5'4" to 5'5". I am 6 feet tall. I thought he was at least 5'7".
