Roach must be elated, he had a great 2013 and is now officially 2 - 0 over Robert Garcia. Not sure who has a better chance of Trainer of the year this year (Floyd and Roger don't count..they train literally what seems like one fighter and no I am not taking anything away from them over it they are both excellent but need more product to be judged for.)

I suggest ya'll relisten to what Roach said in here about Floyd and Showtime...interesting and kinda revealing. I've always believed personally that Schaeffer was/is responsible for a Floyd vs Manny fight never happening, never believed Arum wouldn't sell out Pacquiao for a huge payday, never believe Floyd was scared, never believed Manny was scared. Schaeffer wanted what Arum had as the biggest promoter in boxing at the time, and he got it but the proof in the pudding that TR has put it's boxers up againgst Dibella and Duva fighters but for the life of me can't think of the last time GBP negotiated their fighters to fight another promoters fighters in the last few years.

Rios was flabby. Ariza is a scam artist

Good words from roach but hes not so squeeky clean as certin media would have u belie

Freddie talking sensibly this time. Can't believe he used the "f*cling Mexican" comment in the gym the other day but we've all done it and idt it makes u a bad guy or racist. But u gotta wonder how **** like that comes out so easily. It's actually worse than what Rios's team did by mocking him. Anyway all the best to everyone but Freddie gets a lot of good guy image from having his ailment but he has to be held accountable for his actions to.

If Roach bags the TOY award everybody who's ever made fun of Pacquiao and Rios in 2012 will eat serious amounts of swine feed.
