Comments Thread For: Robert Garcia on Breaking Away From Alex Ariza

[Evol]

ariza is a tool, but what im wondering is can someone show me an instance where ariza is talking in the corner giving instructions? i know this is one of the reasons being thrown out there as to why ariza cant keep a job but i have yet to see this happen? i've seen ariza giving out instructions but it has nothing to do with the fight or the fight strategy. ariza usually tell the fighters to take a deep breath, etc. thats part of s/c so how is that talking over the trainer?

Everyone knows Manny was on the juice. He was knocking people out and beefing up with crazy acne all over his face. He agreed to random blood testing but only if he had advanced knowledge of when the surprise testing was going to happen.......um yeah that totally doesn't sound su****ious.

This man with numerous tattoo's claimed to be afraid of needles!! I look back on how he koed Hatton and I feel he should be charged with a crime. Mayweather wasn't fighting Manny while he was doping, or on the juice. And later Freddie said he had su****ions about these shakes Ariza gave Manny, so Mayweather's concerns weren't off base. Who in the world turns own 75 million if they're clean? I will tell you who: Someone who knows a positive test will not only take away your current earning potential, but open you up to lawsuits from all the guys you knocked out to get to stardom. That's why Manny will never come clean, he would be arrested for attempted murder.He may have given his life to the Lord, but he'll never confess that his greatest accomplishments came by the way of steroids.

Wonder if Rios failing his drug test influenced his decision.

That was a slick little comment about Fernando Vargas.

it has to be about the money. i bet ariza was running up the tab with all the supplements and testing fees. gotta be about the money.

Come on Robert, have a bit of respect for us and for yourself. You either tell us what the matter is, or tell us you won't comment. What's this nonsense about fighters "just" deciding they don't need Ariza? Ariza's the best in the world at what he does, but suddenly all the fighters decide one by one that they prefer "old school" and Robert has no choice but to agree? Can't imagine any of the other high profile trainers saying rubbish like that.

Lol. Nah, he's just being diplomatic. What happened was probably enough to end a business relationship, but not end a personal relationship. So he's keeping it civilised while this friend (ariza) is living a few blocks away from him. I hear you though, i really wanna know what happened too, but im sure its related to Ariza being a douche, the same way most stories end.

Everyone is kicking Ariza to the curb.

and yet no one questions its because hes giving fighters illegals supplements i bet garcia and roach both found out they were giving fighters ped without there knowledge

its pretty obvious they leave ariza because something sketchy is going on its the only thing that really makes sense. Remember the interview where roach is explaining why he fired ariza and in the same interview starts talking about how if you get rid all strength coaches you will get rid all the ped's its plan as day whats going on here. They are probably figuring out ariza is giving fighters something without them even knowing about it. For example would you be surprised if it turned out ariza was giving many ped all those years without manny even knowing about it? i sure as hell would not be surprised

Ariza is probably charging a lot for his services and fighters would rather save their money.

Yeah i thought there was an issue with Ariza trying to takeover like with Freddie Roach but it seems this is simply an issue of money.
