Rigondeaux to Roc Nation

[Chrismart]

Roach mentioned Roc Nation in this interview. It's an interview from before the Pacquiao Vs Mayweather fight though..so it's a few months old now :

Boxing Insider: There were reports that stated that you had brought in Guillermo Rigondeaux as a sparring partner for Manny Pacquiao, but were later reported to be untrue. Did you ever consider asking Rigondeaux to be a sparring partner for Manny?

Freddie Roach: That's a lie. Rigondeaux is a good friend of mine, but we're not fighting a southpaw, we're not fighting a counter puncher. . . Rigondeaux is a challenging kid, I trained him for several fights, he's met Manny before. He did want to box with Manny when he came over getting ready for a different type of opponent, but that is completely untrue. I have no idea where that came from. Rigondeaux is a good friend of mine, I told him I would love to train him again last time I saw him and when Roc Nation signed him. Rigondeaux is a great guy, he's just not the right style for this fight.

I'm going to be the next President and use the Playboy mansion as my White House. Sorry, just too lazy to post link.

Oh Ok, so yeah that was probably around the time when Gary Hyde was trying to work out a deal with Roc Nation so I guess the TS wasn't lying but I figured it was OLD
