NEW YORK – Teddy Atlas and Freddie Roach didn’t even acknowledge each other Thursday during the brief time the training adversaries awkwardly shared a small interview room inside Madison Square Garden.
Moments earlier, Roach made it clear that he doesn’t think adding Atlas as his trainer will make much a difference for Timothy Bradley (33-1-1, 13 KOs, 1 NC) when Bradley boxes Manny Pacquiao (57-6-2, 38 KOs) for the third time April 9 at MGM Grand in Las Vegas (HBO Pay-Per-View). Roach doesn’t consider Bradley’s first fight with Atlas in his corner, a ninth-round technical knockout of Brandon Rios, an accurate indication of Atlas’ work with Bradley because Rios (33-3-1, 24 KOs) wasn’t properly prepared for their Nov. 7 fight in Las Vegas.
