Comments Thread For: Freddie Roach Reacts To Parting Ways With Manny Pacquiao

[mvooom]

I believe there is more to this than just "he said I lost the Horn fight".

Roach always said he will tell Manny to retire if he thinks he is past it. Well, he told Manny he lost a couple of times, maybe he was also telling Manny to retire cuz he is truly past it. Manny who admitted he came back for the money can't stomach unmotivated talks so he kicks him out.

If he loses to Matthysse even with that bad eye, he should really consider walking away from the sport.

Forget Loma, Manny should just fight Khan, Garcia and Broner then retire with some real money.

I'm not very surprised by that. You might not remember, but a few years back, Roach was asked is he was in contact with Cotto. Roach said that Cotto was staying in shape between fights, and Cotto calls him to talk all the time. Roach went out of his way to say Cotto called him on Christmas. He was then asked about Pac, and he was pretty short about it, but he said Pac doesn't really talk to him much, he tried to defend it by saying Pac was busy with politics. Then there was the fact that for his last few fights, Pac started training with Buboy in the Philippines, before he would train with Roach, and maybe you'll remember, Pac told Roach he wanted to use Buboy's fight plan for the Mayweather fight, so I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case for Pac's more recent fights. Arum and Konks have been tying to convince Pac to leave Roach for years, ever since Roach made that comment about Pac's money. Writing was on the wall, I'm not surprised Pac didn't call Roach, I'm more surprised it took this long for them to split.

Buboy fight plan to beat Floyd hahahaha

Good points. You never know at this point of their careers tbh.

I think Matty has more ICE in his arsenal right now though.

Oh, that Manilla Ice? Should be a fun fight either way haha.

Roach has been leaching off Manny for years and he still wants to cash in that last big payday.

Manny is a legend that has spent half his fortune on roach and arum.

He should be a billionaire by now.

I'm sure boxer and trainer will patch things up.

I think Pacquiao will tear Matthysse up. Still too much speed, period.

When you get sued for defamation and you end up paying to settle the lawsuit, it makes you an absolute fool! Don’t you think so?

What does this have to do with Manny using PEDs since the early 2000s? We all know it. Pacroid.........the biggest cheater in sports this side of Lance Armstrong. The ultimate fraud. Loses to the likes of Rustico Torrecampo and Medgoen Singsurat overseas, comes to America, and becomes the biggest world beater of all time.

That's not suspect at all......is it?

F!UCK YOU PACQUIAO D!CK RIDERS.

Tbh in all this stuff im sure there were things going on with pac, roach and arum. Its common sense that roach is kind of in arums pocket

Naw I honestly think Roach really was on Mannys side and really cares for the guy

This obviously hurt Freddie as he said it himself. Mark my words Freddie is going to crash ans Parkinson’s is going to get the best of him now. Training Manny was his medicine. The relationship they had was what had Freddy in better health.
Fawk Manny roid pac! Fawk that loser!

It’s obvious he does man. Only fools will think otherwise

After I posted my comment and read yours, that is pretty messed up. The man was getting ready for work on Monday morning and didn't even know he was fired.

Pretty rough that he didnt even give him the time of day to atleast let him know before reading about it thru the media.
I think he should have picked up the phone or atleast send him a text.
