    The way it was always explained to me is that Koncz is basically Bob Arum's guy inside Pacquiao's inner circle and as far as I'm aware Moorer just didn't work personality-wise with Roach (which makes sense consisering Moorer always comes across a bit awkward and standoffish in interviews).

    That has to be the polite way of saying Moorer's a scary scary guy, with a very short fuse.

    He very well might be but I meant more that I just feel like he looks like he doesn't want to be there when he's talking on tv like he would just rather be anywhere else.

    Pacquiaos boxing ability has improved dramatically...if you cant see that then you really dont know what youre watching. As for maybe its down to Ariza, maybe, but Pac was an ATG and p4p top 3 BEFORE Ariza. He also had everything, speed, explosiveness, power, stamina before Ariza. If anything Ariza helped him with the jump from LW to WW but Pac's body of work is 122-130.

    I don't remember enough fighters complaining about Roach and leaving him. If people are referring to Amir Khan, he complains about anything he could find when he loses. His first loss he replaced a newly hired trainer and totally blamed him, now Roach and soon his new trainer once he loses again.

    Moorer is a nut! He loves guns too, would not be surprised to hear of him doing something crazy someday.
