    What is the deal with this? Their teamwork sure as hell didn't seem to hurt Pac during his training for Hatton? Why was Moorer fired?

    Stevie Wonder could have trained Pacquiao for Hatton.

    Hatton is DONE...

    Because Roach fears African-American fighters.

    Moorer found Roach using a George Foreman grill & flipped out on him.

    Michael Moorer probably was a little harsh on PacMan's entourage, especially the ones who feel self-important. Those guys who do not contribute anything to Pacquiao's training and should not be anywhere near the Wild Card, especially after Pac did the cymbals punch on Antillon to impress Wahlberg and Christian Bale.

    These self-important guys are highly skilled in personal politics and propagating their status within the posse.

    You could see that it wasnt going to work from the start. Moorer is his own man and said that he and roach didnt see eye to eye on everything.

    i heard that roach made a survey by asking all the fighters in the gym for feedback with Moorer. Only one made a positive feedback (if i can remember it right). guess who?
