emanuel steward because hes the best and he handles himself well i think roach is good too but i dont like his personality
Nacho Beristain - He teaches his fighters with classic textbook style with boxing IQ, something that I want my trainer to teach me. Also trains my favorite fighter Ricardo Lopez. Others I like to mention is Emmanuel Steward, Freddie Roach, Nazim Richardson, and Joe Goosen.
You're lucky ta have Nacho as a trainer, FR. Always been curious how he puts his unmistakable stamp -- rock-solid fundamentals -- on all his fighters.
i don't remember roach being like the way he is until pac started becoming a superstar. he has a bigger head than his fighter.
Freddy's the same guy he always was, m. A tough street guy who looks like a choir boy. People are gettin' ta see more of the street guy, with the spotlight on him.
You been around the Wild Card a lot and around older trainers. How does Roach compare to the old school trainers? Is he as good as his reputation. From a distance, when I watch him do pads, his tactics for a fight, cornerwork, he does seem to be the best.
Been around Wild Card since it's two earlier addresses nearby, d. Freddy's like an iceberg: 9/10's below the surface, so keyboard warriors looking for a cheerleader are disappointed. He's ol' school. His fighters trust him implicitly -- never blows smoke at 'em, works tirelessly on strategy and communicates more with a look than all the rabid towel carriers.
I wouldn't want anything more from Freddy if I had the opportunity to work with him. It would be nice if he called me son, though.
If a fighter truly wants ta learn -- has an open mind -- he'd be hard-pressed ta do better than Freddie.
john what do you think of buddy mcgirt or manny steward as coaches? i'm sure you have come across them before.
Buddy was a damn good, complete fighter, 'n a first-rate teacher 'n tactician. Like the Brits say: There are swings and roundabouts, 'n Buddy's down, but he's too savvy not to bounce back.
