    Its good to see him working the corners and its good that Roach is involving ex fighters at his gym.

    Being a great fighter doesnt mean they will be a great trainer, very rarely the case that it works.

    Plus Tyson isnt the most stable of people.

    Indeed.

    IT's like when people say Ali would've been the worlds best trainer. Guys like Ali and Tyson and RJJ would never be great trainers because their gifted ability gave them such tremendous advantages over their opponents.

    They wouldnt be able to help their fighters if things got tough during the fight.

    Always useful to get another perspective, ultimately Roach can decide if Pac should take that perspective on board or not.

    I think its about time Roach teaches someone else to hold the pads and the body belt, i dont think its healthy for Roach to be doing it in his condition, look at Nacho Beristein and daniel zaragoza

    That's Rob Peters' job there. Moorer's actual role at this point, to me, seemed poorly defined and rather nosy...

    I think Roach has mentioned in the past that it helps his condition, he needs plenty of physical exercise otherwise he'll just go to waste.
