    his rep is built on manny, anny has natural talent and would be great under any trainer, he just stands there shaking in the corner, does not give good advice to fighters and himself was very average in boxing.

    he is overated...Manny two losses on the spin, Khan two losses on the spin.

    He should retire.

    Lots of trainers have their rep built around one or two fighters

    His rep isnt based on Manny.

    Roach has proven to be an excellent trainer.

    While I agree that roach is overrated as a trainer, he's definately not useless.

    No, he's a good trainer. Manny went off the gameplan.

    He can fight for his fighters.

    he's a good trainer, not a great one. he cannot train defense obviously. he was certainly very overrated. had one of the worst years a top level trainer has ever had making BUddy Mcgirt look like a winner. He needs to retire, he lost a lot of what he had.

    Freddie is an excellent trainer. I worry that the effects of his Parkinson's is starting to impede his work though.

    Still think he is top 5 atleast out of the trainers today
    along with beristain, garcia, richardson, ahh, the next one would have been Steward, now im not quite sure who to replace him with
