Boxing Trainers..

Didnt Roach guide Virgil Hill to his first title?

Also when did he hook up with Toney, what point in his career?

 

the thing is...

amateurs and pros are almost 2 completly different sports now days, a am trainer usually only knows the amateur style and vice versa, thats why guys like steward dont train them anymore, roach and roger mayweather help amateurs on their technique but they cant set gameplans etc because its a different ball game.

 

naz is still heavly involved with the ams

 

yeah he is, there are only a handful of pro trainers still involved in the ams.

 

Stating the truth by no means is any form of hate, its the truth.

You trained with Roach? That must've been pretty cool though, man. How was that, and what happened?

 

very imformative

 

Ignacio “Nacho” Beristain was an orphan that began to box at age 7 so he could protect the few possessions he did have. He was not a very successful boxer and ended up being hired by the Mexican government to train boxers. He lives in EL Paso and travels to Mexico City to train some of his fighters for world title fights. His first fighter to become Champion was Daniel Zaragosa.

 

Manny Steward with Tommy Hearns is the among the most well known

Freddie Roach Now 4-Time Trainer of The Year

He is certainly no joke, as what one boxing trainer suggested.

Winning his fourth BWAA Trainer of The Year Award, Hall of Famer Freddie Roach have certainly etched his name alongside his mentor, the great Eddie Futch, as one of the most revered teachers of this brutal sport of boxing. Manny Pacquiao may be his prized ward, but his methodology of the Sweet Science has produced a long list of champions and elite contenders. And at his current state, he will certainly be producing more.

Roach’s run in 2009 kicked off with Britain’s Amir Khan winning decisively against aging legend Marco Antonio Barrera. These were followed by huge wins Pacquiao and rising star Guillermo Rigondeaux.
2009 also made history for Roach as his star pupil Pacquiao went on to win seven titles in seven different weight classes, a feat no other boxer has achieved. Pacquiao is also named BWAA’s Fighter of The Year (2009) and Fighter of the Decade. Such achievements will tell you what kind of trainer the former pugilist from Dedham, Massachusetts, is.

But Roach’s approach to the boxing is not only limited to the sport. Notable MMA fighters such as Tito Ortiz, Anderson Silva and BJ Penn have trained under Roach’s tutelage.
His job is no joke, considering he trains his fighters while battling his own bouts with Parkinson’s disease.

Roach is the epitome of a guy whose will is unbreakable and whose soul unconquerable. Never did he ceased his existence and watched on the sidelines as tremors in his body make is difficult for him to function. Instead, he wills himself against it.

“My doctors tell me that someday it would affect me where I can no longer function as well as I do,” Roach said. “Until that day happens, I am going to work my ass off.”

Congratulations to Coach Freddie Roach, 4-time Trainer of the Year, All-Time Great!
