    Moorer has gotten a lot of negative reviews over the years as being a guy who seems to bring negative energy to training camps and seems to put fighters down. Do you believe he will be a distraction since he has joined the Pacman Camp?

    Nope, Freddie Roach knows what he is doing, if Freddie thinks Moorer was a distraction he would straight up tell him, that's just the kind of trainer Roach is.

    hmm says.... nope..... he's Roach's third eye.. He's something new to the table and have similar thinking with Roach.

    Think roach would have to him by now. He told told Tyson he didn't need his help straight up so i don't see why he wouldn't do it to moorer

    Pac and Roach have a good enuf relationship not to bring in problematic ****. If Moorer was takin anything away from Pac's preparation, I'm sure they'd boot him. And he ain't runnin **** anyway, he's just there to help a lil bit.

    24/7 always does this, to give the fight more dimensions. In truth, I don't think it's a factor at all.

    They have had a working formula up this point, so I don't see the reason for having an extra man saying pretty much the same things Roach would be telling him anyway.

    It's a good question.

    For years Freddie and Manny have had great success together, which begs the question, if it ain't broke, why fix it?

    Now you add a third wheel to fiddle with perfection and you don't know what can happen.

    I think Freddie took pity on the hard-luck Moorer and wanted to give him a job.

    And Moorer might feel compelled to add his two cents just to make it look like he's earning his pay.

    Can anyone argue that Moorer is essential to Pacquiao's success over Hatton?

    What are the distractions you are talking about to begin with? Has Moorer been a negative factor in this camp yet?

    On 24/7 it looked to me like Roach was actually trying to cover up his disdain for Moorer by constantly calling him his assistant, like he needed to 1 up him. Yet on 24/7 you see Moorer doing a lot of coaching. Personally, I see Moorer as a distraction to Roach.

    You can tell all that from the 5 mins of Michael Moorer's appearance?
