    "We were enjoying a beautiful day until we heard what Freddie 'The Joke Coach' Roach had to say. He had the nerve and the audacity to say some **** like that? Freddie, you have the problem, not me. Why are you not training all of your fighters anymore? Why do other people have to hold the mitts and speak for you," Mayweather Sr. commented. Although he didn't specify exaclty what he meant by "problem", Mayweather Sr. was likely referring to Roach's ongoing battle with Parkinson's Disease.

    "How can you be a trainer when you can't even hold the mitts. You ain't talking about ****. Nobody knows what you're saying anyway. You have others talking for you and holding the mitts for you. That's why I call you a roach. You're talking about me, but I sure as hell know Manny don't know what in the hell you're talking about. Manny don't know if you're talking about boxing or talking about taking a walk in the store. Freddie don't want Floyd Mayweather Sr. in the corner because he knows I'm the master. He don't want the master in the corner," he continued.

    When asked what he thought about Roach's comments regarding Justin Bieber showing up at the press conference to support his son, Mayweather Sr. added, "Stars hang out with stars. Freddie Roach is not a star. No celebrity wants to hang out with Freddie? Why? Because he's a roach. Who wants to hang out with the roach. He's a roach blowing smoke with no hope."

    Mayweather Sr. went on to remind Roach about the encounters he had with his brother, Roger Mayweather, inside the ring before issuing a stern wraning. "All you did as a fighter was take numerous, heavy, hard blows to the head, and Roger [Mayweather] was part of it. Roger used to beat the **** out of you daily in the 80's at the Golden Gloves gym in Las Vegas. You might hide in the back of the arena when Roger hears what you had to say because you don't want no more punches upside your damn head. You're still scared of Roger Mayweather to this very day from all those 1980's ass whoopin's. When we get done whooping your ass, then you don't have to worry about anymore accolades. It's gonna be hasta la vista, baby! If you keep talking ****, I'm gonna start a world war. I might make Roger come down there and whoop your ass some more."

    He's exactly right. Roach was a punching bag back in his day. Sorry, but facts are facts. The only thing Freddie Roach was really known for in boxing was being able to take a sound beating. (For those of you who aren't old enough to have seen him fight)

    Let's just say this: If a boxer is going to Freddie hoping to learn about defense in boxing, they are in the wrong place. And I say that with all due respect to Roach as a trainer. Defense just isn't in his bag of tricks.

    you do realize joke coach roach started talking smack about the mayweathers, right.

    so roach can talk nonsense downgrading others in their profession but once someone addresses roach's smack talk they are the bad ones ?

    double standards ?

    Roach can talk about Sr, but Sr can't talk about Roach. Pac fans, you have T-minus 42 days and counting!

    Roach has that disease because the guy blocked punches with his face. In regard to "boxing," that is something to criticize. You also have to remember these guys competed in the same era, they remember Roach as a fighter not just a trainer.

    i.e - You're being trained by a guy who was known to be a human punching bag. That's why Roach doesn't talk right today. So Roach really shouldn't talk about anybody stuttering, because Freddie's speech impediment is a direct result of his lack of skill in the boxing ring.


    Just because Roach has Parkinson's Disease, doesn't mean he is above ridicule or that you can't talk about it. Yea, Mayweather Sr. may not be the brightest guy, but his stutter isn't the result of the ass kickings he took. That'd be Freddie Roach.

    I swear to god most pac fans are freaking re****ed. I dont like ppl making fun at that person disease with the way he talks but since roach started making fun at floyd sr words since floyd sr has a problem of his own, it's ok for roach doing it but not ok for floyd to answer right back? SMH

    You're dumb. Mayweather Senior talks **** about Roach (and Pac) anytime he is asked about the subject matter of Mayweather-Pacquiao. He's done this for five years non-stop.
