"Lee Beard is an exceptional trainer in his own right. He's a great student of the game. He's a great tactician of the game and on the 24/7 Floyd has been in his element. And rightly so. That's what he is. Floyd's very, very good. Sometimes it's good to have two trainers, because obviously, one is still on the outside of the ropes. You can see things a lot more clearly than when you're actually working in the heat of the action, you know, in there." "So I've got the best of both worlds and to be honest I've been doing pads with Floyd Mayweather and combination punching and setting my opponent up for, you know, with combinations, to set him up for the big shots. And then also every day I've been doing south paw pads with Lee Beard. You won't be seeing that one 24/7 because obviously we don't want to show anything, that we are working on, style wise and tactic wise. But Lee's an exceptional trainer and to be honest anybody working with Floyd Mayweather is going to be kept in the background. You know, if you can't see him you can hear him." "You know, but I've got two world-class coaches and you know, anybody who with seem like itself, to name just is who is Lee Beard in action when all that's even just an important part of the team as anyone. I think Lee is a world-class coach in his own right. You know, Floyd is arguably the best coach in the world. I think Lee is the world-class coach already and certainly in the making. You know, he's only young. And we've been working on tactics moves and all honesty Manny's certain shots and weaknesses in certain areas and we have been working on certain moves and combinations, you know, from the south paw stand that nobody has seen on 24/7. We didn't want to show everything. We don't want to tip our hats too much, but, yeah, Lee has been a very important part to the camp." Ricky Hatton, April 2009
Sure, we might not see what there working on, but I haven't seen Ricky with this much confidence or bravado-not even against Mayweather.
we get it. he's been working with 2 world class trainers to fight a world class southpaw. he should do everything he can to win this fight and he's obviously dedicated. i just dont think he's got the discipline/skill/style to take out the pacman.
Funny, as if Roach does not know what they would be working on anyway. Floyd Sr. has got Hatton delusional but that's confidence to Ricky. Wait till he gets hit, he'll forget whatever Floyd has shown him. That's not Floyd's fault, just the way Hatton will be. He does not have the natural ability to properly implement what he is being taught.
