i know there will be sum dickheads to respond. im a fam of freddie and think its remarkable.. i mean he still lets hits fighters actually hit his face when teaching! but his top 4 fighters. (not so sure the rank in his stable) but the ones we know about from TV. pac, khan, kayode and that guy that got his ass whipped on the floyd card i believe! all the **** he teaches i believe is from the success of pacs natural will that makes it so hyped. they dont have skills, and i dont believe he's teaching anything great. i think he's the trainer to the stars and he gets the hype of that and his gym. pac. fought to a decision an widely seen that skill wise he was outclassed. khan when it got close it was all peterson, kayode is a big failure after u get pass his power, no skills. and the other kidd very talented naturally but had not great ring skills. i left out JR. personally hav not seen much from him to decide. see what canelo does to him. LET the hate begin.
what u mean he lets them hit him in the face? his eye would be like petersons if that was true. he lets them tap him in the face lightly holding back is what u meant to say.
Hey TS theres no need to FCUK your mother's son? Wouldn't tht be yourself? So your doing yourself LMAO. Jokes apart I bet you can't wait 4 the ON FREDDIE ROACH 6 PART SERIES. LINARES, MANNY, AMIR hasn't been a good year for any of them. I really think Freddie's PD is getting worse :/
have u ever seen him sparr wit them. they actually hits him sometimes.. youtube it.. not hard. but not soft either.
I just don't see the logic behind the whole, Parkinson's must be coming on strong/Roach's Parkinson's is affecting his boxers/Is it time for Roach to retire for the sake of his boxers... Roach's camp certainly hasn't had the best of years, but this is mainly due to his boxers not listening and following instructions. He is the most consistent coach over the last how many years, and all of a sudden his boxers aren't living up to the standard, so it's the Parkinson's. Parkinson's may in fact be taking a greater hold over him, unfortunately...but from what I've seen of his training, his padwork, he hasn't slowed one bit. He still knows the sport, he still knows the tactics, the gameplans...he's still giving his boxers the correct tactics, and when they do follow them, they are successful.
He does a pretty good job for a ******. Amir Khan would be a better fighter if he was trained by Teddy Atlas period. Khan certainly wouldnt of lost a gay ass fight to Lamon Peterson.
Hey man dnt say tht :/ @Anthony so what was Freddie's gameplan? Dnt stay on the ropes... stay in the centre of the ring? I do agree with you tht Khan needs to follow Roach's gameplan to the T. Amir has no other option he doesn't seem to have a boxing brain himself. As for Manny, well I think he reverted back to what he used to do in the 1st 2 fights with JMM.
Although I replied to your post, it wasn't really your post that had me thinking this. I do agree that his Parkinson's is showing signs of getting worse, I just don't see it in his training or coaching. Roach wanted Khan to box behind the jab, set up his shots from the jab...that was clear to see. Can't really remember too much of what he said in between rounds because I was quite drunk...but I do remember him telling Khan to throw the uppercut as a counter to Peterson's changing gameplan. He threw the uppercut, it landed, even hurt/stunned Peterson on occasion. But then he neglected it. Khan lost that bout himself, nothing to do with Roach IMO (unless you're expecting miracles, and for him to rapidly change Khan). Pacquiao did revert back to his usual self, but again, I don't see how a great deal of the blame can go on Roach. Marquez and his team got the gameplan spot on, made it very difficult for Pacquiao to get any rhythm. Pacquiao didn't really look like he wanted to be there in parts of the bout.
I like how everytime there his a hot topic in boxing (like Roach right now), there's a guy who post a thread (instead of commenting on a previous one) thinking he just had a revelation, some provocating stuff that will tear the world appart.
