Trainer Freddie Roach wants to squash the rumors, and misreporting concerning his relationship with Manny Pacquiao. Recently, Hall of Fame promoter Bob Arum went on the record and called Roach an "idiot," and there were reports that Manny Pacquiao had fired Freddie Roach after learning that Roach and De La Hoya would be working together, "Bob Arum needs to spend less time trying to get me fired, and more time helping Manny, and getting Manny to the Wild Card. Bob needs to be working with me, and not against me. Manny Pacquiao is my boy and I am going to take care of him." Roach said he spoke with Manny last night, and reports that Pacquiao gave him his blessing, and wished him luck with Oscar. Freddie also suggested the possibility that Pacquiao could go to Puerto Rico to train with Oscar to prepare for his possible fight against In Jin Chi. Roach also informs Fightnews that they will be training at Wilfredo Gomez's gym in Puerto Rico. Full interview coming soon.

Thanks for posting man! CC 147, this is nice and Pac and ODLH training in the same facility that's good. Maybe one can learn from the other a few things or something like that.
Re: Roach squashes Pacquiao rumors!
Thanks for the article! Boxing needs less rumors and "he said/she said" bullshit, so its always great when someone in the know comes out and squashes these stupid rumors.
