Breaking News: FightBeat'S Miguel Salazar has just learned that this weekend on the way back from the Casamyaor-Katsidis fight, trainer Freddie Roach was in a terrible accident that nearly cost him his life.

While driving down US 60 a women driver lost control of her car and struck Freddie Roach's brand new 2008 Lincoln SUV sending it into a tailspin where he was struck by another car traveling down the highway. The woman's car also spun out of control and slammed into a semi-trailer truck to cause more havoc.

The woman driver was traveling with a baby in the car that wasn't strapped into a child seat. The child was later discovered clear across the road as he was thrown out of the car on impact. The child is in critical condition. The woman lost an eye and was rushed to the hospital. Freddie Roach suffered a broken tooth as well as back and neck injuries. Roach is reportedly OK.

Sad story to hear. Why didn't the mom have the child in the safety belt?

I feel really bad for the child and hope he pulls through same for the mother and Freddie Roach

Damn, I hope that Freddie and everyone involved get's well soon.

Especially the baby.

I get soooooooo pissed when I hear about, or see parents that don't have their kids strapped in properly. I can't tell you how many times I have yelled at parents, while I was driving, or at a stop light, to strap their kids in!!!
