can't believe i'm starting a Pacquiao based thread but..

[XaduBoxer]

Not only that... Roach wants Cortez to ref the PAC-Hatton fight...

Hatton hates Cortez...

[Big Dick Whittington]

Freddie Roach should train and keep his mouth shut ! All he does is heap the pressure on the fighter, I'm sick of Trainers bigging their man up whilst being disrespectful to their opponents especially a fighter of Hatton's calibre !
Sick of Pavlik's trainer Jack whatshistits, everytime he opens his mouth he goes way overboard
Half these trainers think they make the fighter the fighter they are and thats's bullshit.
1st Emmanuel Steward then it was Buddy Mcgirt and Billy Graham and now it's Freddie Roach
Just sick of this classless backbiting all this shit about legendary trainers who are there at the end yet do nothing to mould the fighter coming through .
Angelo Dundee another one with a high profile for doing what ? Fuck all a well connected big mouth just like all the rest ,


Victory had a 1000 fathers but defeat is an orphan .

Correct me if I'm wrong but the aforementioned big mouth trainers may have trained one or two World Champions between them .......or did they just talk about it.

So what ? These trainers are vocal when they're on top and doing well but dont get quite so vocal when things go wrong .
I'm in danger of spilling a few home truths but I will say most of these trainers deemed ' legendary ' are more unscrupulous than the big bad promoters .
They are media savvy in the main but it's all about the $.

[:::PSL:::]

Freddie is playing mind games.

[XaduBoxer]

Freddie is playing mind games.

I totally agree... and Hatton is falling into Freddie's trap...

When Freddie said PAC will stop Hatton in 3 rounds, Hatton retaliated that PAC will be gone in 30 seconds...

Didn't realise you had the inside gen on these guys, do feel free to spill away whatever it is you think you know. Just in case it's escaped your attention all sport needs the media so media savvy you have to be, it's all about the $............a revelation at last , you can count on one hand the number of people who get to the top of their field and don't hype themselves so trainers are no different. Again the aforementioned trainers have paid their dues and are as entitled to play the game as anyone else.

So do many, he is not on the ball anymore. Once a decent ref but he has declined in rapid fashion in his ability to ref a fight correctly.

Team Hatton can protest if Ref Joe Cortez will be selected...

Or play their own mind games and approve Cortez as the ref (like saying the referee will not matter)...

I think he's on H. Sotos ankles in that department .Cortez needs some re evaluation

[TheDemolitionDan]

I hope Pacquiao tries and knock out Hatton in three rounds. Pacquiao will have a hell of a time doing that and if he tries to do that Hatton will knock him out in 3 rounds. Freddie Roach is a joke.

[Preme]

what freddie says and what he thinks are worlds apart.... so much of being a trainer these days is more than getting tham in pjysical shape but mental shape. By saying he should beat him in 3 rounds is somethign that "should" push pac to his best...

Still think hatton will wipe the floor with him.

He was a good ref, now he thinks he is part of the show too.
