Roach wants some more

[jamiebhoy]

Hype and putting pressure on the ref, that is all it is.

I agree with you on this. I think it's just one of those things where Freddie just wants to stir things up a bit and to make the ref more mindful of low blows.

welcome aboard, and well done for getting the thread back onto the subject. I also think it's primarily mind games but Roach is starting to get too pissy for his own good. One day a ref will completely ignore anything he says to just show who is really in charge.

Well , i have to say that this fight will going be Tremendous , Cotto in a journal commented to Roach to " Worry to his roll as a trainer and not to what will going happen in the fight , because Nobody , Nobody will going Change what will going happen in the night of the fight , if he think that he will play mind with me , no way " ............that was what Cotto commented ....hmmmm this comment to me means KO .....

I hate to agree with Roach but I think I do on this one. If you watch the Judah fight Cotto did hit him low at LEAST 5 times. Granted this is a fight and thing's get a little heated in the moment. I don't think an automatic disqualification is right but you can be sure people are now listening and watching Roach's little rant and on the fight night the ref will be looking a little more for the low blows then usual. I think a smart move by Roach but a bit embarrassing if he actually meant an immediate disqualification.

I actually thought Judah was winning until he started all that and ever since Zab has been crap.

I don't think Roach really believes he can influence this though, I just think he's trying to get inside Cotto's head, it won't work!!
