Roach turns down Hatton...

Roach imo cares about his fighters, although he may not care about his fighter's potential opponents. Anyway it's a trainers no. 1 priority to look out for his fighter's health and career not the potential opponent. If the other guy like Hatton or Morales wants to step into the ring and fight Khan, then you can't blame Roach for taking that opportunity for his fighter.

I don't, but I also don't think he should be made into some kind of hero for saying this. I believe that while he cares about his fighters, he also doesn't want to be associated with failure.
