Mayweather Sr.: I could have done a lot better job with Amir Khan than Freddie Roach
By Chris Williams: Trainer Floyd Mayweather Sr. is extremely disappointed with the lack of progress that former IBF/WBA light welterweight champion Amir Khan has made while under the guidance of trainer Freddie Roach in Los Angeles, California. Mayweather Sr. doesn’t see any improvement in Khan’s game whatsoever since Roach started training him and says that he’s seen women that fight better than Khan fights now.

Khan can’t fight on the inside, Roach needs to go
By Chris Williams: After two solid years of working with Amir Khan, trainer Freddie Roach’s results have been less than impressive. Khan is for all practical purposes the same fighter he when he first hired Roach to resurrect his career shortly after losing by a 1st round knockout to Breidis Prescott.

Roach to Mayweather: Manny will be bigger than you in the ring
By John F. McKenna (McJack): It is well known that World Boxing Council (WBC) welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. (42-0, 26 KO’s) is a master when it comes to trash talking. He has used his trash talking for years as a way to enhance his image as one of the premier bad boys in boxing. Recently in one of Floyd’s ongoing and seemingly unending tirades against his number one rival WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao (54-3-2, 38 KO’s) he referred to Manny as the “little man” and said that “he can come get it on May 5th”.
Pacquiao, Arum and Roach are are in a lose-lose situation
By Babatis Banda: Manny Pacquiao and team have squeezed themselves in a difficult corner. It is not difficult to see that the next move for his promoter Bob Arum is going to be a tricky one. If Arum decides to go for a fourth rematch with Juan Manuel Marquez, it is going to be difficult for Pacquiao to redeem himself this time around because psychologically he is not the same.
Roach still crying about the t-shirt Marquez wore in the Philippines
By Dave Lahr: Freddie Roach is still yakking about the t-shirt Juan Manuel Marquez chose to wore when he visited the Philippines not too long ago. The t-shirt, which said Marquez beat Pacquiao twice, seems to have really angered both Pacquiao and Roach because neither of them seems to want to acknowledge the reality that many boxing fans felt that Marquez was the better man in the previous two fights against Pacquiao.
Freddie Roach vs. Ignacio Beristain: Who do you pick?
By Gerardo Granados: There have been many great boxing trainers such as Ray Arcel, Emmanuel Steward, Lou Duva, Cus D´Amato and Eddie Futch, just to mention a few of the most recognized. But who would you pick to be your trainer between Ignacio Beristain and Freddie Roach? I believe it would not be a hard choice to make but it would depend on your boxing taste.
