Pure and factual ownage of the most overrated boxing trainer in history!! Roach has been spoonfed and I've always said this about him, he shouldn't have ever been considered a HOF trainer because realistically he didn't train Toney or Manny.He's not even worth responding to. He's so insignificant in this fight, he might as well be talking to himself. It's ridiculous. He constantly has to talk to remind people that he's actually involved. We forget that he's even involved until he opens up his stupid mouth. Freddie is just so insignificant in this that he has to continue to keep talking and talking to make himself relevant. It's kind of sad and goes to show you how desperate he is for attention. He's almost like a little kid," stated world-class Strength & Conditioning Coach Alex Ariza, who shared his thoughts on non-stop trash talk made by Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach heading into the May 2 showdown between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao. Check out what else he had to say!
ALEX ARIZA ON FREDDIE ROACH'S TRASH TALK:
If you only knew how many people are reporting to us what an absolute, disorganized disaster that they're having over there. Really, Freddie's just an ornament. I mean, he's not doing anything. It's like the blind leading the blind over there. Physically, he knows for years he's not been able to get these fighters in shape, so the only thing that's left for him is to run his mouth and criticize and demean and denigrate everybody else who's doing the real physical work. It's so transparent. That's what the uneducated, the insecure, and the ignorant do; they criticize what they don't understand. He should just take whatever dignity and respect he has left, because he doesn't have any from fighters or trainers in this business, and just walk away.
He should just leave this sport with whatever dignity that he has left. It's really sad that somebody who claims that he's worked his whole life to get to this position has lost respect for not only other trainers, but fighters. His constant criticism and his demeaning attitude and statements towards accomplished fighters and accomplished trainers, always trying to take away from them, his envy is so transparent, it's embarrassing. His buffoonery is embarrassing is what it is. I would expect a little bit more from somebody who is a Hall of Fame trainer and claims to be one of the best trainers in the sport. For being such a great trainer, he's done a stellar job in making Zou Shiming the next Manny Pacquiao, like he claimed. I mean, he's done an amazing job. We're all beside ourselves with the work that he's done with that guy (laughing). Listen, let's not fool ourselves. Nobody's been worried about Freddie Roach for five years. Let's talk about the real trainers out there. The Robert Garcias, the Virgil Hunters, the Abel Sanchezs, the Mike Staffords, the Barry Hunters; those are the trainers that people are talking about these days. Guys who have built and nurtured fighters their whole careers and taken them to the top. Not get hand-fed accomplished champions because their an in-house trainer for certain promoters. Nobody talks about Freddie.
I can feel the uncertainty and insecurity in their statements. I can sense it. You can smell the fear on him. He wreaks of it. He wreaks of insecurity. He knows that him and his mouth has gotten them way over his head and he physically cannot take Manny to this level, so the only thing that's left for him to do is run his mouth and denigrate and criticize the work that everybody else is doing. He wreaks of insecurity and uncertainty. It's pathetic. We don't need to respond to anything because he's so insignificant in this. Nobody's worried about him. Trust me, bro, when I tell you that there's not a trainer or a fighter in this sport right now that worries about Freddie Roach.
Sure he's helped Manny with a few things but let's just be honest with ourselves; it isn't like anyone else couldn't teach Pacquiao how to throw a right hook, the footwork I believe Manny has always had.
Robert Garcia deserves a ton of more accolades than Roach, at least he's raised a great deal of his fighters from scratch and the ones he didn't raise up you can honestly see that he has improved them by miles whereas Freddie has only helped very little in Manny's game and couldn't train Toney or Oscar in anything because both of them has forgotten more about the art than Roach has ever even known.
