He's had a bad year, it happens. Pacquiao didn't really lose to Bradley in my eyes. |

AristidesBrito - Better question, when was the last time he took someone from.his first amateur fight to a title HA! That's a great question that could be asked of a lot of big time trainers. Unfortunately, connections are more important than knowledge. |

Roach is legit of course, he was a good fighter and a pupil of the Eddic Futch. I think he's legit, but I have never considered him to be the best trainer in the world. |

different coaches for different people, for instance, i think khan should have gone with manny stewart. roach was a horible choice for him. he does not seem to do well with tall lanky guys. stewart has the oppisite problem |

pharochuck - "...amateur and pro are so different now that its two different styles of coaching." And THAT is one of the main things hurting the sport |

martinburke - pharochuck - "...amateur and pro are so different now that its two different styles of coaching."Agree completely some of the shot that went down in the Olympics proved that. A knockdown is scored the same as a jab :-s
