Manny Pacquiao and Freddie Roach have actually developed one of the most dynamic trainer and fighter combination since Joe E. Martin Sr. and Muhamma d Ali. Freddie Roach has actually trained some of the greatest names in boxing such as Mike Tyson, Bernard Hopkins, and the former pupil he recently defeated, Oscar De La Hoya. Roach will tell you however, that his star pupil would certainly be none other than Manny Pacquiao himself. Manny Pacquiao has actually even gone as far as calling Freddie Roach, “a gift sent from heaven”. Freddie Roach on lots of occasions has actually reciprocated by saying “Manny Pacquiao resembles a son to me.”
The relationship between Roach and Manny Pacquiao has actually developed through the years into an unbreakable trust where each individual need each other in order to win. Manny Pacquiao’s success over Oscar De La Hoya was equally as important to Freddie Roach. After Manny Pacquiao defeated De La Hoya, Roach basked in the celebration with as much elation as Pacquiao. Roach’s prized student has actually just won the crucial fight of his occupation and it was Roach who orchestrated the master strategy that clearly dominated the fight. Roach would certainly later say that, “This is the biggest win in my life” and this is from a trainer who has actually trained three other great champions. Roach, who has actually Parkinson Disease prefers to be in his Wild Card Gym as much as possible but recently flew to the Philippines to celebrate Manny Pacquiao’s 30th birthday and flew back house to Los Angeles the next day.
Freddie Roach and Manny Pacquiao have actually also had their share of disagreements as naturally a father and son would certainly have actually with one another. In 2004, Roach threatened to quit the Pacquiao team after Roach refused to work with promoter Murad Muhamma d any longer. In 2006, Roach vehemently disagreed with Manny Pacquiao when Pacquiao spurned a better promotional deal with Oscar De La Hoya’s Golden Boy Production to remain in the clutches of Bob Arum’s Top Rank promotional company. Bob Arum has actually not always had the blessing of an honest promoter from the public’s point of view, but he has actually always delivered the big fights that the fans want to see. Manny Pacquiao essentially made the decision based on Arum’s ability to put together the fights that will escalate his occupation and in return Pacquiao has actually not disappointed the fans with his electrifying fights by dedicating himself first with his training.
Manny Pacquiao and Freddie Roach may disagree about financial opportunities, what food to eat, and what color boxing trunks to wear but the fighter and his trainer are always on the same page when it comes to boxing . Whatever Freddie Roach teaches and says, Manny Pacquiao listens and executes. However hard Freddie Roach requires Manny Pacquiao to train, Manny Pacquiao will always go over the top to impress his teacher. After the fight with De La Hoya, Manny Pacquiao said, “Everything Freddie told me would certainly happen, it happened.” Manny Pacquiao is currently at the top of his game and Manny Pacquiao himself would certainly say its because he puts all his trust to the trainer that is now like his father.
