Boxing trainer Freddie Roach has already established himself as THE boxing trainer of his generation. Sandwiched between Virgil Hill and Manny Pacquiao have been over 33 world champions trained by Freddie. His latest protégé, Amir Khan, was recently crowned the WBA light welterweight champion of the world. Why Freddie Roach has not been inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame in Canastota, NY, is one of the great mysteries of boxing. http://fightbeat.com/article_detail.php?AT=694
It was supposed to be, but not sure what happened. In any event, expect to see a few more articles and interview in the upcoming weeks. Cupey
Cupey, why do you keep spamming the forum with links to the homepage? Anyone would think there was more to this place than just a half-dead forum. Seriously though, I know a lot of people here say that you are just going through a brief spell of bothering about the homepage and that it will die a death again soon, but I'm glad that you are at least giving it a go for the time being. It's nice to have some sense of continuing life to this place and I'm clicking on your homepage links to encourage you. :kidcool:
it is if you base it on achievements. Everyone has their own set of criteria. Freddie has given more weight to ability, as opposed to the results that prove that ability. He's put Andre Ward there....on achievments thus far, we know that is absurd. However, say Ward proves himself in the super six, then he could find himself pretty high up....not because he is a notably different fighter to what he is now, but just because he's got the results to back it up.
amir khan should not be in any p4p list. someone who runs from kotelnik and who recently got absolutely iced by a non-world class boxer cannot be top 10 p4p. top 10 p4p in a few years, maybe; now, no way.
