Roach has said it is embarrasing and hopes to get some gold medals for the US in next years Olympics.


If anyone can turn round American fortunes it is Freddie but will it be at British fighters expense?

Great news for the Americans.

Not sure how much difference Roach will make tbh. He doesn't have long to work with the fighters and still has his pro commitments. If he stays in the role he could make a huge difference for the games in 2016.

This title makes Roach sound like a kiddie fiddler.

Freddie Roach the next generation.

Why was 'pædophile' filtered out?!?

Was it really? Nazi's man.

I didn't say anything libelous. Bit harsh.

Think I might have though and got away with it. See you can beat the system.

He will do well with the amatuers. Teaching defence has never been his strong point and with the head gear they wear his fighters will do well.

Not sure how much he has left, personally I think he will retire with Manny.

I'm not sure he will have a big impact on the 2012 team though because he still has his pros to train and Manny trains in the Phillipines. Think if he stays in the position he could have a big impact on the team for the 2016 olympics.
