Ricky Hatton's trainer Floyd Mayweather Sr. is not known for holding back his views or opinions. In a recent article by Abac Cordero of Philstar, Mayweather Sr. is quoted in regards to his feelings about Roach as a trainer. Roach is training Pacquiao for the May 2nd showdown against Hatton, and Mayweather Sr. feels Pacquiao would do better with a different trainer.

Mayweather Sr. stated: “People talk all this and that about Freddie Roach, but Pacquiao could be a better fighter if he had a different trainer.”

Mayweather Sr. went on to diss Roach for not being able to train well either James Toney or Mike Tyson. Mayweather Sr. stated: “What has Freddie Roach done? You can’t say he trained James Toney and you damn sure can’t say he trained Mike Tyson. And I look at Pacquiao and he could be a lot better fighter than what he is right now if he didn’t have him.”
