Hall of Famer Coach Roach Predicts a KO Win for Manny
Freddie Roach, the four-time trainer of the year and current coach of seven-division boxing world champion Manny Pacquiao predicts a KO win for his ward when Manny will defend his world welterweight title against Ghana’s Joshua Clottey in March 13 live on HBO Pay-Per-View at Jerry Jones’ Dallas Cowboys Stadium.
“Clottey is very basic, he does the same things, but he is very good at what he does, but Manny is going to knock him out. He has a great chin, a big right hand, but Manny knows how to nullify his strengths,” Roach told The Telegraph’s Gareth Davies.
Clottey is a former International Boxing Federation (IBF) welterweight champion and a very sturdy welterweight who has a size advantage and power to upset the Filipino Superstar.
Meanwhile, Coach Freddie also talked about the current status and progress in Pacquiao’s training camp.
“He has sparred twice, he looks really good, he knocked out one sparring partner and we have four other sparring partners in here at the moment.”
Manny Pacquiao’s diet and conditioning Guru Alex Ariza added that PacMan is “very sharp and looks like he’ll be ready to fight next week.”
