Pacquiao denies cutting ties with mentor Roach
Print Edition
Filipino star Manny Pacquiao said yesterday he had not yet chosen a trainer for his July world title fight with Lucas Matthysse, dismissing reports he has cut ties with long-standing mentor Freddie Roach.
The veteran US ring guru Roach said last week that his 15-year association with Pacquiao, who has won world titles in an unprecedented eight weight divisions, had been terminated ahead of the Matthysse bout in Malaysia. 鈥淚 would be lying if I didn鈥檛 say I wasn鈥檛 hurt that he didn鈥檛 contact me personally about his decision, but the great times we enjoyed together far outweigh that,鈥 Roach said in a brief statement last Friday. But Pacquiao went on social media yesterday to say that he would make a decision later this week on his corner team for the Kuala Lumpur fight with the Argentine World Boxing Association welterweight champion. 鈥淐ontrary to statements which I personally did not make that are circulating in the media, I have not made my final decision who will be my head trainer for my July 14 fight with Matthysse,鈥 he said.
