Roach slams Hatton’s trainer


Manny Pacquiao’s trainer Freddie Roach says his opposite number in the Hatton camp couldn’t programme a video-recorder, never mind a fighter.

Roach’s attack on Floyd Mayweather Sr comes less than a fortnight before Pacquiao and Hatton enter the ring in the year’s biggest fight in Las Vegas.

Mayweather Sr trained Hatton for his last fight against Paulie Malignaggi but Roach has rubbished his chances of changing Hatton’s technique ahead of the Pacquiao showdown.

"I know Floyd is trying to deprogram Ricky from being a one-dimensional puncher,” he said. “But it's too late to try and brainwash a fighter who has close to 50 fights during a 12-year professional career.

"The fact is Floyd couldn't program a VCR much less a fighter with so many bad habits ingrained into him."

Roach is preparing with Pacquiao in his Hollywood gym and says Hatton doesn’t stand a chance.

"'Hitman' is an accurate ring name for Hatton because on May 2, Hatton is going to get hit, man, and a lot! I told Manny I would be disappointed if the fight lasts longer than three rounds."
