My Take
Freddie Roach is one of those rare figures who was pretty good as a fighter but became absolutely legendary once he stepped into the other corner. His pro boxing career out of Dedham, Massachusetts had its moments, but it's behind the mitts where he truly found his calling. The Wild Card Boxing Club in Hollywood became his cathedral, and the procession of world champions he shaped there — Manny Pacquiao above all, but also Miguel Cotto and a long list of others — is just staggering. Winning the Futch-Condon Award for Trainer of the Year seven times, plus a spot in the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 2012, tells you everything. What I respect most is that he kept showing up and kept winning, all while managing Parkinson's disease with zero self-pity. That's a different kind of toughness entirely.
