Roach: Chavez Will Kick Sergio Martinez's Ass Right Now!

Trainer Freddie Roach doesn't think much of WBC Diamond champion Sergio Martinez (48-2-2, 27KOs). The four-time trainer of the year is not impressed with Martinez as a boxer and believes Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. (44-0-1, 31KOs), the middleweight champion, would beat Martinez right now. Roach feels Chavez improved a lot as a fighter and liked what he saw on Saturday night when Julio stopped Peter Manfredo Jr. in five rounds. Roach hopes Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum will sign the Martinez fight right now and doesn't see a reason for holding it off.

"Let's do it now. I'm ready right now. He can kick his ass right, in my opinion. I don't think he's a great fighter. He's a great athlete, I'll give him that. But he's not a great fighter...anyone who gets knocked out by Antonio Margarito. I don't see the greatness. I cant take away his athleticism. He's a great athlete, yes, but he's not a great boxer," Roach said.

Get a load of this gem from The Roach as far as fighting Alverez:

Roach says he doesn't want any catchweight for the fight.

"Chavez is the middleweight champion," Roach said. "If [Alvarez] wants to the title, come up and get it."

I'm going to gag on the hypocrisy.

hypocrisy? Pac holds the chips so he has the right to make fighters come down. Chavez jr holds the chip as the best middleweight. come up Alverez and get whooped like a red head step child

I want them to make the fight. I really think it would be a great fight. Chavez is not a boring fighter. Sergio is a real exciting fighter. Lets make this happen.

I would watch the fight and think it would be a good one (wouldn't have said that a year a go). Chavez is a little bit like Pavlik: a little bit better movement, looks a little bit stronger physically, not as good a puncher, not as hard a puncher, and we don't know about his toughness/chin. That fight was awesome.

As far as Freddy, when has he not said he has the best fighters in the world? I want him to focus on making Linares (his best fighter according to him) into a champion.

LOL! Freddy back at it again. How soon he forgets the "Pacquiao will KO JMM in less than four rounds" dude talks to damn much. Martinez beats chavez soundly and probably will KO his ass. I am not even going to get into the "come up and get it" comment.

i cant stand roach! he talks so much and its not even funny like roger mayweather. he is just arrogant and annoying.

Yeah. He's an attention whore more than he is a trainer.

Freddie's being way too ignorant with Martinez, by his logic Manny isn't great because of his knockout loses earlier in his career.

I like him because he is confident in his fighters and is not the type to beat around the bush. Roger isn't funny I cant understand what that meth addict says.

He's a blathering hypocrite. Mr Catchweights saying he doesn't want a catchweight. Shitting on Martinez's early loss, yet Pac had early losses. So did his boy Khan who got knocked the fuck out in under a minute.

He is the best trainer there is today and there is a lot of truth to what he says even if he is being a hypocrite.

What truth?

I don't think he's a great fighter. He's a great athlete, I'll give him that. But he's not a great fighter

While I dont completely agree there is some truth behind that.

See, The Roach is even too dense to phrase it right. If he said "Martinez is not a great fundamental boxer but a great athlete and fighter" then I'd agree with it.

The hell he isn't a great fighter. He's the fucking Middleweight Champion of the world.

Isn't that the report on Paquiao as well? Great athlete with decent fundamentals.

Yup, why The Roach is as much of hypocrit as Atlas.

And he just keeps going:

Roach want Alvarez to face Chavez at the full middleweight limit of 160-pounds. He doesn't agree with catch-weights - even though his star fighter Manny Pacquiao has used catch-weights in several of his recent fights.

"I say fuck Alvarez. If he wants to fight for the middleweight title - the weight is 160. I don't like catch-weight fights, even though I've been involved in them before with my fighters, but I'm a purist at heart and I love boxing and I don't think they should have them. That's my opinion," Roach said.

I think it is roach. He doesn't want to lose more than Pac or Arum.

LOL yeah I know. I was just pointing out he wasnt lying about Sergio. BTW I really want to see Sergio vs JCC Jr. That will be a really fun fight. I think Sergio wins and JCC takes a beating but it will be a fun fight. Jr has a chin.

He does have a good chin but he keeps fighting guys without power. Zbik-no power. Manfredo-little power. He did withstand Duddy's shots. Martinez is different though. he can hit you with shots you don't see coming and from a southpaw stance.
