Last friday saw the first episode of "On Freddie Roach" premier on HBO. The second instalment airs tonight, and if you don't know Freddie Roach then step out from under that rock and listen up. He is one of the universe's top boxing coaches!
A scientist of the 'sweet science,' Roach has produced world class boxer after world class boxer. His stable past and present includes Manny Pacquiao, Amir Khan, Oscar de la Hoya and Mike Tyson.
The World Boxing Hall Of Famer has gotten the Peter Berg treatment in the six part series, "On Freddie Roach" which delves into the life of the extraordinary man, his theories and his practices.
If you missed the first episode then not to worry because you can catch it on HBO GO. If you reside outside the United States, like us, then it's a no go unfortunately, so HBO sort it out! Or perhaps someone will rip it and put it onto youtube (OMG did we say that out loud).
