Freddie Roach to retire if Pacquiao beats Mayweather?

The Manny Pacquiao-Floyd Mayweather showdown could be the last fight for Freddie Roach.

 

The Hall of Fame trainer, who helped turn Pacquiao from a virtual unknown to a global sporting superstar, told GMA News' Connie Sison that he could retire if his top pupil deals Mayweather his first ever defeat.

 

"I can retire after this fight and be happy as long as he wins," said Roach.

 

 

While Pacquiao has been loose and confident during the buildup to the much-awaited mega-fight on May 2, Roach admits he's feeling the brunt of the pressure.

 

"I'm pressured, yes, because I know how important this fight is, but I don't show (Pacquiao) that," said Roach.

 

"I'm so anxious to win this fight." —JST, GMA News
