A little over two weeks out from their mega-fight with Oscar De La Hoya trainer Freddie Roach talks strategy in between working the mitts with Manny Pacquiao during a training session at the Wild Card Boxing Club in Hollywood, Ca on Nov. 21, 2008. Pacquiao not only found a trainer but a career defining partnership + friend & brother with Roach. The Filipino champion considers the Hall of Fame trainer to be family + the Wild Card his second home. Pacquiao would come face to face in the ring and dethrone one of his boxing idols "The Golden Boy" in the fight that was billed as "The Dream Match" on Dec 6, 2008 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, United States. Pacquiao retired De La Hoya on his stool when his corner threw in the towel before the start of the 9th round. Photo by JP YIM.
