Freddie Roach fired his assistant trainer Michael Moorer because of personality conflicts between Moorer and Manny Pacquiao, and also between Moorer and Amir Khan. Moorer was a former  world heavyweight champion

According to Brad Cooney of 8CountNews.com, Moorer was asked to leave his position at the Wild Card Gym “due to a conflict of personalities that had been creating issues amongst the wild card stable.”

According to Roach Amir approached him to be his trainer, and Manny Pacquiao also did the same thing. Inspite of what happened Roach said there were no hard feelings when he fired Moorer. He even thanked Moorer for his involvement in the Wild Card which was located in Hollywood, California. Roach also trained Moorer during his time.

Moorer retired from professional boxing with a record of 52 wins (with 40 knockouts), four losses and one draw.
