When Andrei "The Pitbull" Arlovski takes on Ben Rothwell at Affliction's inaugural show Banned on July 19th, there will be a new face in his corner. Though the former UFC Heavyweight Champion continues to work with Mike Garcia in Chicago, this new face is one that won't look very new at all to longtime boxing fans, even if the setting will be different. After all, he's a man that has had a hand in training Oscar De La Hoya, Virgil Hill, Mike Tyson, and Manny Pacquiao, amongst other.

We're talking about Freddie Roach.

The interesting thing is that Arlovski was always a good boxer that just needed a little bit of smoothing out, according to Roach.

"He does have great boxing skills and he has good hand speed and he has great foot speed."
