ARLINGTON, Texas — The trainer for Antonio Margarito has apologized for an Internet video in which his fighter appears to mock the Parkinson's disease of Freddie Roach, who trains pound-for-pound king Manny Pacquiao.
The video appeared only days before Pacquiao and Margarito fight Saturday night.
In a video interview posted by Elie Seckbach of FanHouse, Margarito and Brandon Rios — both of whom are trained by Robert Garcia — appear to make fun of Roach. Margarito makes a twisted face and raises a shaking hand for the camera before it pans to Rios, who also makes faces and stutters while saying Pacquiao's name.

Roach said Wednesday that the Margarito camp "showed their true colors." And he isn't buying Garcia's apology.
