What an incredibly grounded, even-tempered fellow that Floyd Senior. Greatest trainer of all time, no doubt. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ok.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/ok.gif) Whether or not he is a good trainer is not something I care to contend, it's his own persistence to continually try to jam that concept down the public's throat that is always going to chafe PBF. When you're the best, do you really have to keep repeating it? Or, more to the point, do you really have to keep firing names out there to drive the point home? |

FMJ needs to ask himself that question. |

And you never hear Roach saying, "Well, this fighter says im the best", "that fighter says im the best", etc etc. Im jussayin. |

all this "greatest ever" bullshit was started by Ali, and just like his inflated predecessors, he wasn't the greatest ever.

HBO in my own words should take a real close look at that clip and check the person who aired it. Senior is a every good trainer and I don't believe you need to win a title to make you one. The reality check is this, you only have one father and in Floyd senior case one son, enjoy each other while you can.

The best thing that Sr. can do for his son, is shut up and continue to allow his son to be the arrogant asshole that he is. As soon as that "reality check" comes, then those 8-figure checks will start to slow down and nobody will care about this circus anymore. If anything, Floyd is keeping Sr. afloat and keeping money in his pockets as well. Its hard to say this, but that ignorant and arrogant attitude got Floyd to where he is today, and Sr. is just...well...Sr. is just Sr...another guy that chases Jr. around until he gets what he wants, which is a chance to stand in the same light as him. If Sr. needs this "televised father/son" relationship with his son, then he needs to leave boxing out of it and find another way of making that happen. If boxing is the only way he feels he can have a relationship with his son, then he needs to learn how to shut up long enough for Jr. to hit a downslide in his career...then wiggle his way back in.
