24/7 had a great premiere. The highlight of course was the argument between Jr. and Sr. That was not scripted and if it was everyone in that gym deserves an Oscar. I gained new respect for Roger simply because he stayed out of the argument between Sr. and Jr. plus he calmed Jr. down. Also his comment about Ortiz "Who the fuck is Ortiz? He ain't kin to me" great! Victor story is a good one and his team seems to be cool people. I did not know his trainer had issues with his brother. Family Feuds everywhere. I still like May in this fight sorry Vic (IMG:style_emoticons/default/black eye.gif)

I think Floyd is starting to break down mentally.

How so?

I think Sr. and Jr. have a very turbulant relationship. We only get to see one side of it. Maybe Jr. clearly has unresolved issues with his father and maybe his father doesn't understand that all water isn't under the bridge between the two. It was an ugly fight and I am sure they both said things in the heat of the argument. It happens. I did not know Sr. served jail time while Floyd was a kid. Sucks.


Did anyone peep how Curtis Jackson (50 Cent) through a fit cause some guy was eating his box of crackers? I had to laugh at that while listening to "Many Men." Then the dude came back and said "No one wants your box of crackers" lol!!! It was a great opener and Victor Ortiz has his work cut out for him. Less surfing more ring work!

Yeah that was the beginning of the end of their father/son relationship. Floyd was left in the wind for a while, and that has to suck for somebody that was forced into boxing in the first place. Dude finished his amateur career, went to the olympics, and went pro while Sr. was gone (IMG:style_emoticons/default/no2.gif) Now Sr. feels like Floyd owes him the world, when in fact, Floyd Jr.'s success as a pro, gave Sr. another chance at life...and a GOOD LIFE, might I add. In my opinion, they are even, so Sr. needs to shut up. His son could've ended up being a nobody or a career criminal, while he was away in prison, and Im pretty sure Sr. wouldn't be proud of his decisions as a father, let alone be able to look in the mirror everyday...bet he wouldn't be bragging about being "the reason why his son is what he is today". When you hear about Sr., he was a welterweight "contender" and "the guy" that fought Sugar Ray Leonard, when you hear about Roger, he was a two-time world champion, when you hear about Floyd, he is the multi-division champ and one of the biggest stars in the sport. See why Sr. is always so upset?

I think he just wants credit for starting it. Sr. got his brothers into boxing and also his son. So in his eyes no one would of had any success in the sport of boxing if it wasn't for him which may be true.

floyd jr always give his dad credit.

just watch the beginning of the episode.

its just that both floyd jr and sr have huge egos.

also it seems like floyd sr never gives credit to roger.
