Well, it appears that Floyd Mayweather Sr. will be training his son for the upcoming May 4th bout.
What are your thoughts on this development ? |

could this possibly be because of floyd's poor performance against cotto?

Great point! This could be exactly the reason he brought his dad in, but Roger should be apart of camp as well. Sick or not Roger should be apart of the camp floyd talked all that shit about loyalty to his uncle blah,blah,blah...and cotto not having loyalty. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) this shit happens all the time. i don't know rogers situation....but it's an easy excuse and roger doesn't seem like the type to rock the boat for floyd. there are a lot of of ways to look at this...but i honestly believe floyd sr is the reason for all that skill. i've seen them both put in work and watched them teach. it's clear to me, floyd sr is the best boxing mind in that family. there's no denying floyd jr or rogers accomplishments....but floyd sr knows his shit. |

If that were the case Jr. would have gotten rid of his uncle years ago. I honestly believe Roger is on the down slide plus it seems that he really has a close relationship with his dad, but who knows what happens behind closed doors. Do you really think Floyd had a bad performance against Cotto? Wow. I thought it was a tough fight and Floyd knew that going in. Whoever he picks I am sure it will make for interesting television especially with his dad in the picture. I am sure 24/7 will open up its series with showing the clip of that infamous fight between father and son. Then they will go from there. The show will be around if father and son can get along. We shall see. THis shit really sales itself. |

Interesting, I think the bar is set high. Hell Floyd lost rounds against De La Hoya. I mean Cotto is still a dangerous fighter. I thought it was a very good scrap and it showed Floyd has heart and some fight in him. i enjoyed it! |

You gave Oscar 3 rounds? You were more generous than I was. I gave him 2. He gassed out and not only that but he did not make Mayweather work. Floyd was hitting him at will and even saw where Oscar's punches were coming from and to make things worse, Oscar never used his sizes to his advantage! Most of his punches were blocked and even worse this dude GASSED out! How does that happen? Floyd boxed beautifully even though Oscar's HBO fan boys said differently! Sucks for HBO now doesn't it? |
