    Hmmm what are you talking about? FOR the longest time he was saying he wouldn't train Oscar because he thought it was wrong to coach against his SON... At the end of the DAY its FLoyds JOB to respect his Daddy 1st.. And FYI its Floyd who is the hater of his daddy.. not the other way around...

      With the bad blood between them it's no big surprise. He thinks Jr. is getting a big head and wants to see him humbled. I doubt that he wants to see Jr. get hurt, just lose. I say this from experience.

        It's called acting. Regardless of how much they hate each other in the past, Junior still carries the family name "Mayweather" and Senior would love nothing more than his son whoop The Golden Boy. I really think Dela Hoya is screwed if he keeps Senior as his trainer.

        It's all adds to the hype and drama.

          I seems very odd that a father of a fighter would be training the son's opponent to beat him. Having said that, Mayweather Sr. and Jr. had a falling out some time ago about PBF giving the job of manager to an inexperienced rapper over his father, and as a result lost them both alot of money. I suspect that there are deeper issues than what happened and Floyd Sr. and Floyd Jr. are the only ones who really know.

            Its simple.. Floyd grew up in a RICH boxing family.. he has had the benefiets of Having boxing and good boxing people around him all his life.. A man that trained him fed him and clothed him and Baby Floyd wont give his daddy any credit..
            Floyd Thinks he is bigger than Jesus.. He is a disrespecful arrogant ****ing twerp..
            if he was my son. I would train figters to beat him as well..

              ODLH isn't dumb. Seems to me if he thought Sr. was setting him up, he'd see it. Although I can't really see why he would go with his opponents dad as a trainer.

                the main reason why floyd sr is doing this is because he feels his son
                has become too greedy and arogant. floyd sr knows his son is the best
                but he feels he is getting out of controll and he hopes him losing will bring him back to earth.

                too bad oscar isnt the one who is going to do it

                  Sorry buddy, but kids in RICH families don't grow up on the SE side of Grand Rapids Michigan. If you don't know the story behind the falling out then don't try to diss either one of them. You're just taking your Floyd Jr. hate a little too far.

                    Does anyone else find it absolutely hilarious that this dude talks EXACTLY like Floyd Sr. does? I mean, he uses the same lingo and everything. rofl.
