    No Floyd Sr.= about 250k less PPV buys and less distractions for DLH...maybe makes for a better fight...no more gimmicks.

      It takes away from the drama of the fight. Thats about it. There are plenty of capable trainers out there. I think he should get Manny Steward on board.

        He doesn't seem to rate DLH, plus Oscar's not so similar to the guys Steward has had so much success with.

          it is the right thing to do. Neither party was comfortable with it so I'm glad we can move on and countdown the days to Oscar gets destroyed

              WTF are you getting these #'s from?
              Far not every PPV generates these #'s today.. and Mayweather SR. alone will give you 250 buys?!

              This is just ******

              Anyone who is willing to pay for this fight will already buy it regardless.
              You mean to tell me that if Sr is there you will buy it and if it's someone else in his corner you won't?



              IMO it will not add up to evan 1% in change variation

                I always see Steward as a HW trainer...
                Roach is a much better choice..


                But I would go with Jack Mosley
