Roach: "Mayweather, Jr. Not A Complete Fighter"

[Easy-E]

In a recent interview with the Los Angeles Times, trainer Freddie Roach spoke about training Oscar De La Hoya for the May 5 clash with Floyd Mayweather, Jr. in Las Vegas. [details]

Foolish, unsupported comments by a smart man.
Strange.

[Easy-E]

What do you expect to hear from the guy who's training PBF's opponent, "Floyd is P4P the best fighter I've seen in my life & my boy Oscar doesn't stand a chance"????? Even if Mayweather Sr trained Oscar, he'd talk a lil **** 'bout his own son, a trainers #1 job is to keep his fighter motivated. The trick is to pick sense out of nonsense, don't look to deep into what Freddie said, any valuable trainer would talk the same jive. Now Can u Dig Dat!!!

I would expect Freddie to say that FLoyd is a great fighter and it will be a diffucult challenge but he thinks Oscar can do it.
Just because Floyd is punking out doesnt mean Roach should.

I was watching some Floyd last night.

There may be flaws, and he should be a tad slower at 154.

I'd like to see if they can capitilize.

They'll have to keep him out of the zone - that's the real task at hand.

Naaaw, I don't think Senior punked out, I think he up'd the money he wanted to be paid because Oscar has or had the skills to give his son a real challenge (even though he'll still lose) & the experience to deal with what PBF is gon bring to 'um. It was a win win situation for Senior, he either gets $2 mil or avoids more conflict with his son over one of the biggest fights of his career. U Can Dig Dat!!!!!!

I was talking about Jr. punking out and talking **** to Oscar.

I still blame Roach for Pacman losing his first fight against Morales. Roach was pushing that "Manilla Ice" too much

At his natural weight and even a little above, yes he can. Its when he gets to 154 that he really won't be able to stand in with DLH. He usually stands toe-to-toe with everyone unless he breaks his hand. Thats not saying the he lets himself get hit, but when do you see him go almost completely defensive? When his hand is hurt. Floyd will do a lot of sticking and moving against DLH, win a UD and get ripped apart because he didn't stand in front of DLH and let himself get beat up.

But he isn't at his natural weight, so therefore your argument is void.

lol, nard is not complete.... he waits too much to throw, throws too few............................................... ........

nard is complete in the fact that he can box, stick and move, counter punch, fight dirty, jab or be the aggressor and stalk...

[goldenboy0620]

mayweather jr is P4P and mayweather jr win by UD !

prime nard did not have those flaws, but he always had trouble with movers.

so i would not say he was more complete than mayweather
