Billy Graham is a smart man

[Azteca]

Billy is like the old bush horse trainer that finally had a champ walk in the door thats good enough to take on the big boys , now he and his champ are in the big smoke , as far as a trainer goes Billy is crude as far as a fighter goes Ricky is crude , but they both have big hearts and anything can sometimes happen .

Mayweather was unleashing that uppercut about 50 times a round. That thing looked wicked.

Kind of strange though, that punch is basically MIA in every other fight he has had.

I wish he would use the uppercut more, because it's a damn effective punch if landed, and Floyd's accuracy could make it land.

graham and roger are very similar. both a bunch of foul mouth indigent looking mofo's but great at what they do, and sharp as hell with boxing tact!

Mayweather didn't land 50 punches per round. Matter fact I think that was one of Mayweather's sloppiest fights. He was just way to defensive in that fight and allowed Chavez to trap him in the corner and pummel him. He just didn't counter enough, he only countered in spurts, but this was after the fight where he broke his hand, so that could be a reason why. It wasn't until round 8 & 9 where he started unleashing those uppercuts. Matter fact I had it dead even by round 8. A Floyd that never had to worry about his hands used to counter a lot.

Graham has a very intelligent boxing mind. I'm sure he's watched many of Mayweather's fights, but the concentration on the fight against Chavez really shows how serious he's taking the task at hand. Chavez and Hatton's styles are almost identical, and with the video I'm sure Graham noticed some flaws that Ricky could use to his advantage.

Hopefully it'll be a great fight, and not a disappointment.
