EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: ROGER MAYWEATHER
Editor here with Roger Mayweather one of the best and well known trainers in the game today. What's good my man?
I'm just chilling right now. We just got back from Canada for Ishe Smith's fight on ESPN.
Speaking of Ishe what grade do you give him for his performance against Joel Julio?
Well for the last five rounds I give him an A. The first five rounds he didn't do what he trained for. He didn't throw enough punches. Julio really wasn't landing **** but Ishe wasn't throwing enough. So I guess they got to give it to the guy that's more busier.
What did you tell Ishe between rounds?
I told him he's gotta back Julio up. I told Ishe to put pressure on him and cut down his range of movement. Stay busier and land some shots on his ass.
What did you think of Ishe's counter punching?
He did a great job of that. But boxing aint about counter punching. **** that counter punching man it's about winning the fight. Counter punching don't mean **** to me if a mother ****er don't win the fight. The bottom line is that you got to go out there and win the fight. Take the fight to the mother ****er instead of waiting on his ass. You have to put on a good performance by keeping your hands moving. I can see why some people said it was a close fight. Ishe landed clean shots and he was catching and rolling most of Julio's punches. It was a good fight.
Do you think you will see a different Oscar when your nephew rematches him in September being that your brother will be in his corner?
It will be a different Oscar but he will still get his ass beat no matter who is in his corner. It don't make a difference no god damn way. I don't give a **** who's in his corner cuz Oscar can't outbox my nephew. He can't out think my nephew either. Boxing is a thinking man's game and Floyd is the smartest boxer out there.
Roger tell us who you like between Calzaghe and Roy Jones Jr?
Roy Jones would win that fight. He's got the edge in skills and speed. Calzaghe slaps like a girl
. I can't stand all that slapping ****. The fight was close with him and Hopkins
. I mean he didn't dominate Hopkins and Hokpins is forty something years old. Roy Jones got a little more pop than Hopkins too. Roy has got better head movement than Calzaghe and just flat out boxing skills.
Can we get some closing statements to the fans at Edit?
I love my fans at Edit man. That's why I never hold back. I always tell it like it is. Even if a mother ****er don't like it I always spit the truth. I got a young fighter right now name Said Ouali. He's a welterweight and I think he's ranked #11 by the WBC. He's a good young fighter and he's got heavy hands man. He can punch like Cotto. So look out for him.
