Roger Mayweather maybe dumb overall

[S.G.]

He's played a big part in honing the greatest technician of our era's skills.

yeah he definately knows what he's doing, i have a lot of respect for him.. snooty rich people get their panties in a bunch when floyd is ****y and young and black.. but if you can see past that you will see a diamond in the rough. same goes for floyd sr and roger. skin deep you may see a crackhead, and there may not be a whole lot of depth to him. but he has real world experience and true knowledge that he acquired on the job. cant expect pac fans and freddie roach to be nice about him. but i dont take anything roger says personally. hes the type that doesnt respect anybody unless you earn it, and even if he respects you, you might not know it.. you have to have tough skin otherwise he'll hurt your feelings

Roger " Where do the greatest fighter in the world come from?"....lol....mid west...then he names louis, SRR, henry armstrong

Nah man, its different. Even on 24/7 when they asked Roger about Hatton he said that Hatton better win or retire if he cant beat a little man like that. If you asked him who will win between Pac-JMM or Campbell or whoever then he wouldve said a real pick. If you asked him about Pac vs anyone over LW then they are going to pick the bigger guys no matter who they are as long as they are respectable. I know how some think a guy will win because he's bigger & stronger but this is different. Its black & white to them. Its like Pac is too small and I dont have to think about it. Thats why they think he is on the juice

There's a lot of posters on here that do the same. I call them "size whores" because everything about boxing with them comes down to the question of "who's bigger?".....They simply can't get past size as the determining in a fight.

I've heard Roger plenty of times working the corner between rounds. I'm sorry but a great trainer needs a bit more in his repetoire than "Get out there and knock that mutha****a out! He ain't got ****!" That's pretty much the extent of Roger's corner work.

Wrong. For example he picked Mosley Over Margarito...guy asked, by technical skills? He said no, by an ass whoopin'. Besides...what this has to do with being a good trainer?
