    I remember in one of the very 1st 24/7's with Floyd-Oscar that Roger said when he was young and only like 115 pounds, he knocked his trainer the **** out. I doubt if it was Reid but that tells you that he wouldnt have any problem going off on one of his trainers, lol

    Reid also talked about guys leaving broke at the end so maybe they started arguing about how much money he should get like what happened with Hopkins & Fischer

      PEDs didn't exist back then, so it was not an issue.

          Floyd Sr. said in an interview that he was trained by Darryl Williams. Hank Grooms was just his manager I believe.

                No, Tyrone Biggums wasn't his trainer.

                It was Darryl Williams son!

                    Floyd Sr.: My style ain’t like nobody else, man. Its so many different things I do. I was trained by a real good trainer named Darryl Williams. It’s been so long ago that he’s passed now. I learned so much being trained by him, even though he was an older man then.
