Rodger Mayweather doesnt need Trainer of the decade to tell that his fighter hasnt lost. The Proof is in the pudding. Floyd beat Oscar at 154 & Roach was his trainer, he beat Mosley the WW champ and N.Richardson was his trainer. So once again, these biases awards is not needed to prove a point.
Boxing needs Mayweather because with out him there is no drama, there is no mega bouts, there is no substance surrounding the sport. Everyone wants to know who FLOYD will fight. They including Manny fans die to see Floyd in action.

I dont believe the sport will be dead if mayweather leaves it will take a big blow but if pacquiao retires also it will not be in the mainstream anymore. The only people watching the fights will be boxing fans not casual fans which floyd and pacquiao bring to the sport. Oscar passed the torch onto mayweather and pacquiao, star power wise. Floyd is not going to lose right now, and pacquiao's only challenge that he will take on is maybe mayweather. Mayweather will not pass his star power to anyone and pacquiao will only pass his on to mayweather.

YEa boxing is dead for people who only follow one fighter.
If your a real boxing fan you follow all the fighters. One fighter dont make a sport

Boxing still managed to be huge after Robinson, Ali, Leonard, Duran, JCC, Whitaker retired and I think it will still manage it when Floyd goes, even though he will be missed.
