    Just because Sr. is a world class and Top 5 trainer in boxing doesnt mean that Floyd prefers him over Roger. People are using that as crutch. Roger and Sr are two different people.

    I understand all that and i agree with what you said but Floyd Choosing Rofger was out of necessity and not becasue he felt Roger was the better trainer. Floyd and Big Floyd were having personall issues and it had nothing to do with Jr not getting trained right.


    And the point has already been made. Why the negotiation if it was pretty obvious for over a year now that Roger could be going to jail.

      But Let me add to it: People in here say all Roger does is the hold the mitts.

      Ummm isnt Sr.'s job to hold the heavy bag?
      *******s dont care about anything but making up outlandish excuses and blaming **** on floyd.

      its pretty sad, the length they go to...smh

        You want him to be trained by someone he has trouble getting along with?
        To get this fight going yes! Look im not a Pac man fan im a boxing fan and after having to endure the PED ******ity, the money issues and now the ***ing trainer issue i'm sorry but this fight has produced nothing but excuse after excuse after excuse and i'm ***ing sick of guys like you nodding your heads like sheep and agreeing to every bull**** excuse that keeps this fight from happening?


        Isn't it in your intrest for this fight to actually happen? *** Floyd and Pac's intrests this is about our intrests! You know the actual fans!

        Seriously why would you a boxing fan be in favor of a fighters intrests over your intrests?

              i think hes on peds

              and all the lies coming from their camp rather than accepting blame for their own doings

              you *******s come with an excuses to everything...literally, EVE-RY-THING

              now, all of a sudden, its cool for floyd to fight without his trainer in his corner but yall wouldnt want pac to fight without roach in his. you see how pathetic yall are?

              now thats the pot calling the kettle black

                    Find a post where I said I'm in favor of it. I'm on record here several times saying that I'm sick of all this ****. But I'm on a discussion forum, and this is what's being discussed, so I'm discussing it.

                    My argument has nothing to do with anyone's interests. I'm making a "shoe on the other foot" argument. People are saying Mayweather should have to do something they wouldn't ask Pacquiao to do. And I think that's ******.

                      I shouldnt be surprised. This same fan base enjoyed that Clottey couldnt have his real trainer.
