      right answer.

      Floyd puts in the work, and Floyd steps into the ring.

      would he have made it this far with out his dad? no

      with out roger? no

      the end of the day Floyd is responsible for his own life and where he is today.

          Roger and Floyd himself made what he is today. Floyd Sr was out trafficking drugs and using his son as a shield. Did he get his son into boxing? Yes, and that's all he pretty much did.
          I think that's unfair.

          Big Floyd trained Lil Floyd for over a decade and conditioned the basic fundementals and then some directly to him and did an excellent job at doing it.

            IMO he clearly answered that question already.

              You're right. Right now I'm a little biased because of the hype of the show.

                The most credit should go to himself, and then his uncle. Snr comes over as a hanger on, glory hunter cashing in on his son's success.

                Floyd is one of those rare fighters than doesn't need someone else to devise a gameplan for him, he'll just work it out for himself in the ring.

                    Both.

                    Roger trained him and has helped to hone his technique.

                    Floyd Sr. has instilled the chip on Jr.'s shoulder and toughened him mentally to make him great.

                    But Floyd Jr. puts in all the work.

                      um floyd jr gave his dad credit watch the episode again.

                      floyd sr is the one who doesn't give roger credit.
