Comments Thread For: Mayweather Sr. Discusses Being in Camp With Floyd

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

As he enters his 44th professional bout, there is again a special kind of aura in the camp of Floyd Mayweather.

Readying himself for a May 4th defense of his WBC welterweight crown against interim champion Robert “The Ghost” Guerrero, Mayweather seems as focused as ever heading into what looks to be the final championship run of his career.

That doesn’t mean that a few things in camp haven’t changed, however, as some faces have left the scene while others have reemerged.

For the Guerrero fight, Mayweather’s father Floyd Sr. has thus far played an instrumental role in his training by simply overseeing his son’s work and offering up his own personal advice and insight while inside of the gym. [Click Here To Read More]

I'm not sure how this actually works in practice because no matter what Floyd Jr wants to say, Floyd Sr can not speak his real mind because he's afraid of offending Floyd Jr. It's sad being there and too many cooks spoil the broth. Floyd Sr is the best trainer out there and a disciplinarian. If Floyd Sr was Jr's trainer, Jr would never be involved in a war, he would be hitting and moving. Floyd Jr would never have gone to 154lbs because he's a 147lbs fighter. Floyd Sr is the voice of reason who has Jr's real interests at heart. All he tried to do was making his son the best and I can not see how anyone can not feel for him.

Yea its a ****ed up situation, there are real issues under the surface that interfere with what should be a strictly boxing relationship.

Just ride it out SR...hold him down till his career ends and it's a-okay.

Floyd Senior just reeks of a massive inferiority complex.

He flips everything to be about him... example: I made Floyd a world champion.

Uhh, no you didn't. Floyd made Floyd a world champion.

I can see why no one sticks with the man.

i agree with you but he is still a good trainer, but its only a matter of time before they clash again cause we all know jr has a massive inferiority complex too.

Floyd should not treat his Father badly, If it wasnt for him out one night smoking crack sleeping with strange women, Floyd Jr would have never been born.
So what if Floyd Sr beats on women uses drugs and drinks and went to Jail a lot...Damn...Sounds like Floyd Jr. WOW, and Roger Mayweather. The apple sure does not fall far from the tree!
