    Sad to hear

    Floyds right about getting Rogers nutrition in order

    What we eat is important

    Hope it gets better for rog

        I'm not sure who came up with those combinations but my guess would be Roger and Floyd. It would be cool though to see Jr and Sr on the pads.
        I'd say Roger, I saw the difference when Roger started training him officially but Roger at this point, even though it may be a bit of a gamble to switch over to Sr. on the mitts, I don't see how Roger can do him any good.

            Regardless of the racists ******s in this forum with their double standards, i still feel bad for boxers who retire from the sport leaving years and years of their lives inside the ring.

            Thats sad man, boxing is a brutal sport. At least floyd will take care of him better than any1 else.
            There's no such post. You fabricated that to make this a Floyd vs Pac warfare. Brandon Rios and Antonio Margarito made fun of Roach, not Floyd fans.

              It is very sad but not surprising TBH 80 odd pro fights, 1000's of rounds sparred and countless gym wars, the exposure to head trauma is massive. It is good for combat sports that gym wars etc are fading out and exposure is beginning to be more limited. The Brain can heal to a point (obviously everyone is different) so hopefully with advances in medicine etc a better understanding of exposure with arise and people won't suffered the fate of which many fighters have.

                  That sucks for Roger. One of my favorite scenes in 24/7 is Roger going to Quizno's and getting a Sammy.

                    which is why fighters that take steroids and PEDs should be banned for five years MINIMUM and criminally prosecuted.

                    This isn't running faster, or jumping higher, than the other guy; this is the hurt business and you're potentially ****ing with another mans health/life!
