    Floyd gonna help Tete to make weight? That seemed to be his camps biggest concern going into the tournament.

      No matter how credible, qualified and experienced Floyd Mayweather sr. is, its probably a bad idea to switch trainers in the middle of the WBSS tournament.

      I may have missed something, perhaps Tete has worked with Mayweather in the past. Nevertheless, Ryan Burnett and Nonito are not expected to beat Zolani and should be the underdogs, so it probably wont matter for the next round in the WBSS bantamweight tournament.

        Ryan Burnett is the #1 seed. The Monster is the #2 seed.

          Has senior really proven he can successfully train anyone other than his son? Chad Dawson never seemed to master that shoulder roll

                Stylistically that's a good fit. Mayweather Sr will certainly improve him.

                  Yeah and on top of that he doesnt have much time at all to train him right.

                    Weird time to acquire a new trainer, but idk sh^t about those dudes who seemed more like a musical group chilling out then a corner team when I was seeing them all in the dressing room so doubt its an awful move.
