    He trained hasim rahman for one fight.He's never trained any other fighters of note and when he got to mayweather he was already a great amatuer fighter.And now mayweather says"You ain't got nothing on roger"or whatever he said.Please.

    They say that Floyd tries to keep Roger very exclusive.

    Jesse Vargas was a rising prospect that was with Roger but is now being trained elsewhere. Maybe this has to do with it. A prospect would want someone paying hard attention to their development.

    I've heard Floyd has been for the most part...training himself. Roger holds the mitts. He doesn't really need to do much for Floyd. He's a fighter who manages his own training and delagates what he needs in camp and has the resources to get it done.

    yeah I would expect so. That's a reason why Jose benavdeiz left Roach, but he's back now

    That's probably true now. I bet Bernard is similar to that also, but I'm sure Roger was much more hands on earlier in Floyd's career

    considering that floyd likes to take long vacations, roger have all the time in the world to train others.

    but roger helped improve mayweathers defence and made him less aggressive

    Yeah fair point, but Roger still plays a big part, his corner work(in fight) is epic!

    Like stated before, he was training Jesse, but he's switched trainers, so I'm guessing it had something to do with Floyd coming back
