    Hey..

    My first post here.

    Thought I might post something interesting I read a little earlier today.

    http://www.mlive.com/mayweather/index.ssf/2013/05/roger_mayweather_wont_be_in_ne.html

    Roger won't be in Floyd's corner for the first time in 13 years. Floyd claims its because of his vision/diabetes.

    Whats everyones thoughts? You think this is a bad mistake by Floyd after all the success hes had with Roger? Will Floyd SR. do a more than adequate job?

    he doesn't need roger but it obviously wouldn't hurt for roger to be there...

    someone posted that he could be in floyds corner and would still win and its true i mean the guy hate him or love him is practically unbeatable right now

    nonetheless i dont think he wants anything to do with canelo cause of the size and ****

    Well we'll have to see, I think it'll take him a few rounds to adjust, but he'll be fine.

    The past two fights, he's jumped out to fast starts. I hope that trend continues.

    Hes fighting Robert Guerrero FFS.

    He could have Sally Field in his corner and he would still win easy.

    He wont miss the usual Uncle Roger crackhead line of "fdffdgfhgh box jtrhtjrr thayyyt mu****a jdfjdfjf" round after round.

    I'm going miss him say box that mutha****a. In all seriousness won't make a difference even though he's a good trainer. Benard Hopkins once said if u can hold a spit bucket u can work my corner. Same can be said about Floyd.

    Floyd gonna knock him out in the first round yeah? Probably the first punch he lands right? Guerrero's an E class fighter after all, just a bum I guess.

    I expect floyd to take a couple rounds to adjust. Not because of the trainer in his corner but because he's older and will want to feel Guerrero out before he starts attacking. I expect Mayweather to find real defensive till round 4 and start picking his punches till he unanimously wins.

    No surprise Floyd has been saying for ages that due to Roger's diabetes he thinks Roger isn't as sharp as he used to be, that's why Floyd Sr came in to the camp

    I don't like it Unca Roger is a boxing genius and PBF will miss his "box dat mutha****a" in the corner.

    Ain't the first time anyway.

    Baldomir never felt any benefit of not having Uncle Roger in Floyd's corner.

    At this point Floyd doesnt even need a trainer. He figures his opponets well and makes adjustments without corned advice
