    Of a twat towards his dad..?

    You can see how hurt, Floyd Mayweather Senior is in this video.

    I don't understand what Floyd Mayweather Senior actually did, for him to fall out with Junior.

    If it was'nt for his dad, he would'nt be where he is today..! there would be no foundation.

    His dad's in good shape in this video aswell, considering his health issues and age.

    Dudes in great shape period. Most guys half his age with no health issues don't look that good.

    Yeh the mayweathers have great genetics aswell, i can remember during Mayweather vs De La Hoya 24/7.

    Floyd Mayweather was eating sweets, and drinking coke while trainning.

    Maybe he was just showing off, infront of the cameras though :lol:

    I think Senior Mayweather has been a bit of a git throughout Floyd s life.

    Floyd Jnr said in the past his dad use to beat him + being drunk unreliable ex crack addict philanderer might slightly put him off.

    Just because someones your dad they can still be an unlikable *******.

    Don't know why Senior was playing the emotional card. In another 24/7 (I think it was Hatton-Mayweather) when they told him Floyd took his anger against his dad out on his fighters, he said, he better take it out on them because if he takes it out on me I'll give him an ass-kicking :lol:

    I think that part about his dad being a crackhead drunk and beating him up as a little boy, might have something to do with his dissasociation with his dad.

    If my dad was like that I would want to disown him as well.

    Yeah exactly it would, Lil' Floyd's shown a lot of strength of character to get to where he has.

    Floyd senior always comes across as a horrible nasty bitter old man who turned his son into a boxing machine so that the world would finally give him the respect HE believes HE's due . Thats why he threw ricky into sparring with lara so that roger would be impressed with how good HIS fighter is . Thats why he resents roach who is a better coach so much . Thats why he worked with de la hoya so he could try and show floyd jnr that he'd be nothing without HIM .

    Sounds just about right to me:deal

    and that's a good point about the Lara sparring wtf was the point in him sparring a LMW (southpaw yes)in preparation for Pacquiao. Lara obviously worked him over then came out in the press saying Hatton wasn't all that....utter bull****.

    I think that was a massive factor in what happened against pac . Getting battered by a LMW former cuban amatuer standout who was probably closer to SMW in weight at that point is going to take it out of anybody . Why put your fighter in with a guy like that something like a week before he's due to fight a hard punching fiend like pac . All your going to do is diminish his punch resistance and wreck his confidence. Madness Mayweather snr just lost he plot and all the attention went to his head.

    His confidence was incredibly low when he came into the ring the look ofa man being taken to the gallows.. as for the punch resistance that had already boarded a plane back to Manchester
