    If that were the case then he would have pulled what Oscar Pulled on Quartey before they fought some years back, and said if you take the fight then our deal is off. If he just thought that Forbes could beat Oscar he wouldnt be saying for Rodger not to train him, he would be tring to stop the fight.:good

    Anyone thought this could be hype? Forbes cant beat Oscar and I suspect Mayweather knows this unless he truly doesnt watch boxing as he claims

    In a way without saying it Floyd is stopping the fight ... whoelse is going to train Forbes?

    Why put in all the work w/ Forbes to just walk away?

    Floyd must have seen Forbes making progress in his training and thought that Forbes was serious about winning the fight.

    Yeah cuz Forbes never had a trainer before Rodger did he:patsch

    So times people just post stuff without thinking. There would be 25 top trainers lined up around the corner to train Forbes for this fight.

    LOL.. at all these people getting on Floyd for not fighting Cotto. Floyd would smash and beat Cotto rather easily... Cotto would walk into punches all night going against Floyd.

    Floyd is at all of the fights and i'm pretty sure that he watches them on TV as well ... I think that Floyd may see Roger giving Stevie some good strategies on how to beat DLH.

    The blue print is already out there on how to beat DLH its only a matterr of executing it properly.

    If Forbes is truley dedicated to his training and is showing promise then that would cause some serious concern for Floyd --

    But then again like you said ... its all about hyping the fight and the drama ... these *******s are serious about make Floyd vs Oscar a true soap opera!!

    If so shame on them and at the same time great strategy, but the fight by itself can't sell - to hardcore fans ... and if there's some sign of added drama it will draw a bigger crowd.

    You see it has all of us posting at will --

    Maybe its so that you add a beef between trainer and fighter w/ the family fued that's already the Mayweather clan.

    Yeah but Roger has experience against Oscar ... Forbes sees that as an advantage. (I would)

    Who would he be able to pick up -- w/o getting raped for a nice paycheck?

    Jack Mosely has more experience against Oscar why not hire him. You not going to win on the trainer thing man. Steward trained Oscar so did roach. why not hire one of them??

    That wouldn't happen ... Forbes would be dumb to take that ...

    Maybe Emmanuel Steward but once you start doing that you have to start digging deep into your purse.

    And to pick up a fighter this far into training and so close to the fight would be ridiculous and only for the money.

    No one's going to be able to train him better or more effective right now than the guy who's been training him so far.

    Roach is not going to train him, Pac has a huge fight w/ Diaz coming up this summer - because of future endevors w/ GB, neither is Jack Mosley because his son is a partner of some sort with the company.

    Then you have to factor in these guys have other fighters whom they've been with for quite sometime and they have fights coming up -- I don't know any elite trainer that would pick him up and dump their fighter off top.

    Steward has Andy Lee, Cintron, and Klitschko ... I don't see him dumping any of those guys for Forbes.

    Mosley has a big fight coming up with his so fighting Zab Judah and Judah has made changes in his corner so they're going to be extra carefull.

    You can't win the arguement.

    :lol:

    Is it safe to say that the Mayweather Family is a VOLATILE personality pot?:rofl Yet, Floyd is the spoiled persona gone mad. His point is understandable to a degree, but GUESS WHAT?

    The DLH 2 fight is a SHAM and we already KNOW IT!!:yep
    Forbes aint gonna beat DLH regardless if he had Futch, ROG, and SR. all working TOGETHER on it:lol:

    Floyd will win a SHAM being forced upon the public so he can play Wrestling, TALK MMA, and CASHING IN ON AN EASY WIN and still not defending against a real WW:hey

    ITS THE PATTERN!!!

    Something I've been saying for almost 8 years now:D

    Then when he's finally forced to face Miguel Cotto? If:)yep ) he loses?
    The excuse's will be, out of shape, past prime, feuding with Roger, Sr. and Wrestling/talking of MMA wore him out and made him past prime. They'll surely be HARDCORE GROUPIES who sing a robber's song:rofl

    Guess who's next after DLH? :huh ....:lol:

    There shouldnt even have been a DLH 2:nono

    Hey wait a minute???? If Floyd wants to duck Cotto some more after that? SPadafora should be an easy fight:rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl
