    Roger was Floyd's main trainer for many years, for like 20 of his fights i think. He should be given the opportunity to the experience this mega fight, being in the corner. It would be fitting for both Floyd Sr. and Roger to be there, they have co-trainined Floyd for so long.

    2 trainers with different fight mindsets telling floyd what to do at the same time in between rounds hindering floyds focus does not sound fitting at all

    imo Floyd wants to make his dad happy by letting him be his trainer for this fight and maybe his last fight as well. It'll improve their relationship and give Sr something to brag about.

    Roger knows what's up.

    Sr. before the fight. 'We are going to apply pressure behind thd jab, use our size advantage and force him to the ropes.'

    Sr. in the corner after Hatton got the **** kicked out of him trying to pressure Manny behind the jab. 'You are not doing what I told you.'

    They are going to melt down when things don't go exactly as envisioned and Sr. starts blaming Floyd.
