    With Floyd demanding Roger leave Forbes, is he being a huge hypocrite?

    Surely Floyd does have the right to fire his trainer, IF his trainer might cost him a future bout (should Forbes manage to win). But what of Floyd'd *AHEM* 20 MILL venture to WWE. He CAN get hurt. And if he does, if it postpones his Sept. fight w/ Goldy, what does Roger do? Sit around doing NOTHING? :huh Floyd wants his extra caricular activity, why can't Roger train his other fighter while Floyd's pretending to be TV Gladiator?

    This is just another reason in which Floyd has turned off so many fans. His mouth and ego make more headlines then his boxing has.

    But really, does HE really think Forbes has a chance at beating DLH? :huh

    It's not only hypocritical, it is also completely stupid.

    If he thinks that the talents of his fathers coaching suffices to beat DLH, how does that rank his second bout with DLH in his own mind? He is virtually saying that DLH isn't worth fighting.

    This thread doesn't make sense. First off, the WWE is scripted. Floyd knows what he has to lose. I seriously doubt he will be put in a position where he could actually get hurt. Furthermore, Roger works for Floyd, not the other way around. He has the right to fire him for any reason.

    In the end, I don't agree with what Floyd did. However, I don't see how his actions make him a hypocrite.

    So because it's scripted, he cannot get hurt Reg? Guess someone forgot to tell Owen Hart that.

    It's hypocritical because he's basicaly telling Roger NOT to do anything to jeapardize his fight w/ Oscar, yet he's jeopardizing it himself with the possibility of getting hurt. One bad landing and he might be out for 5-6 months.

    I forgot what the word "hypocritical" meant, I later looked it up in a dictionary and found a picture of Floyd Mayweather without a definition

    Are you serious, did you mention Owen Hart? Owen Hart was a professional wreslter. He's trained for this type of ****. They will naturally put him in more harms way. Floyd is not a trained professional. He knows what is at stake. He won't be taking any real chances. Floyd's goal in this is not to get hurt and ruin the DLH fight. Roger's goal in training Forbes is to train his fighter to win, which would ruin the DLH fight. Once again, I was dissapointed by Floyd's actions. However, there is no hypocrisy here.
