    If Floyd Jr. had Roger's chin, he would have already been knocked out in his career. Great defense regardless. :deal

    No, Pacquiao fought Cotto 2.5 years before Mayweather did.

    Also, last I checked Money did not destroy DLH. And sure he widely beat Mosley, but he was also wobbled twice in one round.

    Floyd is going to do a number on Pacquiao Michigan mid west style. Freddie Roach is a joke coach. He is one of the biggest flaws Pacman has for this fight.

    Never said he wasn't Pimp. Roger still got KTFO more times than Audrey Harrison though. In-FACT Roger the bodger has twice as many ko losses as Roach does :lol:

    So let me see if I'm following you. If a trainer did have a professional career than the measuing stick is if the mayweahters would have beat him. If he didn't have a professional career then we look at how good of a trainer they are/were.

    So by your reasoning the Mayweathers are better than

    Ignacio Beristain, Lu Duva, Jack Blackburn and Eduardo Garcia but worse than Cus D'Amato, Eddie Futch, Emanuel Steward, and Angelo Dundee.

    You need to take some logic classes and get a better understanding of first truths.

    That was one of the best things I enjoyed about watching Roger as a kid: Somebody is getting knocked out. :lol:

    You need to take some lessons yourself. We're comparing a "specific set of trainers." In this case, 3 trainers: Roach and the Mayweather brothers (Roger/Floyd). You're trying to apply what I said TO EVERY OTHER DISCUSSION ABOUT TRAINERS/TRAINING. Wrong.

    It is a specific discussion about the 3 individuals named. It has no bearing on what my overall thought process is for every trainer in the history of the sport. In this case, all 3 fought professionally, and all 3 fought during the same era. The comparison is a natural one to make.

    Again: You need to read what is actually being written, instead of projecting what 'you think I am thinking.' It means EXACTLY what it says - Both Mayweathers would have whipped Roach's ass as a pro. Roach was known for taking punches. That doesn't mean Roach can't be a great trainer, but it certainly should make you question his knowledge about certain aspects of boxing.

    If you want to be trained by a guy who was known for eating punches, has Parkinsons because of it, and physically will find it hard to train you because of that disease..... That's your choice. Certainly wouldn't be mine. I'll go with Floyd Sr.

    Saw an interview with Freddie the other day. He rates plenty of guys above himself, especially Futch, pretty humble guy really.

    No no no you stink at logic. First truths, you have to understand first truths. For something to be true it has to be true of all cases. You if you have this measuring stick it has to work with all not just your little subset. If you are correct than the Mayweathers have to be better than everyone they could have beaten in the ring.

    In short you are a dumbass. You have dug yourself into a hole. Best to stop digging.

    You really are a dip**** and have a problem with the English language.

    Again: It was a singular point comparing Mayweather (Roger and Floyd) to Roach. You seem to can't get over it because of your Roach/Pacquiao man-crush. :rofl It has nothing to do with any other trainers.

    If you don't think their professional skill in the ring has any bearing on their skill as a trainer, we'll have to agree to disagree. That doesn't mean it is a "requirement" for a trainer to have been a world class boxer, but it certainly "doesn't hurt."

    Floyd Jnr has his faults but even with all the ****e he comes out with at times, he isn't stupid enough to believe this equation is as simple as I beat Marquez easy, Marquez knocked Pacquaio = I whoop Pacquaio......simple!!! He is in for his greatest challenge.

    Roger and Snr have picked against Pacquiao four or five times to my knowledge. They always get it wrong.

    As if hes really gonna say anything different lol, of course hes gonna say his sons gonna win.

    But this just adds more fuel to pac. This along with floyds racist rant will fuel and inspire pac to deliver a KO.

    Good luck floyd lol I wouldnt want to be him on May 2nd.
