    To be honest, Dawson looked his best when he had Sr. as a trainer.

    His absolute best and he was undefeated until he changed trainers. Than came the Pascal debacle..

    Top 25 Trainers of all time- Floyd Sr.,Roger Maywether & Jeff Mayweather (who's raised to champions from scratch) are all in that club !

    He gave Zelenoff a run for his money. That alone makes him better than jnr

    Floyd Sr. created the blueprint for Floyd Jr's success but he couldn't duplicate success for the other fighters he's trained. I think he's a good trainer but not the greatest of all time. Virgil Hunter is better.

    SR wasn't with him during those fights as far as I'm concerned. I could be wrong.

    You are wrong. Sr. was his trainer for both.
