"mayweather sr to train train andre dirrel" Thats a lot better than most trainers. He ain't just gonna train Andre, he's gonna TRAIN TRAIN Andre!!
Good. Maybe the guy could learn how to fight in the pocket and use smart boxing instead of uneducated running like a *****.
but seriously, this might be a good thing for Direll. Sr dont take no bull****. Dawson couldnt handle it even tho Sr was the one who led him to his victory over Adamek.
I agree its a good fit for sure. Dirrell has a a world of talent and his style will work with Sr. Say what you want about the guy and his personal bull**** Sr is a very good trainer. My only concern would be if Dirrell can handle is approach.
I feel you, I just hope him hanging around the Mayweather gym and Jr. himself helped his mentality and make him mentally stronger
According to world-class trainer Floyd Mayweather Sr., he will soon be training super middleweight contender Andre Dirrell. "That's supposed to be true. I haven't really started with him yet, but as far as I know," Mayweather Sr. commented when asked if it was true that he had been contacted about the possibility of working with Dirrell, who recently signed with 50 Cent's newly formed TMT Promotions. "Him and 50 Cent came up to the gym one day and 50 Cent said, 'I hope you please say yes, man, but I want you to train Andre Dirrell for me,'" Mayweather Sr. recalled. "I told him, 'No problem I will work with him.'"
I think it would be a good fit if Sr was healthy, but there's been talk that his physical health has deteriorated so much that he can't do nearly as much of the work as he used to (not to mention the mental slippage as well). It's a shame if true, as a healthy Sr is the best trainer of the Mayweathers IMO.
