    About the Roger stuff..

    Floyd says that about gameplans being Roger's then says 'i don't have gameplans, i adapt! i get in the ring and do what i gotta do'. Guy is a talent and i'm a fan of his skills but he's a dickhead.

    Roger is his eyes in the ring. Little adjustments, spotting tendencies to take advantage of.

    Diaz is a boss.

    I like the little things that he brings to the table in terms of using new methods in training.

    Floyd is just so trashy as a person.

    I think this is in reply to me . . .

    I know and understand that he adapts in the ring, however, surely you can't operate like that against world class oposition!?

    I know he has immense skill, experience and talent but his training camps have to have some strategy or so called formula surely!?

    Uncle Roger must instruct him in that department?

    24/7 has improved as a programme. However Mayweather has not and I'm more hopeful that Cotto beats that fried chicken eating SOB.

    I thought floyd was always like that. He doesnt have a nutritionist and while obviously he doesnt eat take away every night he will still eat it during camp and his always drinking fizzy drink.

    Whatever he's been doing up until now has worked wonders, he shouldn't change anything. Floyd is always in great condition.

    Also, Floyd and 50 are both definitely uphill gardeners.

    Floyd and Fiddy are both homos in fact I have inside information that they regularly two's up on Leonard Ellerbe.

    You need to listen careful as they are not going to broadcast their tactics on air are they. Uncle Roger made a pertinent point that Cotto is still the same Cotto. It is not rocket science that Cotto can essentially only approach this fight in 2 ways one of which will get him knocked out earlier the other will get him knocked out later. The 3rd option is at some stage he will be forced to quit. Unfortunately he has surrendered before which means it could potentially happen again. Confidence wise Miguel is in a good place but May 5th is the end of the road.

    It was yes, I think Floyd talks a lot and contradicts himself with comments like 'i adapt in ring i don't need a gameplan' then says 'My Uncle does the gameplans' Floyd likes to talk obviously. Roger does give him a platform to work off, a gameplan and some tips but i think Roger manages Floyd well. Doesn't over do it just guides him along without to much fuss.

    Mayweather has such a horrible personality. He has no redeeming qualities outside of the ring. There was probably a time when I would have disliked him enough to hope he got beat and watch his fights with some interest. Now, I just don't care. If he wins, so be it, and if he loses, I'm not bothered either. He's a selfish, greedy, lying, bully who only serves himself and his team of fluffers. Ugh...

    Mayweather really does have that diet. Boxing is so much a mental sport so its just about keeping himself happy.

    Diaz is quality.

    Didn’t he say something like.. “unbeatable people only exist in the movies”

    I cant remember which 24/7 it was, but Roger was taking some anger management classes….. They defiantly seemed to have worked. He is proper chilled out.

    But like most have already said….

    We need to see more of Diaz & uncle roger
    &
    Floyd & fiddy, 100% love the ****!
