    i dont think he's going for a mayweather has he's looking for a coach in miami, but if he wants a mayweather roger is the best.

    Cubans should use more Orlando Cuellar, he is a local and a good trainer-many times the language is a handicap in a relashionship boxer- trainer

    the more I think about, the more I feel Rigo would've been better off sticking with Roach. We'll never know unfortunately. I think he can achieve greatness regardless but I am slightly less confident now than before this news.

    He needs to know that only a roach will survice a nuclear war, and that is a scientific factor.

  6. There is Waaaaaaay too much hype surrounding this guy. Sounds like he was having second thoughts about getting into the ring with the Columbian.

    THat is true:good And i think Rigoundeaux has every right to have a trainer who spends more time training him. If i was Rigoundeauxs manager i would want a top notch trainer like Freddie but not if my guys has got to get in line. There are some other top notch trainers that would give Rigoundeaux there full attention.

    Nacho would be good and there would be no language barrier.

    Im not so sure about Floyd he might be a little overrated as a trainer.

    Even his own brother Roger said on 24/7 "My brother couldnt train a daaaaaaaawg":lol::lol:

    ... I liked what he did for Oscar in the Mayorga fight.

    I was going to mention Nacho or the Professor...

    IMO Oscar would have be a helluva fighter with or without Floyd, I think a lot of it had to do with a combination of Oscar just looking like his old self and Mayorgas style.

    You never know maybe Floyd is a good trainer but i dont think he has earned all the accolades yet, its not like he is the only one who brought up Floyd Jr, Floyd Sr was gone for a lot of the years that JR was coming up.


    Has the Professor trained any name fighters in recent years?

    If there is a language barrier, training with the mayweathers would be a very big problem. You need subtitles for Floyd Sr.'s english, man.
