Roger Lee Trust "The Black Mamba" Mayweather

I'm one of those guys who can sit through most fights haha so I didn't mind it, however I wouldn't recommend it for someone like @CST80 for example , who would probably smash his laptop and start cursing Mayweather endlessly afterwards

Edit: Just saw @CST80 and his post just above so maybe he would enjoy it

 

Another member of our boxing family gone way too soon R I P Black Mamba My sincere condolences to the family

 

Very enjoyable read IB, muchos gracias and RIP the Black Mamba.

 

IB, on a scale of 1-10 (one being comparable to Judah-Witter, Ruiz-Valuev or Hughie Fury levels of impenetrably boring fights; ten being around the level of Margarito-Cotto I) how would you rate this one?

 

"Roger Mayweather made the Mayweather name, and I took it to the next level" - Floyd Jr.

 

Hmm, is a 6.5 worth spending half an hour+ watching? Which fight would you compare it to on this scale?

 

Thanks for the post, before my time but he and Freddy Roach are two trainers turned fighters who I've wanted to try to watch more of their fights

He fought a hell of a fight vs Chavez and Whitaker

 

Yeah, I know this Gato is a bit of a newer, less special modern. I imagine that the younger Gato was drawn to the original due to the name, and ended up being and in awe of the Cat's style and talent. After that, I assume he then took on the nickname in an attempt to commemorate the older one, who's career was over for some four years before the younger one turned pro. Obviously this was in a frivolous fit of carelessness, inconsiderate to the poor souls who try to separate the two on forum's almost forty years later.

I'll give it a watch, for sure then. Sloppy action, is still action, as my desperate friend is so fond of telling people.

 

If you get hold of Roach vs Chacon, let me know please. Wanted to see that one for ages.
