    He has a good style, just like his brother Roger. I think he pulls a Manny Steward move though by training fighters for big paydays instead of because they have skills he can maximize.

    Mayweather, Sr. is a legend in his own mind.

    once you get past the bravado......floyd, sr. is actually a brilliant trainer.....

    I think hatton was dumb to hire him in the first place looking back on it.....he said hatton was a worse version of gatti before the hatton-floyd fight......ricky should have known sr. would have not been dedicated to working with him...i.e. showing up late to sessions....

    Nope. Saying that he is good is already pushing it. A good coach needs to be sane.

    Id say good trainer but not great, i think people need to realize that it takes a long time to develop a fighter into what you want him to be, look how long Roach has been with Manny.

    Mayweather snr spent years honing the skills of his son, it did not happen overnight.

    Money means more to him than being a father, a trainer and all round good guy. A decent trainer but that's it.
