    Just another stumbling block.

    I wouldn't have thought it would be to much of a biggie to be honest, he does have his dad at hand.

    Plus Uncle Rog needs to be found guilty first

    You also have to factor level of comfortability that he's had with Roger for so long.

    FMJR has shown before that he can separate personal issues from boxing, so I don't think roger going to jail would be the cause of him backing out of a pacquiao fight. That doesn't mean i think he'll fight him, only that an incarcerated roger wouldn't be the reason for ducking pacquiao

    They might as well put it in the contract now. Floyd will demand Pac get trained by Buboy, while Floyd gets his daddy back.

    THIS.

    Floyd and his uncle have been a team for a long time now. Anybody can prepare Floyd in his fights physically, but he may not be the same in terms of mental preparedness without Roger.

    Arum himself said Pacquiao wouldn't fight without Roach as his trainer so there's a whole lot of fail in here

    If this is true I fail to see how people cant understand the importance of floyd having his trainer beside his side in the biggest fight not only in his career but boxing.

    People will say floyd said he trains himself. Well floyd also said he the best of all time. So i guess we pick and chose what we want to believe? As long as it fits our argument?

    If floyd chooses not to fight in november then it's no big deal as long as it happens in may 2011. If at that time floyd doesn't take the fight then we can all officially say he ducked Pac.

    Of course they pick and choose. That's what they love to do, then when you call them out on it, they say they have a right to pick and choose.

    Lmao

    I agree.....I just think that Floyd...like a Nard has the ability to basically be comfortable in training themselves. They just need someone to manage the training camp itself. I think it would be interesting if Rog goes away to see Sr as the fill in for Floyd. A great story there for sure.

    :lol: Why you mad bro? If it's a lie it's b/c Floyd and Roger aren't telling the truth. Floyd and Roger have BOTH said that Floyd pretty much trains himself. Relax....:smoke

    Floyd saying he's the best of all time is on Floyd.....just like Floyd saying he trains himself. So unless there is reason NOT to believe Floyd by contradictive actions or comments then we should be able to take Floyd at face value. With or without this particular hold up or obstacle in making this fight reality should not be the only factor in figuring out who is to blame if this fight doesn't come off.

    Possibly but it's better not even risking it IMO specially with the biggest fight possibly ever on the line.

    I agree with you on that.....but again... Floyd has stated PAC as being an easy task. He said that in no way, shape, form or fashion that Manny presents any real tests. So if that is true he shouldn't have much problem taking the fight.....but of course this fight being "easy" to make has been anything but!
