The build up to this fight is better then anything else I've ever seen.....
Ok, really did not expect that one. Prefight buildup is garbage imo but this is big. Man, I mean I hate to be so shallow about this since it's family we're talking about, but Floyd is really trying to get in Oscar's head now. Holy...man that is unbelievable.
I knew there was gonna be some trash talk, knew tempers would flare but that is one thing that came completely from left field.
WOW - .. the secrets and little things that can be shared and used against Oscar. you know? Oscar don't like when you do this or do that, watch the left eye twitch and this will happen . sounds corny , but little things like that are huge , and when you have the kind of talent Mayweather has , you can process that information and take advantage of these situations instantly . The good news is there aint nothing a good str8 RT hand won't cureOriginally Posted by amat

Yeah I mean I guess I should have thought about it but just 2 or 3 weeks after Floyd Sr. offered to sell his son up the river for 2 mil, he's in his son's corner and...well yeah I mean nobody knows a fighter like their trainer. He knows every single one of his fighter's weaknesses, even the ones that haven't shown up on film yet. And the fact that he is now in the gym with Floyd...
This is bigger news then Oscar getting Roach imo.
Haha, you haven't seen Oscar's straight right hand, have you?Originally Posted by Lords Gym
? I agree it's not his strongest weapon but it's not it's bad. It's not like he slaps with it or anything.Originally Posted by albsur2006
Haha, it's kind of hard to slap with a straight punch.Originally Posted by amat
For a championship level fighter like Oscar, you'd think that he'd have a better straight right hand. With the type of jab that Oscar has, it's almost inexcusable that his right hand isn't as developed as it should be. He's honestly relied on his left hook for much too long. Oscar has a dynamite jab, could you imagine if he developed a straight right hand to put behind his jab? Oscar would have been a much better fighter. Hopefully he's working on it for May 5, he'll need it. Floyd's straight right makes Oscar's look like garbage.
Oscar won't see FloydsOriginally Posted by albsur2006
Any edge, psychological edge, knowledge advantage he had is now gone. Having Senior, Floyd will learn all of Oscar's obscure exploits. Getting rid of him wasn't the wisest thing to do, because Floyd Sr. knows many of the nicks and crannies to Floyd Jr's.(better you knowing his flaws than him yours) Him and Roach better get to work because they have big challenge on their hands.
REUNITED and it feels so goooooooood.......... first cat to post who the artist of that classic jam is gets a cool click in honor of daddy and son mayweather![]()
Peaches and Herb?
Plenty of fighers slap with straight punches. Hell Tommy Hearns slapped with his right hand for the longest time until about 15 fights into his pro career. And they loop with it to. Oscar does neither. Floyd has one of the better straights in all of boxing and he also relies on it a lot more then Floyd. I wouldn't call his straight right garbage just because he doesn't use it much.Originally Posted by albsur2006

Im sure he's put a few people to sleep with rights here and there...but they weren't Floyd Mayweather.
