    Floyd would probably argue they are A level against normal opponents but it is he that makes them C level.

    Floyd makes great fighters look C-level because Floyd is the greatest of all.

    Or he is just handpicking C level fighters to protect his 0.

    My explanation is closer to the truth.

    IT's not very difficult; he's overtalking so the heat is directed toward him and not Manny. Which is pretty pretty smart actually. While they talk about him, Manny can focus quietly. Roach has been in the business since the dawn of dawns, he knows how it goes and what pressure is. He's just playing his violins accordingly.

    True, he may as well throw as much shit as he can think of out there. I'm sure he's even under pressure to do so, Manny doesn't promote himself whatsoever after all. I don't think it affects a fighters standing much what is said before a fight either, only what happens in the ring. I'd like Floyd more if he'd stuck to his guns and kept calling everyone a C+ heavy bag or whatever, everyone know's he's a dick anyways and that's more entertaining than thanking jesus for a victory over a great competitor or whatever boring crap he spews.

    I heard him on some interview Monday (?) where he went on about Manny has real dislike for Mayweather because he is without morals or some shit. Repeated 'he is not a good person' about 20 times.

    Floyd should start coming to press conferences wearing horns and cloven hoof shoes. Or better yet enter the ring that way.

    Anyway Roach should really consider shutting his pie-hole. He's a media whore that probably causes as many problems and distractions for his fighter as anything else.

    And some of the stupid shit he says like "we dare Floyd to throw his favourite punch" is borderline retarded.
