    For me Mayweather Snr is the better trainer, and I think it shows in the difference he's made to fighters he's had under him- at all different stages in their respective careers- opinions?
    Personally, I think quite the opposite, Roach is unpaired when it comes to games plan and he did quite wonders with everybody that got under his guidance, plus his teacher, the legendary Eddie Futch is probably among the top 3 of all times. Mayweather is a very good teacher though but he never shaped as many world champions as Roach and he's often mostly talk, when he says for example "PAcquiao has no head movement" and such, it's obvious that it ain't the case, just a look at Pacquiao against JMM or DLH and you can see that he looks like a booble head. Also, not only does he had a better teacher, more world's champion under his belt but Roach has been inducted 3 times if my memory as trainer of the year, which is remarquable considering he's not a trainer for that long. Another thing: in the corner, I prefer Roach's style of giving advices and using his minute wisely instead of the Mayweather strange advices and speech like: "yeahhhhh mannnnnnn commmme onnnn mannnn, ya knoowww yaaa mann, give it more try mannn, work more, ya know what I'm sayiinnn" kind of riddles Don't get me wrong, Mayweather is a very good teacher but Roach has a lot more under his belt to back the talk.
