I don't belive that Floyd thought this, he was very very vocal and disparaging about Roach in the build up and practically put his entire rep on the line for this one fight. They had one camp together and ricky did look a little better against Paulie as opposed to Lazcano, so they hired him again, but I'm sure there seems to be something going on between Beard and Mayweather, and probably why things got weirder as the fight got closer.
