Floyd. The only fighter on the planet that could fight w/o a trainer. Got any quotes from Castillo/Floyd 1?

I totally disagree.

As completely ironic as it sounds, Floyd has already been quoted as being grateful for the cohesive boxing insight that he and his uncle & father share.

I can't remember what fight it was (might of been the Mosley fight?) but Mayweather had again said something like ''I could hear My Uncle giving me advice, I turned to my Father and he was giving me the exact same advice. I have a great team.''

I was partly joking and partly serious. If their is a fighter today that could get by w/o a trainer its Floyd. In a Barry Sanders never needed an offensive line coach, Jordan never needed someone to bounce the ball for him and Gretzky never needed Sather to show him how to handle a puck kinda way.

.... rodger and floyd do what most fighters should. Most of the work is already done before the ringwalk. Floyd does need rodger....just not to coach him on things he's already taken care of in camp. On the flip side most fighters are in there without a trainer for what it's worth. I've heard guys like berto's trainer this past sat, b mcgirt, even judah's dad and teddy altlas give great advice in the corner that mid-as-well have gone right into a brick wall for as much as they listen. nacho is the same a rodger. Listen to him coach marquez against floyd. First he let's him drink pee pee then in the ring with all the advice dude could have used he tells him "Be lively, move, he's hitting you too much plus other worthless garbage yet he's supposidly this great trainer. Same with nazim against floyd, he gave great advice and shane went out and did the same crap he did the round before. Bottom line don't let your hate of floyd cloud you judgement, rodger is no worse or better than the rest of them depending on how you look at it. It's the fighters who take or leave the advice, by the time they roll in the ring the cut and water guy are probably more important the night of. But i've never boxed so maybe i don't know anything.

I think Roy Jones Jr on his day didn't needa trainer, but I think there comes points in time where any fighter would need help.

Just watched the fight....brilliant fight. I hope Ortiz keeps this winning attitude, he was a warrior in there. Berto seemed flat from the get go, like he was just going to walk through Ortiz.

As for Berto's corner...the trainer told Andre nothing, Andre's brother was awful...he wouldn't shut up and he gave bad advice "just pump the jab"...vs a southpaw?!?!? HELLOOO!!! Meanwhile Ortiz's corner was on the mark "I told you we don't want to throw that 1 punch by itself...follow up" great advice and bar some defensive lapses Ortiz fought a perfect fight.

[IamInuit]

Not a peep on direction. Boxing 101. Next time just pay the janitor 100 bucks to pose as a trainer.

EASILY! Great great match, I think a rematch would be as good maybe even better! Both Ortiz and Berto landed with great power and frequency and I was AMAZED that Ortiz got up from that knockdown in the 6th. That is exactly what people want to see out of the heavyweights!

Glad we agree on something.

A lot of posters on here do not agree it was fight of the year since the fight kind stagnated after the 6th. But I fell that it was a truely exciting and compelling fight to watch LIVE and easily fight of the year.

Yes and David Haye is gonna give it to them !
