By Chris Williams: Trainer Freddie Roach has his opinions why WBC welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. has decided to go with IBF welterweight champion Devon Alexander instead of Robert Guerrero, the fighter that most boxing fans thought Mayweather was set to fight until recently.
Roach said to ibftimes.co.uk when asked why Mayweather was leaning in the direction of Alexander now, “He [Guerrero] wanted $4million and Floyd said he would get $2.5m but he didn’t want to take it. He didn’t want it so Floyd moved on to the next person and he still might move onto someone else.”

By Dean Gsell: Boxing survives for a few reasons, currently money comes in at number, and one is funded by human thirst to see a good fight. True fans don’t just see good fights, they feel them.

By Allan Fox: Trainer Freddie Roach thinks former WBC middleweight champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. (46-1-1, 32 KO’s) is a huge waste of talent for his lack of dedication for the sport.
