By Brendan Taylor: Trainer Floyd Mayweather Sr. has never been short for words throughout the course of his life in boxing, Wednesday afternoon was no different. I got a chance to talk to him at the media workouts for Mickey Bey (22-1-1, 10 KO’s) and IBF lightweight champion Rances Barthelemy (24-0, 13 KO’s) for thier fight tonight at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino, in Hollywood, Florida. He spoke very glowingly of his fighter Mickey Bey who’s coming in on a 4-fight win streak since his TKO loss to John Molina in 2013.
“Mickey Bey is faster, slicker, more clever and hits harder, you will see that” said the senior version of Floyd Mayweather. There’s no doubt that this is the biggest fight for Bey since 2013, he comes into this bout in the latter stages of his career against a younger, undefeated champion in Barthelemy.
By Chris Williams: Floyd Mayweather Sr. thinks that Manny Pacquiao (57-6-2, 38 KOs) selected Tim Bradley (33-1-1, 13 KOs) to fight in his next fight on April 9th because he’s the only one of the three candidates that his promoter Bob Arum picked out that he can beat. Arum asked Pacquiao to pick from the following three candidates: Terence Crawford, Tim Bradley and Amir Khan.

By Dan Ambrose: In what could be a battle between aging trainers, Floyd Mayweather Sr. says he absolutely wants to fight Ruben Guerrero, the trainer/dad of recent Floyd Jr. victim Robert “The Ghost” Guerrero, in a boxing match so that he can knock him out and shut his mouth. Earlier this week, Ruben Guerrero got in Mayweather Sr’s face and dared him to punch him while the two were at a restaurant.
By Dan Ambrose: Floyd Mayweather Sr. and trainer Ruben Guerrero almost went toe-to-toe last night in a restaurant in Las Vegas, Nevada, and they both had to be pulled apart. Ruben, the father of the recently defeated Robert “The Ghost’ Guerrero, got in Mayweather Sr’s face and invited him to hit him. Mayweather Sr., who was a good fighter during his career, choose not to nail Ruben with a shot. However, the two trainers then exchanged shoves before they were broken apart.
By Chris Williams: Floyd Mayweather Sr. thinks they’ve found an opponent that Manny Pacquiao (54-5-2, 38 KO’s) can finally beat at this point in his career in Brandon Rios (31-1-1, 23 KO’s), a fighter that belongs with the same Top Rank stable as Pacquiao. Mayweather Sr. sees Rios as just too slow for Pacquiao, and because of that he sees Pacquiao winning the fight. But Mayweather Sr. still sees this as being a difficult fight for Pacquiao due to Rios’ toughness and Pacquiao’s last of technical skills. 
By Samuel Roy Junior: Unbeaten Floyd Mayweather Jr. (44-0, 26 KO’s) pocketed a cool $32 million for the Robert Guerrero (31-2-1, 18 KO’s) fight last Saturday night. That’s some amount, considering a large number of people out there that probably would of preferred to see him face a different opponent. 
By Scott Gilfoid: Super middleweight Andre Dirrell (20-1, 14 KO’s), who should be unbeaten still given his controversial loss to Carl Froch, is no longer training with Floyd Mayweather Sr. It seems they’ve decided to go in different directions for some unknown reason. 
By Chris Williams: Trainer Floyd Mayweather Sr. doesn’t think Manny Pacquiao will ever be the same fighter he once was after he was knocked out by Juan Manuel Marquez earlier this month in a one-punch knockout loss that knocked Pacquiao unconscious for close to 2 minutes. Needless to say, any fighter gets knocked clean out like Pacquiao was has a chance of suffering additional knockouts in future bouts. 
By Chris Williams: It seems like Manny Pacquiao may have been with the wrong trainer all these years he’s been with Freddie Roach. Oscar De La Hoya of Golden Boy Promotions swears by Floyd Mayweather Sr. and sees him as the best trainer in boxing bar none, and I think he may be right. After all, Mayweather Sr. is the one that worked with his son Mayweather Jr. in the beginning stages of his boxing education. You have to wonder if Mayweather Sr. could have saved Pacquiao from getting knocked out last Saturday night had he been his trainer instead of Roach.
