Floyd's uncle and trainer, Roger Mayweather, was not able to train him for this fight or work his corner. Roger was serving six months in jail for a battery conviction and was under suspension by Nevada officials for setting off a brawl during Floyd's fight against Zab Judah seven months earlier. Longtime assistant trainer and adviser Leonard Ellerbe took over in the corner. Mayweather was a 4-1 favorite. Dan Rafael of ESPN.com reported: "The fight was not competitive for a single moment as Mayweather overwhelmed the plodding Baldomir with his speed." Rafael scored the fight 120-108 in favor of Mayweather.
