I like how natural Floyd is here, or how willing to talk about the fight game and truly measuring opponents, compared to the usual stock ramblings. Smith brought out the best in him for the interview.
Co-sign. Plus, Floyd can be a menacing too, I've never seen that side of him. That's the first time I ever watched/listened to Floyd and thought, 'dude could lay hands on me'. Floyd and Smitty seem to have a natural chemistry that allows their chat's to flow freely. Floyd doesn't 'stick to the script' in this interview or have to compete with a combative interviewer. This was a good interview and also insightful. I have this feeling that JMM might get slaughtered this Saturday.
1) Mayweather has been out two years; JMM is sharp & active
2) I don't think the five pound weight difference is really substantial
3) Betting the favourite has a small payoff.
