    Its a good hit out in training , a bit different than the same ol thing with some beneficial stresses , a good workout and a mental freshen up , Ortiz will be in the best shape of his life with everything to gain and nothing to lose , these are dangerous fights because they are so hungry with nothing to lose because everybody writes them off , Mayweather does that to everybody he fights thats why he is such a gym rat himself , if ever takes his opponent for grated and dont put in the work 100% its the beginning of the end .

        lol exactly man, I can already see some of these obese posters here talking ish about Victor while they're beer guts are sticking out and their keyboards are covered in nacho sauce.


        Ortiz is a bad dude, he's a man of many interest, I like to hear he has other hobbies besides boxing. I did a triathlon a year ago and it was killer I don't care how in shape you are.

              It is very impressive specially considering Victor trains for boxing, not for triathlons. Floyd wont like this notice.

                Examiner: How sharp was Floyd in training camp? Were you confident in his victory over Shane?

                Ishe Smith: I was. I knew that if it went past five or six rounds that he would win. He is a beast when he trains, his training regime is just unreal, the way he trains and the stuff he does in there is something I’ve never seen before in my life, the stuff he does when he trains is amazing. I was confident, but I was also thinking Shane has that big right hand and that if he was to get caught that it would be earlier and I was telling everybody that if it goes past six rounds that Shane would lose and maybe even get beat up pretty bad and my prediction was right because I didn’t think it would be the third or fourth round on I just thought if it goes past six that he would beat Shane up pretty bad because Mayweather doesn’t get tired I’ve never seen him tired in the gym and I’ve seen the guy work out literally two and a half hours, three hours straight with only taking sips of water and I’ve never seen him get tired. When he spars he goes five six minute eight minute rounds and when they call time he only goes to the corner, drinks a sip of water, and he’s back at sparring. He doesn’t take minutes and all that kind of stuff. Even when he hits the bag and stuff he doesn’t take minutes off and I’ve never seen him get tired before in the gym or even during that camp. He was never huffing or puffing or breathing for air. I knew with Shane’s history getting tired down the stretch that he wouldn’t be able to do anything after six rounds.


                Examiner: Is Mayweather always trying different things and throwing combos or does he do the same stuff he does in the ring?


                Ishe Smith: He is like a good chess player. He does whatever seems fit for him to do. Meaning like if you are playing chess if you just come out reckless he is going to take advantage of you, but if you come out more subtle, more reserved then he is going to be a little more reserved. His IQ of boxing is like ten times more than like a Shane, more than a De La Hoya, more than a Pacquiao.His IQ of what you are going to do before you do it is unbelievable. He adjusts.

                  That is nice but a boxer performing so good in a triathlon is something else.
