Mayweather: "Everybody else has been impressed...I think I can do better"(Interview)

[The Big Dunn]

Floyd lost the first 3 rounds, maybe the first 4, was also KD but not called by the ref.

Khan on the other hand dominated Judah from start to finished and made him not want to fight anymore, and stopped him in 5.

The time between fights is so long that it really is impossible to compare the performance of zab. Thats the logic HAtton used when calling out floyd, I beat CAstillo better then floyd did. Didn't work out too well.

Two good wins. Mabuza most agree, was a fight he was losing (i thought it was close for zab) before the ko. The Mathysse fight most believe he lost. I don't know if that is good wins but 140 is a better weight for him.

Just too much time between fights to judge.

Floyd - Zab was more offensive minded and minus a couple beatdowns (cotto, Clottey) and he was 28.

Khan - Zab Judah should have loss vs Matthysse and beat a one dimensional brawler. He is 33 and well past his prime. He fought in a defensive matter in which he barely threw punches.

Floyd and Ishe had a full-on sparring session on THURSDAY before the Mosley fight.

Sparring the day before the weigh-in...dude's crazy.

On July 16, former Contender star Ishe Smith will step into the ring to face fast-rising undefeated middleweight contender Fernando Guerrero in what very well could be his final chance to get his career back on track. “I’m very confident for this fight. I’m very confident of what I see from myself in the gym. Sparring with Mayweather has really rejuvenated me and put my dedication and focus back into the sport I love,” Smith would comment in a recent interview with FightHype’s Percy Crawford, realizing the importance of this fight and the impact it will have on the remainder of his career. Having worked as a chief sparring partner for Floyd Mayweather, Smith believes that the time he spent in Floyd’s camp for the Shane Mosley bout opened his eyes to what it will take to rejuvenate his career.

“For a long time, I had got frustrated with the sport because I wasn’t able to get the fights, like you mentioned earlier, and I had a bunch of fights falling out. This is how I feed my kids, so I had got really frustrated with it for awhile,” Smith reflected, as he candidly spoke about his frutrations with the sport. “When I went and sparred with Floyd, it rejuvenated me and took me up a level and I thank God that we got to put some work in. He was a very gracious guy and he appreciated me being in camp and I definitely appreciated him because it revived me as a person.”

Working with Mayweather has renewed Smith’s confidence that he can compete with the elite fighters in the sport. “A lot of his workout regimen, and seeing how he works, rubbed off on me,” he added. “I’m totally dedicated back to the sport and I owe a lot of that to Floyd and God for making me realize how important this sport is to me and how much I love it.” This Friday, Smith and the rest of the world will find it exactly how much his time working with Floyd Mayweather has truly rubbed off on him. Although he’s only had 18 fights, Fernando Guerrero (18-0, 15 KOs) is one tough customer and he’ll be looking to make a statement against Smith when they headline the main event of a tripleheader telecast on ShoBox: The New Generation.

people get so wrapped in in floyds "money may" MEDIA personailty, they have no know what the guy is truly like.

this was an awesome read.

2 weeks ago he was calling Khan out. Now that Khan has demolished a guyy that slapped Mayweather around a bit, he's pretending to not know what Khans name is and downplaying the fight. Floyd is so predictable with his ducking, dodging, and cowardice.

can someone show me where zab slapped floyd around? did he land some good shots? yes but whats the big deal its a boxing match and in those u get hit!!!! it wasnt like zab was some push over in those days he was pretty good and hella fast. khan beat a wack version of zab, zab has not looked good in a looooooooooooooooooong time buddy give it a break! khan is a beast also but get real!

[Mr. Philadel]

They're definitely good sparring partners, but it sounds like you've been overpaying for mid-grade.

...so what you sayin?!?...they're more like some kush or what?!? lol

....................bump

[V.WEBB]

Floyd is probably around the 160lbs mark.

Lets hope Floyd's confidence spills over in the Pacquiao negoatiations.

Can't let it go, huh? Such a troll...over nothing.

Freakin hyped for this fight.
