Sad thing is now I'm only going by the clips I've seen but Vic looks to only be training for strength and punching power, I don't think he's trying to improve technically, the strategy I see is basically trying to overwhelm Floyd, there will be no plan b...
Similar to Shane's comments, "I'm just as fast", "im stronger", "i punch harder", but none of that **** played out and surprise there was no plan b...Ortiz saying things like "i don't see nothing special", "he's not that great", "he doesn't belong in the same ring with me"...
Sounds like over-confidence & under-estimating a proven p4p great, sounds like a recipe for destruction to me and by the way, Ortiz looked slow as hell on the speed bag...Comment

He walks around at near welterweight limit, how does he have a bad diet? His sleep schedule is the same, not everyone is going to have the same circadian rhythm, and there are studies that show this as well.
Everything else I'd agree with.Comment

i'm actually not all that impressed with floyd's training. there's no doubt it's effective, but he does the same things over and over and over......and then does them some more later in the day. he doesn't absolutely nothing to challenge his normal movements or improve power and explosiveness. which is why he has none. i get what his game plan is and has always been - he's going to rely on accuracy and quickness and let whatever power he has in his punches add up over the course of several rounds. there's no shame in that and it's obviously worked well for him. but i'm still of the opinion that maximal training involves much more strenuous physical explosion than the trademark mayweather "pattycake" routine.Comment
