In the video that Gino Ros posted, Floyd said that he was going to spar 10 rounds today like he did yesterday. His rounds have been 8-9 minutes and he's running uphill 45 minutes on a treadmill. That is insanity.Comment

I remember Stevie Forbes doing an interview before the DLH fight, I think it was so don't quote me, but he said the night before the fight, Mayweather had him and Ishe Smith in the gym sparring...
The night before the fight.Comment

This is the same pad work mayweather has been doing his whole career!!! It's all repitition!!! He should be good at it by now as long as he's been doing it. It's nothing new, it's always the exact same.Comment

It's meant for counter-punching. When I saw for the first time, I thought it was choreography as well... then I ordered mastering the mitts and Roger actually breaks it down slowly, although it's really not that slow at all.The only cautionary note I would sound, from a non-Floyd fan, is that the pad work with Uncle Roger is beautiful choreography and nobody does that better. But it is like a dance routine that two partners have performed a 1,000 times. Uncle Roger knows his movements and does his best to make his nephew look great.
In a real fight the opponent is attacking and not holding mitts and respecting Floyd. Not moving in a well-rehearsed way. In the real fights, Floyd throws one or two or at the most three punches before returning to defense. His punches are not as free-flowing as pad work.
I don't question if Floyd still has good reflexes or boxing skills. I wonder whether after the fight gets into middle rounds and it becomes rough and Floyd isn't doing all the punching, but also doing some of the taking, will he show signs of slippage and age then?
He doesn't give away all the tricks in the breakdown though because I've noticed that he incorporates different movements and technical aspects with Jr.
Anyway, it's not choreographed and it's certainly not for show or to look cool. You should actually try it some time, then you'll understand.Comment

Okay I was thinking Ortiz had a chance because Floyd was looking rusty in earlier training vids.
But know I'm starting to think Ortiz might get KTFO. Mayweather actually was hitting the pads hard in this vid something he doesn't usually do. He usually just focuses on speed. But now I get the sense that he's added a little power.Comment
