Comments Thread For: Mosley Warning: Mayweather Better Take Cotto Seriously

[WESS]

Love Floyd, but his first loss comes May 5th via 8 round KO from a body shot. Call me all the names you want, but Cotto KO win is VERY VERY likely at 154. Not going to argue....this is what im picking

Pac would probably agree which is why 145 Cotto is ok but 154 is not for the pac.

May 5th is when you will see why Bob Arum didn't even want Cotto to fight Mayweather years ago. You will also see why people say Cotto will get Gatti'ed..

However I agree 100% with the body shots. I'm looking forward to seeing Floyd take some serious damage to the body. We know he has a VERY solid chin, now I want to know how the body will handle Cotto's body shots assuming Cotto can actually land them.

No way does Floyd ever KO Cotto, but I can see a stoppage.

Cool, I had to learn as well. If you stick around maybe we can try it again down the line on another fight where we are going for different boxers.

Jogging

“How far I run each day varies,” says Mayweather. “And sometimes if I’ve sparred more rounds than usual on one particular day, won’t run at all. But when do hit the road, I’ll do anything between five and eight-and-a-half miles going fast."



Sit-up punches

This is where his trainer holds his legs and then he stands up out of a sit-up position, throws two uppercuts then returns back down. Go for as many as possible. Inevitably give up after three.



Skipping

A lung-hurting exercise that also helps a fighter's coordination as he rhythmically works out where his feet land as the rope swings at high speed. Mayweather will sometimes skip up to 20 minutes straight, often as a warming-up exercise.


Neck Harness

An exercise that's unique to boxing. The fighter lies on the canvas of a ring with his head pointing over it and a neck harness attacked round his head. This has chains linking it to a weight - putting a strain on his neck muscles. Mayweather will just move his head up and down so that his neck doesn't snap back on a fight night.


2/ Technique


Sparring

"I spar between eight and ten rounds every day to work on my technique and certain punches I'm going to use to expose the boxer I'm fighting. I'm working on my uppercut because I've noticed Marquesz has been dropped a few times with that punch."



Shadowboxing

Footwork - that is the elegance with which a fighter moves round the ring to position himslef to throw punches - is a great fighter's main weapon. Mayweather's footwork is a second to none. And shadowboxing is where he hones it.



Pads

The speed at which Mayweather throws punches while his trainer holds the padded mitts is remarkable, often ducking under his trainer's hands. "I'll do 30 minutes of padwork straight," says Mayweather, "with no break at all."


Punch bags

"I heard straight for the heaviest bag in my gym that really pushes my body as I hit it and then don't stop for another 20 minutes. I'm looking to not only go into that fight looking to win, I also want to be viewed by others as the best at my sport."




Yep, Pacquiao trains harder.

Cool. THX dude

Thats BS he trains hard but so do many other champions, he is simply highly talented and has been cherry picking based on the best/least riskiest economic matchups he could get.

Dude please you have lost your mind.. There are few fighter the gain the recognition of "Gym Rat" these fighter live eat sleep in the gym. Most notable champion to hold this title was The Marvelous One, even when not heading into a fight would be in the gym. Hopkins is another fighter that caries the name of Gym Rat as well as Floyd. These fighter live like monks in the gym, they never struggle to make weight, they are always in shape, and stay close to their fighting weight even during long period out of the ring ..

Can you say any of that **** about Cotto, or any other fighter to date?!?! So please miss us with this cherry picking **** and give credit where credit is due.

You want to put some real $$$ on that?

[leonthegee]

Manny Pacquiao train's harder, his regime is much tougher.

No he doesnt. Why do you think Manny moved his camp to LA? Because Freddy couldnt keep his as$ out of the pool hall.

WOW!! pathetic and futile

[WESS]

Who trains harder?

Have you got Floyd's training regime?

Pacquiao does 10k hill runs at 7.20 something miles.

What does Floyd do apart from play pat-a-cake with Uncle Roger and play skipping games.

Only play pat-a-cake with Uncle Roger, skipping and running.

Have you got some insight into what his regime is, if so post it.

I never said Floyd doesn't train well or he doesn't train as hard as possible, I'm just saying he is 2nd best to Pacquiao.

Well he was training 6-7 hours a day, had to pick his kids up from school, go to congress, go on chat shows, practice with his band and everything else.

You need rest otherwise the training can damage you.

The fact that Pacquiao burns so many calories tell you the work he puts in.

I take it Floyd keeps his training regime under wraps. Anyone have any insight in what Floyd does in the gym?

You don't even know what Floyd's regimen is yet you are arguing that Pac's is better?

FAIL.
