    His conditioning may be a little deceiving. He has a very low punch output but makes up for it with a high percentage of punches landing and doesn't take too much damage in fights so doesn't get so tired. If/when he ages, reflexes slow down, becomes less accurate he will need to throw more punches to make up for it. Probably will get hit more becoming more fatigued.

    I don't think Floyd has the best stamina, he couldn't throw a 80-100 punches a round like some fighters. But because of his awkward style he really doesn't need to.

    Floyd's conditioning is good enough for his style of fighting though. He don't need to be benching crazy weights or competing in triathlons when he has his boxing talent. Fights are not won and lost depending on how much you can squat.
    You really should tweet that pic to Khan that would be a ATG tweet!!!!

      Leonard Ellerbe is a former body builder, I think he knows what he's doing.

        Back in the day that is all we saw. Guys that would pound the bags, spar, run, sit-ups and do lots of jump rope. Basically it was hard work that got them there. They also fought in their own weight class or above it.

        Today it is all about guys trying to fight in the lowest weight class possible. Starving themselves, weight and conditioning coaches etc.

        Back then dudes ran out of steam generally by their early to mid 30's. Hard work does take a toll on a body eventually. Floyd is getting near that mark now. He is slowing down some, but he fights infrequently enough that he might get a couple more years in the game.

            so you actually believe that the small amount of training and footage we see on 24/7 and youtube hi-lites is it? you have to be smarter than this and that whole junk food crap is misleading...

                now this is what i call thinking!!!!!!!!!! good post!

                  Every other boxer seems to have a fancy strength trainer and nutritionist but Floyd eats junk food and does his own circuit routines.

                  Are strength/conditioner/nutritionists overrated? Does plain hardwork and old school training trump all?
                  He' does have a guy who gives him HGH/ Roids though

                    Thanks, there is a guy on here who actually sent me a message that basically said "you people need to get over it" of course after reading it I didn't respond but used my favorite tool on this site and put that clown on ignore.
