That's pretty dope
they couldn't get credentialed for yesterday's press conference, and terence crawford's manager hooked them up w/ a credential pass also
i'd rather see them grow their brand than guys like Elie Sechback (not saying Elie doesn't put in work)

Episode 3 of the Floyd-Pac Showtime special was pretty telling. Despite telling numerous reporters that this is just a regular fight Floyd has not been training like it. Old regiments like chopping wood, new regiments like swimming. Canceling pre fight celebration etc. I was alarmed he's still sparring fight week but u never know what to believe with Floyd produced Showtime episodes. What he said about he's damned eithee way being ****y or humble was poignant. He's figured out that he will NEVER please everybody but you see it bothers him somewhat. He can put up the facade that he doesn't care what people think or care about him but if he was honest with us and himself he would admit that the criticism wears on him. He's said it a few times that boxing is no longer enjoyable, he can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Perhaps it is a detriment to him perhaps it is bringing a laser precise focus on the task at hand. Come May 2nd we will all see. It is EXTREMELY rare for a fighter or any athlete to script the end of their career. Age and injuries and younger replacements usually do it for an athlete. Perhaps even rarer is an athlete leaving at or near the top of his game & sport. It will be interesting to see how 2015 plays out in the Mayweather narrative.

I just hope they test him right after the weigh-in.
Can't take any chances on this stage.
