    Manny been uploading videos of his workouts on Instagram and twitter

    30 second clips

    Very Good quality


    I think it'll be a great fight

    Floyd's gonna be on the ropes sometimes and hopefully Mannys in and out , side to side movement can prove to make manny too elusive to get countered

    But obviously it's gonna be a close fight

    Super super close IMO

    And I think manny gets edge from incompetent judges who will be swayed by crowd, guy coming forward and higher punch volume

      I watched bits and pieces of first maidana fight again

      The later rounds were not as close as I originally thought
      Floyd seemed to get used to maidanas awkward punches and he had more in gas tank

      Proved to be very difficult to hit

      I dunno why roach is saying Floyd's legs are gone. I think he's slowed down to a lesser extent than he thinks

      Because look at the Oscar fight. Floyd was on the ropes in first half of fight.
      Same with the second maidana fight. Maidana didn't pin Floyd on the ropes like he did in first half.

      Floyd paces himself . And hopes you make more mistakes when you're tired

      And if he thinks the fight is close, he will step it up. I see same happening in this fight

      Also , since this post is pro- Floyd and I don't wanna make a habit of more pro-Floyd posts I'll mention one last pro-Floyd thing- his 2 close fights- maidana and Castillo- he was going into those bouts with injuries- a torn rotator cuff vs jlc and a damaged right hand vs el chino

        Floyd does like to wait and let his opponents upload and let off some steam first before floyd starts going to work but the thing is manny's quickness and angles will allow him to sneak in shots that floyds recent opppoents couldnt.

        So I can't see floyd potshotting pac or going to the ropes to let manny unload. Floyd is either gonna have to fight manny or be on the move.

              They're probably reporting last week's news.

                I guarantee you become an alt after May 3rd. I am positive of that.

                I believe that Floyd's ring IQ is what sets him apart from the rest. Zab talking about Floyd like he actually can read your mind is too true.

                  that's because Zab probably starts thinking out loud when he starts getting his ass kicked in sparring


                  "...like he could read ya mind yo"

                    Ring IQ = outfoxing slower flat footed opponents.

                      Nah its today's update.

                      Manny is skipping his morning running session because of the cramps. Fortune says he will find ways to make up for it later in the day.
