Comments Thread For: Video: Mayweather Displays Speed, Power in The Gym

[- Ram Raid -]

Anyone else not impressed with floyd in this video? Looks like a normal guy doing regular work

I'd second that.

He looks pretty much like what he is. A 38 year old man on the wane who's lookin to cash out with a penultimate hustle. Not that I say that as an indication of how I think the fight will go. After all, he's fighting a man whose promoter has cleverly worked him back into a position to make this fight after a deverstating knockout.

I take the point mentioned on board about it being a media workout though. . . Still. If you didn't know that was Floyd 'Money' Mayweather there's nothing to impress.

I hope he shows something better in the fight. I want to get my money's worth.

Not impressed looked weak and fragile

[Cracaphat]

What was that? A pitter patter exhibition? He never shows himself sparring to prevent things getting out.Got bored after a minute.The only thing that stood out was TBE punching bag.But even it looked bored lol.

Speed and power is this the joke of the day ? has anyone notice Mayweather always hits like that with mitts or bag, Why ? Oh I get it he only injects Xylocaine on sparring and fight night

[Don Mac]

One weird thing though he didn't seem to have that same rhythm him and roger had on the mitts.

I noticed that too. Father time finally caught up?

You people seriously think he going show everything during a media workout? Some of yall have peanut brains expect manny to show same thing today no point in going hard showing what you going be doing so other team can pick up on it. He was ripping the lower part of bag to shreds heard the thudding of those shots

actually no. manny and roach will be going balls out LOL. thats one thing with roach. media day work out to roach is something to show case the work that they've been putting in the gym.

as compare to floyd, a media day work out is just any other day, nothing special, which i kinda agree. no need to go balls out but then at the same time u want to show a little something to get the people talking.

hmm...

He looked faster, stronger, bigger and sharper than I've ever seen him before. Damn!

a 20 year, undefeated, championship career proves otherwise


I don't know why so many fans think that training sessions are supposed to show everything a fighter has to offer. It always going to be different in the gym than in the ring. Tyson looking impressive in training doesn't necessarily mean he looks impressive in the ring.

I thought he looked good, same as he has for the past several fights...but we've been seeing this for many many years that the effect wears off.

It's not about "looking" impressive for internet warriors, but simply preparing. Conditioning, muscle memory, etc.

It's like commenting on what good does it do Manny to just punch air as fast as he can with his hands low. That doesn't mean that is how he will actually fight. It's all preparation.
