Comments Thread For: Mayweather: I'm Not Going Crazy, This is Just A Fight

He's certainly got the right mindset. On the flipside I think Manny and Freddie are obviously taking this more seriously than anything they've ever done.

A lot of questions are going to be answered soon. The biggest one for me is who has the superior hand speed. I can't wait to actually see what this looks like.

i thought no one would say this.

he chopped woods that he never did before because it's merely just a fight, nothing special

he swam, never did before because it's merely just a fight, nothing special

have some cryo oxygen treatment or something but it is just a fight nothing special

he hires more than 10 sparring partners because it's merely just a fight, nothing special

hires strength and conditioning coach but it's just a fight, nothing special

Floyd is clearly rattled. Why do you think he's pulling all stops in this fight?

Floyd going to beat pac ass cant wait

Floyd going to beat pac ass cant wait

You're a fanboy. Okay, so just like Floyd beat Maidana's ass? Hahaha! Floyd has pillow in his gloves, man. He's going to do what he always does, TRY AND POT SHOT HIS WAY TO A SAFE DECISION. He is not about that life and you cannot make him be.

For Floyd to dominate this fight the way his loyal fans expect him to, he will have to fight with a tremendous amount of intensity, energy and even fury. He will not dispatch of Pacquiao or dominate him with a clinical approach and or just beat him because of his skills.

Pacquiao will fight with great intensity and Floyd will have to bring a commensurate amount to blow him away with the ease his fans expect. Floyd is already saying he is not going to bring that intensity by his pre-fight demeanor and in his interviews. He did not really want this fight and he is not emotionally psyched about fighting.

He isn't even saying he will try for the KO, which he has done before all of his other fights. And when those fights transpired, He never really did go too hard for the KO.
Floyd is going to fight defensively and then hope he gets a decision. If he doesn't, which I don't expect him to, he'll have a lot of complaining to do, saying the Man never wanted him to retire undefeated.

Right. You've got a Pacquiao fan in here typing in Comic Sans, size 90, fucking purple font.......and Floyd fans are annoying.

And if he does so what? It won't be a big deal nor will he have been the first to beat Pacquiao. He had the opportunity to do so years ago but chose to duck and dodge. If he wins he will get no credit from me at all.

look at this excuse!!

ever seen pacquiao on his backfoot against skill? he's about to get dominated and he'll the throwing those little garry russell jr hooks trying to look impressive and like he's fighting hard...it wont work

[Real Talk85]

Floyds mental toughness is insane.

[AllBoxingAD]

Floyd is talking about his mental approach.

Not about his preparation. Of course he trained as hard as he could. Of course he knows whats at stake. Of course he knows how great Pac really is.

But he can come into the fight thinking: OMG OMG OMG THIS IS THE BIGGEST FIGHT EVA!!!

Or he come in thinking: IVE BEEN DOING THIS MY WHOLE LIFE, I WAS BORN READY, LETS DO WHAT WE DO MAN.

I know what I would chose.
