Comments Thread For: Video: Floyd Mayweather Toys With Sparring Partners

He is already training to run for the whole fight. Still Mayweather will win an easy UD, old or not.

Of course you have to be in there with a great boxer like him to speak, but don't know why when he is using the shoulder roll, his opponents / sparring partners try to land the left hooks (head and body), he is almost always open for the right hand, and his right hand always covers left hooks and jabs.

Floyd looked sluggish in this video but this was only the second half of the entire session and his second sparring partner. If watch the full session you'll see that this video starts when Floyd was already twenty minutes into sparring which probably explains why he looks so sluggish. His conditioning is still top notch considering the fact that he outlasted both guys who were sparring with him. Both guys were gassed by the time the session was through.

He got hit by right hands in the video more than once actually, I've noticed he's been getting hit with this punch more often lately especialy when he's on the ropes, he just tries to roll the shoulder while standing too square, in the past he used to put his left shoulder in his opponent's chest and get too close to his opponent to smother his shots, now he lays on the ropes which gives the opponent the perfect distance to shoot the right hand down the pipe or to throw an overhand right, and now he relies on reflexes to get out of the way which is something that I don't like.

I think most of the tactics he used on the inside back in the day have deteriorated and since he started training with his dad he became exclusively an outside fighter, back in the day he used to roll and counter and dig beautiful head and body shots on the inside while catching a lot of punches on his arms and gloves, doesn't do these thing so good nowadays.
