Yeah, and Ali said he was in great condition for Holmes.
Of course Eric is going to say he's ready and he's 100% prepared. Do you expect him to say, "Well, I'm not as young as I once was. I'm not as fast, my reflexes aren't quite as sharp. I have been in a lot of wars and he did stop me the last time. I'm probably going to get knocked out quicker this time; but hey, I'll give you the best that I have left."?
What he says and what is are two different things. He may not be "shot", yet; but there aren't that many more shopping days till Christmas. He is past his best, he has had too many wars, and he will more than likely be stopped around the 6th, IMO.
It is what it is.
