Floyd does use weights now. I think it was after 135 to 140 where he had to start breaking his natural size and he did this with muscle. He never does weights like bodybuilding or weightlifting. He made it clear that it isn't about how good he looks or how much he can lift.
Floyds workout always varies. Its not one set thing. One thing he likes alot (which is right) is he warms up real well. He'll shadow box and stretch out for about 15 minutes. Whatever he does, he never really does rounds. He just boxes for upto an hour on the bag, pads, sparring etc He'll take short breaks sometime to catch his breath or have some water. When I say short breaks I mean upto 15 seconds.
Things he always does is warm up, skip for about 20 minutes, hit the pads/ body belt for quite a while, about 45mins, he'll also go on the heavybag for a bit but he doesn't bomb away because he has bad hands, also he'll go on the speed bag.
Floyd does everything a typical boxer does but he does quality and tweaks it to suit him. For example when he skips he does the moves he likes. When he hits the pads, he does it in a particular style that suits him and his trainer. When he hits the bag he doesn't kill his hands.
He does like ankle and wrist weights. He'll keep putting them on to make the workout harder. He also loves sit ups and neck weight harness. He'll basically do both of these every time.
Leonard Ellerbe is his strength and conditioning coach. Ellerbes a tank. He is the one who guides Floyds weight regime, sit ups, head weight harness etc
Floyd can often be found at 24 hour fitness in the early hours of the morning, he simple has no set routine and trains when he feels like it, takes a day off when he feels like it etc
He's never had a drop of alcohol in his mouth in his life and has been boxing/ training since he was 18 months old, but he goes to clubs most nights and buys the ladies champaigne
