    Excellent videos man, thanks for sharing. He gives some great insights and talks a lot of sense, which is hard to imagine given how he usually acts. Fair play to him.

    In the 3rd one, who came in midway through? was it Shane Mosley or his Dad? Floyd looked a little surprised for a second

    Fantastic interviews.

    Really good to hear him talk about his Amateur career, Not showing off/acting flash etc.

    didn't know he was able to hold his own against Pernell at a young age and that the right hand to the body was one of his favorite shots. Always thought Pernell's style would give him hell.

    Style wise pernell is the boxer out of the two mayweather has to try to walk him down like he did zab and all the other south paws his faced.

    I wish pernell was around today he would have been in mayweathers place.

    that's how it is in the midwest. it ain't a big deal to see some of the shorties do something like that in a street fight. check some of the juniors boxing at these amateur shows. they have skill.

    best floyd interview yet. good ****.

    These are some great interviews man. Because you can feel it. Floyd may not be able to speak well sometime, as he struggles thinking through how he wants to express something, but you can feel the emotion. This Mayweather is more relevant. When he talks about his childhood, it's like he is reliving it, and he gets all excited about it... you can tell within, that boxing is far more than a money making thing to him, it's really all he dreamed, thought about, and hoped for as a kid.

    He got the better of him, but Floyd didnt say so out of respect.
