    If you looked at all of the greates, most successful athletes in any sport, joe. Montana, tiger woods, Peyton manning, Michael Jordan. One thing they had in common is their hate and fear of losing. This is mentally what set them apart from great athletes other than their skill, their hate and fear of losing.

    What you call a weakness, is the most absurd thing I've ever heard because it is a key component psychologically in defining greatness.

    Floyd is training his ass off because his fear and hatred of losing, it's he same drive amplified by and understanding of the magnitude and respect for pac as a true threat to all he's worked for. That my friend is true intelligence, to prepare and work your ass off because he knows everything to be gained and lost in the biggest fight of this generation.

    In that regard I have respect for floyd and his approach to this fight.

    If that is true, Pac is really going to get his rear kicked. Bad.

    Excellent post and spot on. One of my favorite comments: "A good loser, is a loser for life."

    Yeah he knows he will have to dig deep. That Smith interview was very telling. He said pac is no ordinary fighter and he feels he needs to go back to his roots. You can sense that floyd himself knows this is going to be a tough fight.

    Good ****ogy.

    Too bad you miss the important part. What do Jordan, Montana, and Manning have in common that Tiger lacks?

    Longevity.

    The aforementioned three knew how to back off on their training as they got older. In your 30s training is polish polish polish. If you don't get that your body will start to break down as it did with Tiger. And it happens really ****ing fast.
