    I'll take Floyd swimming over Manny riding the swings on the park any day, all day.
    Just goes to show that Floyd is dead serious about this fight and will leave no room for doubt on May 2.

    You gotta respect that dedication to his craft, any fan of the sport should.

    A simple reason why the Duck was always perceived as scared is because he always said it before boastful including his cracked dad, that pacquiao is an easy fight. And yet he train like theres no more tomorrow and in different style that he never done before

    You can't take what they say in front of the camera all to heart. The reason they say half of what they say is so the fans keep talking and keep interested in the fight. Like Floyd has successfully done. On this thread alone, 8 pages simply discussing a 10 second clip of him swimming in a pool.

    Swimming can only complement Floyd's preparation.

    you the pacult is 100% correct, Floyd is petrified of pac and that is the reason he made pac another offer and this one pac could NOT refuse.

    that is the action of someone that would do anything to not have this fight. most gullible pac cult groupies we have on this site. my goodness this is pathetic, Floyd is training seriously, must because he knows there is no way he can win. why even show up to fight, go in take a quick jab and lay down.

    if Floyd wants to know how to lay down correctly in the ring he can view multiple pac fighst where pac takes long long naps center ring. this is going to be a brand new experience for floyd

    Exactly! Floyds been around a long time. He knows how to train and he knows what he's doing. I'm a personal trainer and I can tell you chopping wood and swimming are incredible exercises for a sport like boxing. Strength, stamina, core stability. All important in boxing.

    Whoever recommended to Floyd that he should take up swimming in preparation for a boxing match should lose their job. Someone clearly wants him to lose. It just makes no sense. The idea of floyd swimming is just hilarious to me. All the breast strokes in the world won't prepare him for the force of nature that is Manny Pacquiao.

    No, he wasn't scared when he signed the contract because it didn't sink in yet. It's only now that Floyd realizes he may have bitten off more than he can chew. As the fight approaches and he knows he can't back out the terror is starting to build.

    He still can't do either. Look how he never breaths between the motions. He just go until he runs out of air. Look how stiff his arms are. And he's in a kid pool. Looks like he never swam before. Or he just isn't able to do it. :blood
