    whole interview is below. Here's a little part I found interesting though
    http://www.ora.tv/larrykingnow/floyd-mayweather-0_8v4bzf6l


    Larry King: Was it tough to come back to the ring?

    Floyd: I had to make some adjustments, because my body made a change when I was locked up. I was doing 1300 pushups a day, so I had to make an adjustment. When I first got back to the boxing gym, I wasn't performing like I wanted to perform so I was saying to myself, "something is not going right."
    So I was extremely rough on myself. I got a couple bump, a couple bruises that I normally don't get. But you know now everything is falling in place, I'm comfortable, I'm happy. and I'm ready to go out there and perform.


    edit: He also said if he could fight any boxer in history, he'd pick Alexis Arguello

    Larry King: Will a fight with Manny Pacquiao ever happen?

    Floyd Mayweather: Manny Pacquiao hasn't woke up. He's still asleep

    Some social media person asked him if he could fight 1 fighter that was dead or alive, who would it be?

    Floyd Mayweather responded with Alexis Arguello. Larry king said "Who??!!...I never heard of him":lol::lol:

    That is interesting. He doesn't sound nearly as confident as he always is, and really should be fighting a seemingly undermatched opponent. Seems like Spence took a part of his soul.
    Floyd like he said on All Access is a perfectionist, and he knows he's not where he used to be. Makes the fight seem a lot more appealing to me.

    Yes!

    I want an update on the Sleepquiao Cam. Still asleep, I presume?

    Good choice by Floyd...

    Is it just me or does it look like there's some weird markings on his face? His forehead and eye on the right side.

    My #2 130 pounder ever. After Floyd.

    Would also love to see Floyd vs. Napoles at 147.
