    Trains hard yes. Work ethic? He only works once a year if that. And he doesnt have very much ethics to begin with. I remember one time he said he was there for moral support for a fighter but floyd doesnt have any morals.

    Training is work. :patsch Training is often harder then the fight. And Floyd Mayweather trains year round, why he maintains his weight.


    Stupid post.

    That is impossible to say. I know Floyd is a beast when it comes to training. I went to see him train for his fight against Ortiz.. He trained for 4 hours with 30the sec to 1 minute breaks. When he first came in he started sparring. I don't remember who he was sparring but he stopped him. He kicked his ass pretty bad. That is why I knew Ortiz was going to lose. His mitt routine is just like it is on 24/7. Floyd trains like a maniac.

    Merchant said Floyd would spar 15 minute rounds sometimes and have guys cycle in. I've hear people confirm this a few times.

    Hopkins, the Klitschkos.

    The klits have looked the same for like the last 10 years and weigh within the same 10lb range or so over 10 years. Consider as well in their 30s and vitali over 40 and with their size they cant do as much running, especially vitali, as its harder on their knees.

    I reckon Hagler took his training more serious even than Floyd did.

    you see , training is work for *****s

    no wonder KFC-trainees are working! :) joke

    about the weight, you void did maintain his weight but i just wonder why he was not able to hit the 144 lbs during the marquez fight and instead altered the contract on the last minute so that the penalty will be less. i even though why he cant afford such penalty that he needs the contract to be altered at all
