    maybe not in the sense of "how the **** did he just do that" moments that we had throuh jones jr's career

    but just in the fact that floyd seems to eat whatever he wants whenever e wants and still gets in phenomenal shape

    i know genetics plays a big part and his dad eats **** and still looks great for his age (no homo)

    but when u see floyd eating a burger like 3 days before the fight and drinking fizzy drinks in training, its crazy to think this guy figts at the level he does


    is he proving that what you eat doesnt always effect your performance, or is he just special to where he can eat what he likes and his body will still respond

    also, could mayweather go on into his 40's with his skill level and knowledge or would his diet restrict him to only last as long as any who aint b-hop

    not better no, but the whole diet thing reminds me of the story about randy moss eating hot tamales and a coke before one of the first games and then going out and catching a number of td passes. Some guys are just freaks.

    Multi Olympic medal winner Michael Phelps often gorges on ice-cream, chocolate and the likes just to get enough calories into his body. Maybe this is what Floyd was doing?

    No Roy Jones Jr was the best athlete ever to step foot in a boxing ring.

    Even though I think you made yourself look like an idiot in Larry Merchant thread but you are right here.
    RJJ was one in a century phenomena. I have never seen(and probably will never see again) such gifted athlete. His reflexes was so extremely fast that even cats would've envied him.

    RJJ was a better athelete. I also think Sergio Martinez is a naturally better athlete than Floyd. Doesn't mean they are better fighters though.
