    When has he ever been spotted or photographed overweight or out of shape between fights? My vote has to go between him and Wladimir :deal. It's unfortunate to see how many fighters let themselves go between fights and have in the past and still happens even now or that eat themselves out of their divisions.

    Yeah probably. Bhop/Wlad also stay in shape. There are some others, but Mayweather is a good example.

    Bhop is a good shout and I'd say he's probably the most dedicated surpassing even Floyd. Training wise, Mayweather is most likely the most hard-working out there but Bhop lives the far healthier life-style or so it seems.

    I can name a whole bunch that have been spotted overweight or ballooning up between fights or that ate their way out of a weight class.

    Khan
    Danny Garcia
    Morales
    Maidana
    Tim Bradley
    Pacquiao
    Juan Manuel Marquez
    Broner
    Chavez Jr
    Joan Guzman

    I don't chill with him. Or any other boxer for that matter. So I (and you) have no idea.

    Obviously if we're going by results the answer is yes.

    Well. The fact is quite a few boxers have been spotted overweight or fat between fights. It's quite a few boxers present and past. For being a top level fighter like Mayweather is he seems to have never let the fame or money get to him so much so that he abandons his physical abilities and lets his ****yness override his dedication and practice he puts in

    Rigondeaux was one of the fighters that crossed my mind.

    deontay wilders probably a good choice. but no amount of training will be able to hide his weak chin and lack of boxing experiene :think

    Floyd is always in shape, some dudes do it cause they have to, others always push themselves to go the extra mile, he's one of those, don't wanna see him leave, but know eventually he has too.

    sure we have a idea :think

    we could be wrong if the many that chill with him are all deceiving the masses but if not the answer is yes, the guy keeps himself in very good shape in a smart dedicated overall way that makes it that much easier for him to succeed as much as he has.
