    Zab is one of the mentally weakest.:D If not for his mental makeup he would be a much better fighter.

    PAC IS NOT menatally strong!!!! He let "wearing the wrong socks" take him completely out of his game in the first Morales fight (or was it the JMM fight), and also he has admitted that the entire "blood weakness" thing is mental as well

    Rigondeaux seems to be very mentally strong. Watched quite a few of his amateur bouts the other week and the one thing that stood out the most was how he was able to remain composed throughout all his fights.

    Hmmmmmm you might have a point there. But I think he was just making excuses.

    if judah had marquez or calzaghe's mental toughness he'd have been in the p4p top 10 for the past decade.

    The socks were why he drew against Marquez. He lost to Morales because of the gloves. That was until the Mayweather incident. Now the blood testing is why he lost to Morales.

    The sock thing if true would be more physical than mental.

    As for the blood weakness thing, its something that happens outside the ring. And how the **** would Pac know if its mental or physical, he is not a doctor and would not be able to tell the difference anyways.

    Inside the ring, Pac is possibly the strongest fighter in the sport, mentally . He gets hit flush by much bigger punchers than him and has the mental strength to make it seem like he isn't even feeling the punches. He wears down opponents who are bigger and stronger than him. He makes them fight his fight. He makes fighters lose their confidence and abandon their gameplan in an instant.

    Abraham, Vitali, Froch

    Especially Abraham. A guy who gives the early rounds away in every fight without getting nervous - that's a mentally strong fighter. He's such a patient guy...you can't do what he does if you are not mentally strong.

    Yeah I don't see it. Every fighter gets punched! Every fighter is mentally strong, or else they wouldn't be at that level. Pacman however has been rattled on more then one occassion, he and his camp have stated his mental weaknesses. The sock thing wasn't physical, come on :lol: It's not like he was wearing thorn bushes on his feet, any MENTALLY STRONG fighter would deal with the wrong brand of damn socks, and yes the entire not giving blood thing???? That is NOT physical either! They have said multiple times that it's MENTAL with him. How can such a mentally strong person NOT be able to get through something that doesn't even ACTUALLY effect you physically???

    Pac fans want it all different ways. Either he is lying about the socks and the blood tests, OR he isn't as mentally strong as you say. :deal

    Clottey, Margarito, Shane, Glen Johnson...they all show me that nothing their opponent does demoralizes them or pushes them off their game plan.
