http://www.fightnews.com/wheatley187.htm Should Mayweathers sparring partners be disclosing his condition routines? Do you think changing the timer schedule to random will really improve your readyness to fight multiple 3 minute rounds? [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]"The guy is a fitness freak. I kinda like that because I'm a fitness freak too. Now I can see why he is so good at what he does and why he has been so successful. The guy is a hard worker and I can tell he loves and enjoys what he does. The way he does his sparring, padwork or bagwork is totally different. In most gyms when people spar they use a buzzer to keep the time. Usually they spar for 3 or 4 minutes a round with 30 seconds break. But over here they do it different. They don't use a buzzer. They have someone keeping time. Sometimes you will spar for 7 or 9 minutes straight a round with only 10 or 15 seconds break. In other words, your break is to get just a little sip of water and get back to business. Sometimes you will be doing this for six, eight or ten rounds. Now to do this you gotta have to be super fit or otherwise you won't last a round. And Mayweather don't play around in sparring. So whenever you step in the ring with him you gotta make sure you bringing your triple A game with you or otherwise you won't see what's hitting you."[/FONT]
Should we really believe this? I mean, N'Dou is a guy who got his ass handled by Mayweather. Why wouldn't he try to save himself by claiming he lost to some inhuman, unstoppable freak of nature? edit - He also claims that Tsyzu was a "shell" and that Castillo threw the fight. Can you really argue with four broken ribs?
