    In the last few weeks there seems to have been a large amount of 'reports' coming from Manny's training camp.

    These range from "training is going great, he looks amazing", to "he's not doing what he's told", to "he's not showing up to run", to "he has cramps" to "he has cramps, but they're under control" to "he's got Floyd's style sussed" etc

    Is this usual from his camp? Surely it has to be mind games. They go from one extreme to another and just smell suspicious. Is it wise to ignore all the BS?

    Just to keep interest going leading up to the fight, nothing more.

    I only care what happens weeks before the fight, all this what each fighting is doing in camp is just filler for the fanboys to masturbate over.

    Is that really required? It's such a huge fight.

    Anything that comes from either camp should be taken with a grain of salt. Neither will let vital information leak unless they want it too. If they look strong or weak or if there's problems within the camp, both sides control what comes out so I would say 99% of it are just mind games.

    Some of it is real and some of it is fake, some exaggerated. They do this so the other camp doesn't know what to believe, in case real critical information leaks.

    Just a thought.

    When you don't captain your own ship, every sailor feels comfortable speaking for you and about you.

    Arum, Roach, Koncz, etc: Pac's team has been leaky like this for the past 6 years.

    All those rumors will end once the documentaries air from Showtime and HBO.

    That's part of boxing promotion and this being a huge fight doesn't change the fact that it can be made financially even bigger with promotion. You can absolutely ignore everything that's said, everything.
