Footage of Floyd Mayweather Jr. settling full swing into camp mode has begun to sprout up on the internet. Fight Hype has a couple of clips of the undefeated champ doing calisthenics and weight training and TMZ got some good shots of him sparring in the gym. While it is clear that he is yet to have peaked and is slowly making his way towards the unconquerable shape fans are used to seeing Floyd enter the ring in, his words show him to be as determined as ever.
"You name 'em I'll beat 'em. You name 'em I'll beat 'em," Floyd boasted after going to work on the heavy bag, in a recording released on Thursday, June 22. "I be trying to tell ya'll I can get a black eye, I can get a bloody nose, I can have a bad day in the gym. At the end of the day I don't have a bad payday, and I don't have a bad night under the lights."
Smack talk and self-reassurance have always been a big part of Floyd's preparation for a fight. In that regard, he and Conor McGregor are two birds of a feather. While we have yet seen too much of McGregor in his training element, there in fact were some early clips that made their way onto the internet months ago. Those who are hoping on a shocking outcome from the UFC star can only hope that he's continued to hit the gym since that time, as the fight is only nine weeks away.
