Mayweather’s not a natural 147 pounder, if he didn’t eat junk food from time to time he would come in at 143ish with all that running and 4 hour training. He moved up in weight from 130 lbs.
When I boxed back in the early 2000's I did a Floyd "seminar" where his uncle did most of the teaching (It was fucking expensive) I learned how to truly pick my shots. You throw your percentage of power based on your percentage of accuracy and they showed you how to set that up but basically you should almost never throw 100% because you usually can't get 100% accuracy but if you line it up you throw like 65% accuracy with 65% power your going to do damage, once your accuracy starts rising you raise your power percent too. It was a science and I won my next 10 amateur fights using that method then I stopped due to injuries
5-10 miles a day 50 min jump rope w/wo ankle weights 50 min Shadow boxing w/wo weighs Heavy bag workout 4min 15-20 rounds of sparring a day Pad workout Strenght and conditioning exercises
He had to be the villain that never lost to reach his status more ppl would pay ppv in hopes of him losing then having an American hero every boxer from the states that want to be the hero davis's career isn't a 4th of his geovante hasn't got as big with the path paved cause he hasn't embraced being the villain
Every time I look at how hard he worked I think about how hard people hated on him because he was undefeated and he outworked everyone else this is a true champion and definitely a true legend
Me to it's bc he retired that's when I realized we will never see any thing like this again I should of enjoyed it while he was fighting even no I didn't like him and that wasn't bc he was cocky it was bc he said he was the best ever while cherry picking so many of his fights example fought canelo several years before canelo hit his prime and was ready and took fights like Shane Mosley fighters who will be hall of famers but way past there prime he should fought Pacquiao years before he did he was older than Manny but Manny was much older in the ring bc of his style of fighting. I did have Mayweather losing 1 time the first Jose Luis Castillo fight and 1 draw the first fight w/ Midiana
For real dude. Even when he would make the crowd do those cheesy chants. I didnt like it. But today is a new day and i see why he is one of the goats. I guess im just the kind of guy that looks at skills and not personalities 🤷🏽
@@kentjones3418 are you silly go look at how old floyd was lmaoooooo canelos team was pushing for it lmaoooo these excuses ill take past their prime but what is the prime ? Pac was 36 when he faught floyd and he was 38...your making yourself sound silly try again.
People talk about MJ and Kobe and how they practiced and trained. You can genuinely make an argue for Floyd being the most disciplined athlete in any sport ever.
Facts. No drugs, no alcohol, only training, 3-4X a day w 1-2 days off a year. His V02 rivals Bjorn Dale. Floyd is top 3 hardest working athlete of all time. Period.
Kobe and Floyd are both on a different level when it came to hard work if you ask me. MJ just knew how to work hard enough. Maybe that’s why he is the goat
@@wejuggernautentertainmentl3156 mate I'm as white as milk and I've followed boxing all my life n can't see there being much truth in people who don't like floyd because he's black. Surely not. Almost all the best boxers in history are black. Maybe things are different in America, I'm British. Maybe it was his persona n public image they didn't like, can't see it being because he was black. Floyd's a true true great, possibly the best to ever do it.
Floyd's cardio is almost unlimited, and his reaction times are insane! Obviously his boxing skills, accuracy and precision together make him the GOAT at boxing.
I use to dislike Floyd then I came to realize how special he is. This is a great video that gave a lot of insight to his training, and determination. I think Floyd is the GOAT with his style of boxing but others have more impressive records. He is healthy, super rich, and perfect record so he has done it all and with class.
I mentioned many years ago to anyone who would listen past their hatred that Floyd's odd training times was key to him out lasting his opponents. His body responded better than his opponents not just because he ran, all fighters run but the larger majority of them don't run/train at such odd hours after sun down. This made his body perform better than his opponents during fight night, which are times that his opponents were used to being in bed sleeping. Even when other fighters claimed they trained harder than they ever had in their life, they still didn't have the stamina of Floyd.
That's a very good point to be honest, I was thinking this week how the Tyson Fury Dillon Whyte fight starts around 10pm UK time and him training at night shows he uses the whole 24 hours in a day in a flexible way means he's ready for anything.
@@GOSUmartialarts The fact that Floyd had late nights, & partied without drinking, doing drugs or slacking in his training is proof he was MORE disciplined because he never let his environment influence him negatively, he would run after leaving the club at 3am… And scandals have nothing to do with his discipline
@@Logic7 How could he be more disciplined by having more bad habits (late nights, partying, women, spending sprees) and scandals (domestic violence, bodyguards jumping pple) and a shorter career? That doesn't make sense to me.
@@GOSUmartialarts You are making a bunch of side issues that have nothing to do with his discipline. You don’t even realize the reason he would go to clubs even though he didn’t drink or smoke was because he literally lived boxing, his entire career he lives like an owl where he slept mostly during the early day time and woke up in the evening because he wanted to train his body to be at its maximum potential during night time being that every major boxing match usually happens at night time and that’s why it didn’t matter if he went to a club for a little bit to visit friends at night because that’s not him staying up later partying, that was him just being up during normal hours and that’s why he could run home a few miles from the club. It’s honestly not even comparable in boxing who was the most disciplined, Floyd surpasses bhop and everyone else by a wide margin. I also don’t understand what his bodyguards protecting him or fighting people to protect him have anything at all to do with discipline? Especially when he was one of the most hated boxers by many casuals. I’m also confused as to what “shopping or spending sprees” has anything at all to do with his boxing discipline? Lol you are reaching so much it’s beyond obvious.
@@James_Edward59 Who had the longer career? You can look at records and all, but how many fighters had Floyd fought in their prime, at their ideal weight, and on the p4p list? I bet you can't name me more than one. Pac fought 5-6, Bhop fought 5-7, and Floyd fought 1 and chased weak title holders. And Bhop had a longer career bc he took better care of his body and held the middleweight record of 20 title defenses. After the age of 40 he moved up 2 weight classes and still beat the best guys for another 6-7 years (Pavlik, Winky Wright, Cloud, Shuminev, Tarver, etc.). Any disciplined boxer should make their health and training number one. Floyd ate fast food and partied after fights until recently. Bhop never had a poor diet. That's why he fought until age 50.
This guy trained insanely hard to achieve what he did, and unbelievable talented, I don't get why he is so hated, he literally beat everyone that was worth fighting.
The thing that always impressed me about Floyd is he was rich, famous, undefeated, and was grinding like he was broke, and a contender, a lot of really successful people become content he was always grinding, always in great shape, never drank. Truly committed to his craft🥊🐐
the 🐐 the discipline he posses’s is crazy, the hard work and dedication he puts in to keep his sharp mind is just so motivating it’s un real. I seen someone else put this and i really agree on that i hope he gets the respect he deserves 👊🏼
Floyd had more dedication and discipline for his craft than any athlete. Never outta shape, no drugs or alcohol abuse. Domestic stuff aside, Floyd is the man
One of my favorite personalities of all time. I hope boxing history gives him his dues. I think i lived in the time of the greatest boxer to walk the earth....thats pretty nifty.
Love seeing workouts that break down the top athletes workouts. And you even touched on some of the mental aspects that made Mayweather so great. Thanks for sharing!
As a huge boxing fan and follower and student, also as a big Mayweather Jr fan with a good amount of knowledge on him, this video did a great job and one of the most knowledgeable videos I’ve seen yet on him about why he is who he is and why he separates himself from the rest. I would of also added that he ever drank or smoked either though towards the end when talking about his diet. Other than that, there’s nothing else of importance I would have added to this video. Zab mentioned he would have 15-20 sparring partners lined up but what he would do is spar with a partner for 2-3 rounds with hardly any break in between and sometimes for longer than 3 minutes and keep changing partners every 2-3 rounds so that the partners were always fresh and that’s also what helped him with his endurance.
@@BoxingLife I definitely agree they should but I would say the majority don’t. They start making money and start hanging in different circles and because they are boxers, they spend time around a lot of rappers and other athletes and other people who just party and spend money. It’s easy to get caught up in that life and not focus on what you should be focusing on when you are making good money and you have a lot of women always around you.
Cant thank you enough!! Ive had pain lying down to sleep, brushing teeth, taking showing...im a 52 year old guy brought to tears after all these things i do. These things have helped. Im so grateful thank you!!
One of the best in the ring "if not the best" his defence was superhuman like something you would see out of the Matrix, alongside his counterpunching, ring Iq, he was the ultimate athlete. His fights against, Ricky hatton, pacquiao and canelo were legendary.
@@eyebeebak pacquiao was 2 years younger than him canelo was 23 yo and already fought for 11 years at that time and fought cotto and mosley and name who he "cherry picked" ?
@@eyebeebak Do you know that Floyd fought more boxers coming off their wins than Pacman . Pacman fought more boxers coming off their losses and draws than Floyd and you call Floyd a cherry picker without evidence. Floyd fought more world champions than any other boxer and u call him a cherry picker just because he beat Pacman. Canelo at his age had fought more fights than Tank and had already beaten the likes of Mosley
Great format and compilation Jamie. Currently rewatching his fight with Pacman I often slow it right down to actually appreciate and understand the guy's ability
@@BoxingLife It would have been way worse for Pacquiao had they fought earlier honestly. People tend to overlook the fact that Mayweather Jr is older than Pacquiao and time only worked in Pacquiao’s favor. Had they fought when they were supposed to before Pacquiao backed out due to not wanting to take a blood test, that was around the time Mayweather faced Juan Manuel Marquez and Ricky Hatton, that Mayweather would have embarrassed Pacquiao much more. JMM couldn’t even touch Mayweather yet JMM gave Pacquiao a tough time every time they faced each other and also beat him and knocked him out to the point people thought he was literally dead.
if you are working out 6 hours a day and jogging nonstop, doing 5000 puchups etc eating junk food wont really damage you much if you have a steady nutrition and diet most of the time.
After seeing him coming through all these almost impossible unless 100% dedication. He deserves to talk big and even bigger as he is the greatness of one's.
The fast pads with roger also help by building a rhythmic memory of punch selection which takes the thinking time down to nothing. Like remembering a song. You can hear it in your head, same with the man dance, you can feel the punches being thrown in your mind
Floyd reminds me of bruce lee... in that he obsessed with training as if it was life or death. He was not going to let his opponent be in better shape than him ever. Many boxers lose due to who tires first. Floyd was determined to eliminate that possibility. Bruce used to say that every time you fight it could mean life or death, so you have to train as if your life depends on it. And in pro boxing that can be very much a reality.
@@shesbaldbutiwould if you study his bio he fought wong jack man, the foremost instructor in America at the time. And also a couple guys tested him on set just to see if he could really fight. Also he got into a lot of fights as a child which is why his parents enrolled him into martial arts
another thing to add for the uppercut lesson, its almost natual to throw it in a circular motion where it starts coming back to your face, which is not good; specifically because it can slide off whatever youre aiming for and knock back to your own head. You want to drive the uppercut outwards
Thinking of Floyd's dedication to training, I wonder if he had so many people around while training was to simulate the stress of fighting in the arena. It would help explain how relaxed he was in the ring
He’s defenatly an inspiration for people of all trades and professions. He is someone anyone can try to immitate to put in the hard work nessesary for making it to the top.
The padwork is all about positioning. It teaches all the main positions and ways to transition your head slots without overcommiting. I don't personally use it but it's all about how you interact with your opponents centerline. Slips, pulls, ducking under, rolling and pivoting etc. There's much great stuff in one drill. Problem is that a lot of coaches teach it completely wrong.
work and dedication is just a small fraction for the reason of his success, he grew up with 2 boxing trainers in his family, his father and especially his uncle who was one hell of a trainer, his uncle's coaching was an invaluable asset that played a huge part in Floyd's development and success , Floyd was literally born into boxing, it's like the stars were aligned for him to become a succesful boxer, many boxers work hard but not many got into boxing from such favorable circumstances
I always wanted to hear an interview of Floyd talk boxing. Just boxing. No money n lifestyle fluff. I want to hear the analysis and the details about his boxing. Also the specifics about his training which is not shown to the public
The consistency in Floyd’s training throughout his career is one of the best, if not the best. Despite he can became a multi-millionaire boxer, he still train hard. Former boxer Zab Judah once said " Yep!! Zab Judah once said about Floyd " This guy trains like he's still poor" that speaks volumes.
The chewing gum thing is actually for focus look it up when you chew gum while doing anything that stimulates the brain like mitt work or even taking a test it can help you focus and helps your memory as well! Fun fact ahah
That’s what I be saying . Everyone only remembers him from his last 8 fights . The man really used to be offensive and stood toe to toe before the bad hands
Shout out to everyone who really share documents do videos and give Floyd his flowers while he’s still here this is my favorite fighter or he was while fighting I been a fan since at least 95 96 and he the best
People dislike him because of his brashness. I mean he trash talked the Great Ali. But like Ali, hard work and dedication leaves little room for humility.
I'm a former world champion martial artist three times I've won the world karate champion ship if I had seen this video and been taught how to properly train earlier I would not have relied so much on my athleticism then on my training regiment which means I would have won more World titles but this kind of regiment I instill in my students

Jamie. Currently rewatching his fight with Pacman I often slow it right down to actually appreciate and understand the guy's ability
Thanks Pete! Yeah he did some really great things in that fight. It might have been different story if they had fought earlier in their careers!
Yeah you need to slow down his fights to truly see and appreciate his genius 👏🏾🔥🔥
@@BoxingLife It would have been way worse for Pacquiao had they fought earlier honestly. People tend to overlook the fact that Mayweather Jr is older than Pacquiao and time only worked in Pacquiao’s favor. Had they fought when they were supposed to before Pacquiao backed out due to not wanting to take a blood test, that was around the time Mayweather faced Juan Manuel Marquez and Ricky Hatton, that Mayweather would have embarrassed Pacquiao much more. JMM couldn’t even touch Mayweather yet JMM gave Pacquiao a tough time every time they faced each other and also beat him and knocked him out to the point people thought he was literally dead.
@@TrendMasters360_ yeah,he could duck and counterpunch at blinding speeds
if you are working out 6 hours a day and jogging nonstop, doing 5000 puchups etc eating junk food wont really damage you much if you have a steady nutrition and diet most of the time.
After seeing him coming through all these almost impossible unless 100% dedication. He deserves to talk big and even bigger as he is the greatness of one's.
The Best Ever? Hell Yeah!! No one ever will be able to solve the skills & technique of Floyd MAYWEATHER Jr🥊🇺🇸🇺🇸
Exactly, their is no blueprint to beating Floyd.
@@James_Edward59 Julio Cesar Chavez Snr had the Blueprint
@@OldSchoolStrength How did he have the blueprint? Send me the link to JCC boxing Mayweather Jr with him using this blueprint you speak of.
@@OldSchoolStrength yea sure...if u say so 😂
@@OldSchoolStrength Julio Cesar Chavez Sr will get his old behind beat down .lol
The fast pads with roger also help by building a rhythmic memory of punch selection which takes the thinking time down to nothing. Like remembering a song. You can hear it in your head, same with the man dance, you can feel the punches being thrown in your mind
He walked away from an incredibly hard sport in amazing shape.
I don't care what anyone has to say Floyd Money Mayweather is the greatest fighter/boxer that ever lived hands down no 🧢
Thanks for the calm commentary throughout the UA-cam video.
It's respectful both to the sport and the boxer. Thank you.
Best Defensive fighter of all time.
What a greatly made video, very informative and the narration wasn’t over the top or boring. 🔥🔥
Glad you enjoyed it!
Floyd reminds me of bruce lee... in that he obsessed with training as if it was life or death. He was not going to let his opponent be in better shape than him ever. Many boxers lose due to who tires first. Floyd was determined to eliminate that possibility. Bruce used to say that every time you fight it could mean life or death, so you have to train as if your life depends on it. And in pro boxing that can be very much a reality.
who did bruce lee fight
@@shesbaldbutiwould if you study his bio he fought wong jack man, the foremost instructor in America at the time. And also a couple guys tested him on set just to see if he could really fight. Also he got into a lot of fights as a child which is why his parents enrolled him into martial arts
@@worldtraveler8613 okay so one guy and some rumoured fights,gotcha.
another thing to add for the uppercut lesson, its almost natual to throw it in a circular motion where it starts coming back to your face, which is not good; specifically because it can slide off whatever youre aiming for and knock back to your own head. You want to drive the uppercut outwards
Complete fighter 💯💪👊🥊
Hard work n dedications

Thinking of Floyd's dedication to training, I wonder if he had so many people around while training was to simulate the stress of fighting in the arena. It would help explain how relaxed he was in the ring
Favorite Floyd quote: “All work is easy work” Imma get there one day 😂
I said this awhile back and I still believe it to this day, I don't think anyone in any sport has ever working harder than Floyd Mayweather.
He’s defenatly an inspiration for people of all trades and professions. He is someone anyone can try to immitate to put in the hard work nessesary for making it to the top.
Him and Uncle Roger were the greatest combo. They’ve been together so long it was just sync
I would love to see more of training routine breakdowns of you
The padwork is all about positioning. It teaches all the main positions and ways to transition your head slots without overcommiting. I don't personally use it but it's all about how you interact with your opponents centerline. Slips, pulls, ducking under, rolling and pivoting etc. There's much great stuff in one drill. Problem is that a lot of coaches teach it completely wrong.
All about the flow 😉
RIP Roger Mayweather, boxing fans miss 😢 .....
like my middle school football coach said, "k.i.s.s. keep it simple stupid" no need to overcomplicate things. it worked 50 years ago, it'll work today
His mitt workout was a thing to behold
work and dedication is just a small fraction for the reason of his success, he grew up with 2 boxing trainers in his family, his father and especially his uncle who was one hell of a trainer, his uncle's coaching was an invaluable asset that played a huge part in Floyd's development and success , Floyd was literally born into boxing, it's like the stars were aligned for him to become a succesful boxer, many boxers work hard but not many got into boxing from such favorable circumstances
It’s true that no body like him but everyone wants to be like him.
Dedication, discipline, and love of his sport... Excellent Athlete!!! uchallenge - Where the world competes...
I can't tell you how many people hate Mayweather until their coach taught them his techniques. Now hes a genius.
I always wanted to hear an interview of Floyd talk boxing. Just boxing. No money n lifestyle fluff. I want to hear the analysis and the details about his boxing. Also the specifics about his training which is not shown to the public
Such a great video, you earned yourself a fan. Thanks for putting this together.
Thank you!
you got a portion of this completely wrong. his speed and reflexes is uncanny. his skill is just icing on the cake
The reason why he was one of the best was because he was fighting a war whereas every opponent was fighting a battle.
Floyd greatness was his discipline in training and discipline outside no alcohol or smoking boxing is all he knows it's what he was born in..GOAT 🐐
The consistency in Floyd’s training throughout his career is one of the best, if not the best. Despite he can became a multi-millionaire boxer, he still train hard. Former boxer Zab Judah once said " Yep!! Zab Judah once said about Floyd " This guy trains like he's still poor" that speaks volumes.
A lot of life lessons in his training regiments I'm very inspired by him putting in the work to be the best boxer in his class in his life time!!!!!!!
Floyd Mayweather is an exceptional boxer. We may never see anyone like him in our life time again
That special mitt work was for hand eye coordination, awareness, reflexes and conditioning
The chewing gum thing is actually for focus look it up when you chew gum while doing anything that stimulates the brain like mitt work or even taking a test it can help you focus and helps your memory as well! Fun fact ahah
Yeah reminds me of me, yup,workout hard/stay focus/rest/go right back to it
This is what i was looking for! Thanks for making one
Bro your voice is so soothing
Haha thanks!
Legend. One of the best to ever bless the sport.
utmost respect for Floyd. the attitude is unparalleled.
Love it. My fave so far. Keep it up
Glad you enjoyed
No flaws frfr his work ethic incredible his skills unmatched
Floyd is described as a defensive boxer, but how come no one talks about his knockout record? 27 KO wins in 50 fights!
That’s what I be saying . Everyone only remembers him from his last 8 fights . The man really used to be offensive and stood toe to toe before the bad hands
Beacause they are mostly technical KO
Well put together. Very interesting. Commendable and refreshing. Appreciated.
Inspired
You should do one on Jaron boots ennis
Will put him down on the list!
When he has a big win ...
Even though floyeds old and retired, I find myself more interested in what's going on with floyed then the young fighters in the spotlight now!
I think Floyd’s punches have enough pop to make most fighters cautious or at bay
Shout out to everyone who really share documents do videos and give Floyd his flowers while he’s still here this is my favorite fighter or he was while fighting I been a fan since at least 95 96 and he the best
People dislike him because of his brashness. I mean he trash talked the Great Ali. But like Ali, hard work and dedication leaves little room for humility.
And they like Connor because of his brashness, smh
@@Addi_Teacha509 there are other factors that make the general population like Conner over Mayweather. .
What a champion!!! I have a few in mind and he is definitely one of them.
💯✅👍
Good Work... Boxing Life...
great video... very inspiring... for many... boxing or not...
Much appreciated man! 👊
Watching Floyd train is a work of art…
I no good with my hands. But I enjoy. Watching the mindset behind a great. I respect the hard work they put into. It.
Floyd is the greatest of all time, because he claimed he was the greatest fighter of all time. Manifestation. 🐐
Actions speak louder than words,
Impressive and motivating. And I'm a little older and a judo practitioner.
I'm a former world champion martial artist three times I've won the world karate champion ship if I had seen this video and been taught how to properly train earlier I would not have relied so much on my athleticism then on my training regiment which means I would have won more World titles but this kind of regiment I instill in my students
Thats great to hear man
What do you think you would've done differently to have more longevity?
I caught myself saying hardwork, dedication in my sleep.
RIP, Roger! 🙏🏻
The hand of god that's a person u can't beat TBE ❤
Would people stop deleting Jeff mayweather from the history of Floyd jnr career
