10 Things You Didn't Know About Floyd Mayweather

7. Hard Work, Dedication

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=spn-aWP_UFE Mayweather is unquestionably blessed with outrageous physical gifts but you don€™t win 46 fights from 46 without absolute commitment. Stop by his gym and you will likely hear the phrase €œHard work, dedication€ echoing around the building, and it€™s a fitting mantra. The fighter shies away from cigarettes and alcohol, and his sweet tooth and penchant for greasy food are vices he more than makes up for with a formidable work ethic. Here, Mayweather takes us through an average training session ahead of a big fight: €œI do a little shadow boxing; I spar between seven and 12 rounds €“ it all depends on how I feel €“ and then I work the heavy bag for 20 or 30 minutes; floor work with Roger; then I work the pads with Roger; work the bodysuit with Nate ; do the speed bag; neck work with the weights; 200 sit-ups, pull-ups, dips, jump rope; and sometimes the double-end bag €“ so it€™s a long, long day. Then, I run between five and eight miles after training is over.€ Just reading it is enough to tire you out, and helps explain both how the boxer reached the top and what it takes to stay there.

I watch movies and I watch sport. I also watch movies about sport, and if there were a sport about movies I'd watch that too. The internet was the closest thing I could find.
