Mayweather believes hard work and dedication

The undefeated five-division world champion opens his doors to the fans and the world for an uncut, unscripted view of his training regimen as he prepares for the Mayweather vs Cotto event on May 5th, 2012 at the Entertainment Capital of the World.

Floyd Mayweather (42-0) firmly thinks that the main reason why he is the pound for pound king today is his hard work and dedication. Won all of his 42 professional bouts, Floyd sees himself as a “good guy” instead of a “bad guy” as what many of his detractors tag him. Considers himself as a respectable person, not only in boxing but also as a father to his kids and a boss in his training camp, Mayweather claims that he is not “trash talking” because he can do the things he said.

Miguel Cotto (37-2) acknowledges that Floyd will be a difficult opponent for him but with the proper training and strategies, he can enter the shoulder roll defense of the undefeated Grand Rapids, Michigan native. Miguel now trains with Pedro Diaz instead of popular trainer Emmanuel Steward, who is busy training the Klitschko brothers and other pugilists. Cotto, who will defend his WBA (World Boxing Association) Light Middleweight Belt, sees a tough competition ahead but believes in his skills to defeat the very elusive Mayweather.

Floyd is boxing icon today. He is a future hall of famer and he will be looked by many boxing fans as a “bad guy” because of the way he talks in front of the camera. Many people do not like him because it seems he is avoiding a mega-fight against another pound-for-pound king Manny Pacquiao, who is also very hard working and dedicated to everything he do.

The Mayweather vs Cotto fight will be on May 5th at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas Nevada. The Mayweather vs Cotto fight will be shown live on HBO Pay-per-View.

Prediction: Pacquiao will end Marquez in 6 rounds

Manny Pacquiao will handily beat Juan Manuel Marquez in 5 or 6 rounds, according to some boxing analyst and many boxing fans. Analysts cited several factors that will favor the country’s 8-division champion over the Mexican boxer. Manny’s so powerful, and he’s fighting at a higher weight),” They said. Many believes that even with help from weight experts, Marquez will still have a hard time maintaining his speed at 144 pounds because of his age.

It will be difficult for Marquez to go up to 144. He’s much slower at 38 years old. Pacquiao-Marquez have already fought twice. The last time they fought was in 2008 at the super featherweight division (130 lbs). On November 12, Pacquiao and Marquez will square off for the third time at the 144 lb. catchweight. With the way Manny trains, his speed, his power and conditioning, I think Manny will win by technical knockout, 5 or 6 rounds.

Mayweather vs Ortiz: Really strange to someone?

Floyd Mayweather vs Víctnr Ortiz will face each other on September 17 at MGM Grand in Las Vegas. In my opinion, Mayweather is going to walk to Victor Ortiz. Although the boy came to put him a hand, the difference in speed is important. Ortiz hits not assimilate very well, but Mayweather does not have a prominent attached so it does not smell KO. Here the approach will be strategic and Floyd will be a night at the office showing off his swordsmanship, the best in boxing today.

Ortiz, son of Mexicans born in Kansas, is an exciting fighter, hardened and pass a legitimate champion. At 24 came the 'Vicious' the pinnacle of his career when he defeated Andre Berto unanimous decision in a fight anthology on 16 April. Beyond that Ortiz has had interesting encounters, among others, the Argentinian Maidana, who lost by technical knockout in six rounds and against Nate Campbell who passed by decision.

But still, it is clear that the disorder is so prevalent in boxing. Regardless of whether Pacquiao, who will fight November 12 against Juan Manuel Marquez, willy-nilly take dozens of tests requiring steroids discard Mayweather in boxing at the end are the promoters, fighters and some epileptic entities who disguise of authority and take their own measures.

Watch Mayweather vs Ortiz Update

Golden Boy Promotions chief executive Richard Schaefer has revealed that the upcoming WBC welterweight contest between Floyd Mayweather and champion Victor Ortiz will be the most ‘heavily promoted’ bout in the history of boxing. Mayweather and Ortiz meet on September 17. This is also dubbed as a comeback fight for Mayweather who has been missing inside the ring for more than 16 months. His last fight was up against Shane Mosley way back in May 2010 where he won the WBA Super Welterweight World title via unanimous decision. The still-undefeated boxer has a record of 41 wins with 25 of them by knockouts. He holds nine world titles in five different weight divisions. He was previously considered as the second pound for pound boxer in the world but his name soon slipped down after having been inactive in the boxing world for more than a year, where Manny Pacquiao currently holds the top spot, much to his chagrin. Ortiz will need to find a way to land one of his big punches, potentially hoping that Mayweather is a bit rusty or his reflexes are a bit slower with age and time. Mayweather will look to counter punch and take advantage of ample opportunities to hit the aggressive, less experienced and less talented fighter. Well, Mayweather vs Ortiz is really an interesting match and I guess every Pacquiao fan will want to see this fight. So, better Watch Mayweather vs Ortiz this September 27 to see who among them will take home the WBC World Welterweight title.

After Shane Mosley they consider Marquez

Talks are already rife about Pacquiao’s next fight penciled for November possibly against Mexico’s master counter-puncher, Juan Manuel Marquez, in case Floyd Mayweather finally wakes up one day realizing that it’s about time to face the Filipino sporting icon. But assuming Mayweather remains deaf and callous to the public clamor, Hall of Fame promoter Bob Arum has already somebody in mind to close out 2011 with a bang.

Still, even if a script is already made for the next move, an unforeseen circumstance lurks behind, something that should put everything upside. A hundred miles away from the glitz and glamour of Hollywood, Shane Mosley is plotting the destruction of boxing’s premier attraction when they finally come face-to-face and mano-a-mano on May 7 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

Holed out in Big Bear, nestled in the San Bernardino mountains that is almost 8,000 feet above sea level, Mosley has been training since early-March as though he would be up not only against Pacquiao but against the gazillions of Pacquiao fans.

“You just have to keep going, and going and going (in training),” said Mosley from his high-altitude training camp, his voice oozing with heightened optimism.

Even Arum sounds a bit concerned of what a cagey veteran like Mosley can bring to the ring.

“Shane can take a good shot and he is so resilient,” said Arum.

Obviously, Pacquiao realized very early that despite the lackluster ending of Mosley’s last two fights, taking him for granted is tantamount to giving the other guy an advantage.

Pacquiao still favorite by bettors’ bet

Pacquiao vs Mosley
A look at the latest odds shows that Mosley's marquee opponent, pound for pound king Manny Pacquiao, on May 7 in Las Vegas remains the huge favorite in their scheduled 12-round World Boxing Organization welterweight match-up at the MGM Grand. Sportsbook lists Pacquiao a -800 favorite and Mosley a +500 underdog, meaning an $800 bet on Pacquiao would only win $100 and a mere $100 wager on Mosley would win $500.

That, despite of Mosley’s no-nonsense preparation. Even Pacquiao's Canadian adviser Mike Koncz was surprised with the way Mosley appeared when he faced the media last Tuesday.

"Mosley looks in real great shape," said Koncz, who had obviously seen the American puncher's photos on the internet as he was working out for the media. "His body is toned and you can see that he is taking the fight very seriously," added Koncz.

Mosley actually beat Pacquiao to the punch as he reported for training camp some 10 days before the Filipino actually went up to Baguio City with Freddie Roach. At 39 years old, Mosley believes he still has a lot of championship juice left and that the world will be in for a shock come fight night. Mosley said he prefers to win big – as in by knockout – against Pacquiao.

But Pacquiao is also eyeing the same kind of ending as nobody has yet stop Mosley dead in his tracks. Although Mosley has suffered a few losses, he has never been stopped in his stellar career. Manny Pacquiao vs Shane Mosley is promoted by Top Rank in association with MP Promotions,Sugar Shane Mosley Promotions, Tecate and MGM Grand.

The Pacquiao vs Mosley fight is scheduled on May 7 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada. We’re covering the basics of training,” said Pacquiao. His Canadian adviser, Michael Koncz, said Pacquiao only wanted to make sure that his conditioning is already at an ideal level before he begins the heavy training.

“We’re not underestimating Mosley. He’s the most experienced fighter that Manny’s ever faced,” said Koncz.

Pacquiao, also hailed as the “Fighter of the Decade”, will be staking his World Boxing Organization (WBO) welterweight title when he faces Mosley in Las Vegas.
