lol @ blaming the water. It was the rope-a-dope that did him in and Foreman always says to this day he was the dope. In otherwords he fell for Ali's strategy, throwing haymakers and wasting his energy until Ali felt he was winded and the rest is history.
IMO the very fact that floyd is demanding these tests means he's scared of losing. He claims he's the greatest of all time and he can beat pacquiao easily, he says pac has been KO'd and he fights like an amateur. He says he'll make easy work of Pacquiao. Pac isn't even a natural welterweight and floyd says he's a midget. And yet he wont fight unless it's under his conditions? Something isn't right there with flloyd, he lacks confidence. And that was proven imo when pac agreed to the tests and floyd still wont fight. What else more you want?
This is the same guy who changed his nickname to "Money" and yet the biggest purse in boxing history he wont take. It's mind boggling.
But floyd is a part time fighter, like Oscar was, he's turned into a celebrity chaser hanging out with all the big stars rubbing elbows, spending money, enjoying the good life. He doesn't care about boxing anymore. He's been removed from the pound 4 pound lists, he's not going to be rated at welterweight by any sanctioning body (on May 1st), he's not in boxing atm.
Like I said it's sad, because he's a great fighter, but clearly he doesn't give a fuck anymore about boxing.
