Warms the heart.
Floyd 'Money' Mayweather is gearing up for the fight of his life, against Manny Pacquiao, in a world title decider, next month. The Money camp has released this fascinating behind-the-scenes video of Mayweather as he prepares for the bout. In it, Mayweather trains his neck muscles in some sort of medieval device:
He keeps to a strict diet but he allows himself 'a snack day' every now and then.
As Chef Q proclaims, 'When they see us in the supermarket they say "Oh oh, here comes Team Money".'
The most revealing insight comes from Obi Okeke, who tells of a late-night phone call he received from Mayweather.
'Floyd rang me at 3am, one night,' Okeke comments, 'and says "I want a Bugatti in my driveway in 12 hours." It pushes me a little harder and makes me a better person.'
