Money has clearly lost his marbles and thinks his upcoming superfight is against Ivan Drago in the USSR.

Floyd Mayweather is channeling the eponymous hero of the Rocky movie franchise while training for his landmark bout against Manny Pacquiao this summer. Money uploaded a video to his official instagram account of his strict training regime which shows him chopping wood with a mighty axe. It looks eerily similar to a scene from that famous montage in Rocky IV in which Sylvester Stallone trains like a lumberjack for his fight against the towering Russian Ivan Drago. You can't argue with the result, it worked out pretty well for Balboa in the end. Maybe Mayweather is on to something.
