Mayweather-Pacquiao eat your heart out.
Diego Maradona has donned the 10 oz. gloves for a spot of boxing training and he almost kills himself in the process. He doesn't exactly have the grace of a Muhammad Ali as he goes about keeping fit with a punching dummy (that you could argue is moving more fluidly than himself) but there's no doubt what weight class he belongs in. The 54-year-old Argentine, who is arguably the best ever to lace a pair of football boots, should have stuck to the pitch because he's not setting the world on fire with his pugilism. To be fair though he is taking the exercise seriously. So seriously, in fact, that he turns a distinctive shade of beetroot. https://youtu.be/MWCyoJcHt6w H/t to 101GreatGoalsExplore more on these topics:
