Whether that will have an effect on the outcome of the fight...not sure. But Ricky is not intimidated by Floyd. Doubt the fight will be as good as the series...but we can hope.
Floyd's intent was not to intimidate Ricky. It was to annoy Ricky. Floyd has annoyed Ricky.

You don't intimidate someone by dancing and singing in their face. You do that to aggravate the guy.

At the end of the day, all the trash-talking does is to give us internet boxing junkies something to discuss. So let's not complain about it too much.

The only thing that matters is what happens in the ring on 12/8. Whoever loses is going to be very emotionally wounded. Floyd would be anyway. And Ricky is very emotionally invested in this fight.
