IMO one of the biggest things in Baldomir's favor is he doesnt take anything for granted...He isn't worried about looking good,,Impressing critics,,,Playing the I am greater than you game like Floyd....He just wants to go out and fight....Worrying about being impressive can throw a fighters psyche off.....We all know that Floyd is faster,,more skilled,,but Baldo is just meat and potatoes and sometimes thats better than a six course spread if you know what i mean...
I wont say Floyd loses to Baldo but he may underestimate him and have a harder night than he realized going in...
Baldo may have spent a lot of his career in South America against guys we know nothing about but those guys down there are tough...Many of those guys fight because they have to not want to....When you fight to put bread and butter on the table for your kids you would be suprised how hard you will fight.....This is the mentality of Baldomir.....As we all seen he doesnt get hurt easy....IMO Zab hits harder than Floyd at 147 and Carlos wasn't fazed.Gatti was like an annoying fly to him.....If Mayweather comes in thinking this is another Gatti and is there just to show how great he is and put on a show he will be sadly mistaken....This guy is serious..BALDO IS THERE TO FIGHT
