The real question is: "How Smart are these guys?"
This could be a McGregor orchestrated distraction, as choreographed as synchronized swimming. Maybe McGregor is prepared, maybe not. This 'distraction' sends completely mixed messages.
This could be orchestrated by Mayweather, maybe simply a Spy in the camp. Did Mayweather get Pualie to spar and report back?
Who's the puppet-master behind this?
Or is this just childish behaviour across the board?
You just blew my mind with the Pualie sparring conspiracy 👀
I don't want to say 'conspiracy'. I'm just saying that the fight plan is important. By providing false, misleading information to one fighter may help the other fighter. This is part of the preparation before the fight.
@goldkey Floyd Mayweather actually referenced The Art of War by Sun Tzu in one interview after the Pacquiao fight and the question was raised as someone who sparred pacman a few years before the fight was in the TMT gym.
If you actually analyze Floyd, he actually incorporates the 48 laws of power too. Don't be fooled when they say this man can't read.
These guys are extremely smart
Yes, the Art of War references providing information to spies and also misinformation to opponent spies. This is exactly what I was thinking about. . .
