Has Mayweather ever been knocked down in sparring?

Why would it matter? Sparring is all controlled. If you go hard you'll get knocked down at some point. If you go light you'll probably keep vertical no matter how weak your chin is. Sparring often involves guys much bigger and smaller than yourself so it's not a true combat environment. It's just training for the sake of improvement.

I havenr heard rumours of him being dropped.
But some rumours ive heard over the years are;
Infamous story of Erik Morales landing some shots on him and Mayweather leaving the ring.
Spadafora obviously that's available to view.
Lamont Peterson breaking his rib in the Marquez camp.
Erol Spence giving him a black eye in the Guererro camp.
JLeon Love giving him problems in the Cotto Camp.
There's more I just can't remember.
And the chances are he's been dropping in sparring at some point.

Originally posted by Ryn0 View PostMayweather actually does have an official knockdown, when he broke his hand against Carlos Hernandez when his glove touched the canvas though it was because he broke his hand it was still an 'official' knockdown.
Interestingly the round after that Floyd fought as a southpaw, only time I've ever seen him do it.
Against Judah he was throwing a straight right to the body and got off balance and Judah touched him with a check right hook and Floyd's right glove touched the canvas, but it wasn't called a knockdown
