    lmao, that's funny......everybody in mayweathers' camp is like on his ****,
    and i bet you nobody could tell floyd he is doing something wrong,
    he is dedicated what good does it make if you don't let other
    people guide you, i bet you mayweather sr. would do a better job training
    floyd than uncle roger, why? simply cuz he knows mayweathers' weaknesses,
    more than roger and would tell him straight-up what he is doing wrong and i guess floyd don't want to hear that

      Floyd's sparring partners are Anthony Thompson and Kofi Jantuah. Here is what I wrote about it a few weeks ago.
      ----------------------------------



      I was really worried about this fight for Floyd but this is making me much less worried. I know those guys arent Oscar and I know its not like having Mosley for a partner but I do think those are some pretty high level guys to spar with and could definatly get him adjusted to the weight. Jantuah is like a monster with his strength & power while Anthony Thompson is a little like Zab. He may not be the best but he's easily physicaly one of the most gifted guys out there when you talk about a combo of speed & power. I think they will really do a good job of helping Floyd prepare for Oscar and now Im less worried

          Mosley can only get Delahoya prepared for handspeed. Other than that Mosley has been very easy to hit by alot of his opponents so I don't see how having a fighter like that to spar with will help Delahoya against a guy who isn't easy to hit in Mayweather.

              he is better sparring with calderon for floyd's style than shane, because ivan is a tremendous boxer, with amazing speed, but even that won't matter, seeing as floyd is just too smart for oscar, and that's where it counts.
