          Does it matter? They're big, 27 years old and African-Americans. Pacquiao is fjdbdbv'ed.

              Domain must be right, Roach has FAR less experience training world level fighters. Hell WHAT IS ROACH THINKING? putting two sparring partners the same size as his next opponent in the ring with him. tsk.

                They will hurt pacman especially since Roach offers 10 grand to the guy who can put pacman on his ass in sparring.
                Thats the whole damn point domain. In fact i hope Roach doubles his ****ing offer to any of Pac's sparring partners to knock his ass down. This aint no game. Pac needs to be able to fight seriously bigger dudes to even stand a chance against oscar so its better to find out sooner than later if Pac isnt able to hang.

                Here's the flipside though. How many doubters will turn into believers if we get reports late october that Pac's been knocking out all his bigger sparring partners??

                  getting knocked down in sparring might benefit pac.

                  will make him more cautious , less careless and box more.

                  it'll also get him accustomed to fighting someone of that size as well as clinching with someone of that size.

                      I was thinking along the lines of stepping up his training another level.

                      Speed advantage or not he's not going to win by trying to outbox dlh. Its just not possible. Even in his deteriorated state he was outboxing mayweather for a good 3/4 of the fight.

                      Pac's best chance lies in outworking dlh while minimizing the damage to himself.

                      I expect an even more tyson-esque performance than the Diaz fight for Pac in the dlh fight
