Out of the top of my mind I think Judah, Quintana, Ortiz maybe and for the speed Ivan Calderon, who else do you think would be a good sparring partner for him?

more interestingly i want to know whose going to be pac's sparring partner.

It's not good to let Calderon spar bigger guys. He embarasses them with non stop movement, they have difficulty landing and their confidence suffers. DLH is a good example.

Valero would probably knock him out in sparring.

Sebastian Lujan, Jose Luis Castillo, Edwin Rosario (Cotto straight up swagger jacked from him), and Alfredo Angulo.

For Cotto:

Valero, Quintana, Ortiz, just keep rotating those 2, Quintana throws his punches with the same form Pac does, Valero will give similar speeds, explosiveness, output, and in and out movement, with Ortiz giving you the same type of power.

If its speed, there is amir khan.
