    Why do you think Floyd doesn't allow taping of sparring?

    Anyone have any idea why he doesn't allow any recording of him?

    We've seen 39 of his fights...I don't know what he could be hiding from us...

        Just one of those psychological things that various fighters seem to have.

        Perhaps it's a ritual of his and he think if he allowed the footage to be shown that it would somehow compromise his efforts in the ring.

        Who know, really?

        Personally I think he's not even sparring ; I think he sends the cameras away, kicks back, sips Kool Aid with Senior, and eats potato chips with Roger.

              I think that was staged.

              It's not Floyd's M.O. to bust anybody up, let alone a sparring partner.

                BTW ; the "blood" looked more like Kool Aid to me.

                Which leads me back to my original theory.

                All we gotta do is catch his ass with some chip crumbs in his teeth and his ass is busted.

                    i've always thought its cause he doesnt want his opponents/fans/haters to see vids of him not looking sharp and on game ...
