    I wouldn't be surprised if he hurt little pac...he must have like 20-30 pounds advantage, and he's pretty fast for his size, and powerful.

    Roach offering sparring partners 1g for the KO is ******ed, imo. Some mofos would kill for half that...

    that's the way a fighter can get hurt in training camp.
    It is actually smart. They are wearing 16 ounce gloves and headgear. Young fighters especially would be just in there not going out as most of the time, they are fighting someone they admire and even if they think they can hurt them, they won't.

        You can still get hurt with headgear and 16's. We got guys in my gym that come and go all the time due to sparring injuries. Granted, pac is a champion and consummate professional, but he can still be hurt. Say porter slams him with a body shot, flush. 16's 14's 12's..it doesn't make much of a difference if its a thunderous shot to the ribs.

        And... while it is true these fighters probably respect, and look up to Pac, that won't stop them from trying to tear his head off. That's boxing.

        Especially with a freaking financial incentive in place...

        In a way, the fiercer your go at someone, the more you respect them, anyway. Whereas if one just goes partial effort, its almost like a show of disrespect. Like they aren't worthy of your full strength, type of thing.

        Marvelously risky move by Roach...I hope it pays off and doesn't blow up in his face

          Which happened when Mike was ****ing off and cared about partying more then training. Which led to him losing to someone he should have killed in 2 rounds.

              Hopefully he'll push it harder in training.

                lol, not surprised at all. i've been saying it all along, pacquiao has not felt the power of a natural welterweight that's still somewhere around his prime. i honestly can't believe some people say he'll actually KO cotto, lol. it will be ugly and it will be painful for pacquiao.

                cotto is no sparring partner, cotto is no joke.
