    well both pretty much said that Pac will use Khan as his #1 guy and that Floyd will use Zab, but IDK if its his #1 guy. He still may not get him since it sounds like Zab will want alot of money to do it and I know Floyd wont want to pay him much

      Freddie Roach cantacted Andre Berto's team.

      Mayweather is with Zab.

      Who else they could get? I'm not sure.

        I doubt Berto would spar for Pac but maybe. I think Pac should get Forbes & Porter to go along with Khan. Floyd should use Zab, Collazo, and Lattimore

          Andre Berto sounds good for Pac that would help him out..

          I think Mayweather should look at Martinez for Power, Speed, and southpaw stance..Martinez showed GREAT right hooks in the Williams fight..only thing is..Martinez is like 5'11 and Pacquiao is about 5'6..that would be a lil confusing

            Nah, I dont think Martinez has anything in common with Pac except both being Southpaws. I also dont think he would be a sparring partner to anyone unless possibly there was major money involved and I know Floyd wont do that

              khan is insufficient sparring for pac. he is too stationary. maybe for speed. pac needs someone who is constantly moving.

              For Fraudulent jr., his perfect sparring partner would be edwin valero. 2nd best would be victor ortiz.

                You could be right...

                but other than Zab..I can't think of anyone else..

                I know Cotto should have gotten Calderon and Zab..he would've been a lil better prepared..

                  I like Lattimore. I think he's a good choice

                    Khan is great because of his size and speed, and his jab.

                    I'd suggest Guzman but he's been looking slower as of late
