    Am I the only one that questions Shane's choices of sparring partners?

    I mean I know he has a good relationship with these two guys but why is he using them as sparring partners for his biggest fight since DelaHoya 1 and Forrest II? It doesn't make sense.

    And I hear Floyd is sparring with Tim Bradley.

        I dont know about the Bradley thing.

        But I do wonder what kind of work Shane will be getting.

              i doubt they're going to reveal everything about camp, why would they?

              i think it's safe to say that mosley and richardson are capable of figuring out that rocky allen isn't exactly an ideal sparring partner to prepare for floyd.

                Mosley's new found "brotherhood" will be his downfall.

                Seriously, it's almost as if he's apart of some cult and refuses to spar with anyone "worldly".

                  Well i too am very concerned about his sparring partners, especially considering the magnitude of this fight. I don't understand it tbh unless naz has guys secretly coming in for sessions. I know you dont have to have world class sparring partners but those guys in his camp are nowhere near floyds level not to mention that shane knows them inside out already anyway, it just cant see how they are benefitting his training. I just hope im wrong and the sparring partners dont become a factor if he loses the fight. I know floyd is sparring steve frobes and zab judah but i not sure about bradley though.
