This is from a mailbag at another site but spot on if u know anything about Floyd the boxer.....
Yes I do think it's a chance that Floyd will fight Spadafora. I don't have any special inside info, I just know the history and tendencies of Mayweather. Look back. When he was about to challenge Genaro Hernandez for his 1st title, many people thought it was too much too soon. Floyd fought a tall angular guy named Tony Pep, that gave him the same look Henrandez did. He handled Pep and went on to handle Hernandez. Then when he was about to fight Corrales, he took a non title fight at 135 against Emanuel Augustus. He wanted to get used to fighting a bigger man and he also wanted to see what style he should use to beat Corrales. Then he wanted to move to 147 to fight Judah, he fought Sharmba Mitchell in a showcase fight to get ready for the speedy southpaw. Floyd does not like southpaws and so he wants the LOOK. I actually think it;s smart on his behalf to fight a southpaw 1st before he gets in with Manny. That way he train for Manny for about 6 months and that will make him more comfortable. They will sell the Spadafora mach up well. Spadafora is an undefeated ex champion, he has an Italian last name and mysteriously the footage of him and Floyd sparring will appear everywhere. Some will think he has Floyd's number and that will be the sell. I actually think the fight will happen, but it's pure specualtion.
