MAYWEATHER Sparring Partners: Kassim Ouma, Said Ouali... Who is Ortiz Sparring With?

[Gino Ros]

Mayweather has a couple of taller southpaws in cam. I heard Roger say that Floyd went four rounds with Kassim Ouma the other day, and a friend told me that Said Ouali will also be working with Floyd.

Kassim is faded, but is a busy southpaw. Ouali is fresher.
Ouali makes sense since he is on Mayweather Promotions, and trained by Roger.

Who else is helping Floyd prepare?

Has anyone heard who Victor Ortiz has brought in?

A busy southpaw is perfect. It'll get him usedto seeing those angles as much as possible and let Floyd practice on countering every shot.

ouali hits hard.......

Ortiz needs to hire Steve Forbes.

Floyd is probably using Corely as well.

Just because of the speed and southpaw stance.

I know for a fact his main sparring partner for Berto was Francisco "Chia" Santana. This guy: http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?hum...7716&cat=boxer

It obviously got him ready for Berto but he might need more than that for Mayweather

Thanks! I didn't know that.

Ortiz needs to hire Steve Forbes.

That used to be the go-to guy for a Mayweather fight. But the new version of Floyd is very different.

This Floyd acts more like a mini-Winky most of the time.

I take that back after reading his whole comment. Maybe the guy was the main guy or maybe he was just the main guy that Victor would name....lol

Here's what he said in response to the sparring partner question before the Berto fight:


Who have you been sparring with?

"My main sparring partner is Francisco "Chia" Santana; the others are a secret."
