    Maidana sparred with stevie forbes for broner fight

    How much do you think sparring with a seasoned veteran like stevie forbes who has sparred pretty much every big name fighter in boxing helped maidana for broner? Meanwhile in the all access clips broner was sparring some tatted guy who just kept following him around the ring with his hands down at his waist lol.

      Forbes has been used multiple times to help fighters prepare for Floyd.

        Was just about to post this.

        While he may not help much for preparing for Floyd, he's probably as good as it gets for preparing for Broner.

          Sparring with Forbes helps because of his defense. But he's different than Broner. And at the same time, Forbes isn't the same fighter he used to be. Broner sparred more fighters than what they showed on All Access and YouTube. Let's not downplay his sparring, because he worked hard for the fight. He just had the wrong game plan and has mistakes he needs to fix in his game. That's all.
