    Has Mayweather ever been knocked down in sparring?

    He's never been officially knocked down in a fight which is remarkable, but he's had countless sparring sessions spanning decades, surely he's been hurt or knocked down bad at least once?

    I know this thread is going to get a lot of sensitive responses from the usual suspects who will start crying but I'm just interested if anyone has any rumours/stories that are solid

        Mayweather actually does have an official knockdown, when he broke his hand against Carlos Hernandez when his glove touched the canvas though it was because he broke his hand it was still an 'official' knockdown.

        Interestingly the round after that Floyd fought as a southpaw, only time I've ever seen him do it.

                    I don't know if he was knocked down but I heard fresh out jail Floyd was getting his ass handed to him while training for the Guerrero fight.

                    He even went into the fight with a black eye.

                    But I'm pretty sure he has before doe.
