    Ben Thompson said on fighthype that Floyd has over 600 tapes of him sparring
    must be a goldmine.
    would be sick if they all went on youtube
    if he sold them a rich guy would hog them all

    Just watching the tape of a regular Floyd sparring session would make these disrespectful kids respect Floyd to the maximum. Floyd has ridiculously intense sparring.

    I wonder if Floyd makes his sparring partners wear 16 oz gloves like Pacquiao does?

    Maybe they'll get released when Floyd is done with boxing for good.

    Nah Floyd doesn't take punishment in the boxing ring.. he might not be as exciting as pac is but he sure as hell doesn't take the shots he does either..

    considering you don't know much of anything about boxing... let me educate you on why this tapes are pretty ****ing interesting to boxing fans. Floyd has sparred with tons of top top 20 fighters in every division he has been in and some above him.

    just off the top of my head I know he's sparred with:

    Demarcus Corley(fmr. WBO light welterweight Champ)
    Carlos Baldomir(Fmr. WBC Welterweight Champ)
    Zab Judah(IBF Light Welterweight Champ, Fmr. Welterweight King, and this session is what allegedly made the fight so heated)
    Lovemore N'Dou(Former IBF Light welterweight, and former IBO welterweight champ)
    Lamont Peterson(former interim WBO light welterweight champ and the guy who won a majority of the rounds against Ortiz in their draw).


    So just from those there is a deep interest amongst boxing fans to see these tapes.

    I'm sure haters would watch every single second of them and make a thread each time he got punched...interesting though.

    According to Ishe Smith, Mayweather was sparring pretty hard 2 days before the Mosley fight. I've never heard of a fighter doing that before.

    I think when he retires his team will create some sort of Blu-Ray with them.

    I have no doubt people will pay for them as has already been stated he has sparred some very good boxers, add Steve Forbes, Ishe Smith and ofcourse Spadafora to thelist Atlanta has already mentioned.

    I know he was supposed to spar Devon Alexander too but don't remember if that happened.

    Plus his work out regimes are legendary.

    Just goes to show how smart and how much of a perfectionist he is!

    Without any head gear too if I remember correctly.

    I cant remember some other fighter said Mayweathers body work was crazy and that he was going to have to do 500 sit ups per day after the experience.
