    According to Ishe Mayweather was beating the breaks off Omar Henry in sparring and nearly K.O'd him.

    Apparently Mayweather is in fight condition now.

    Interesting few comments over at the scene.

    That must be a little discouraging for Omar if true, also Mayweather needs to get better sparring partners if he is dominating dudes like that....

    Man this new generation of boxers suck! lol

    Mayweather seems to hit harder now. Not that I count the Ortiz KO for much.

    It's only sparring. I doubt Omar will be that discouraged. I mean, we hear stories of the main fighters getting beaten up by partners – which we consider a normal thing. So it should be no surprise that a partner should get busted up. That’s kinda’ what he’s there for.

    And that's without mentioning that sparring stories tend to be dramatised slightly.

    Why surprised? He can do that to anyone.
    When the door close and the cameras go off in that gym I bet many people get smacked the **** around. Plus he's got some middleweight power now

    I would pay to watch that session... I'm sure Floyd was going in on Henry. Henry hasn't fought in a while... Floyd is one way to shake the ring rust off.

    Apparently Floyd tapes ALL of his sparring sessions.....

    I hope he releases them when he hangs them up.

    I wonder who else he has in camp for sparring?

    Rumors are Henry accidently thumbed Mayweather, he instantly excused to mayweather, dropped his hands and Mayweather cheap shotted him thrice, while Henry was looking to Mayweather Senior. jk

    I think the most important thing is to get guys that will push you. The more you're pushed in sparring, the sharper you'll be come fight night. Mayweather needs some guys who will put a lot of pressure on him and other guys who will try to box him. Cotto is a diverse fighter. Ditto for Cotto, as Mayweather is a diverse fighter as well.

    On the site that hypes fights, sounds like Ishe and Floyd had a bit of an argument and now Ishe is considering joining Cotto's camp for the fight.

    Money May always finds a way to infiltrate his opponents camp :yep
