    Yeah Floyd just has a bruise. Worse than what I expected when I first heard about it, but nothing like it's being made out to be.

    Surprised there hasn't been a thread on this (at least I don't think so - I did have a quick look on the first few pages). Ruben Guerrero, over on the scene, has been told by his sources that Mayweather has been getting beaten up in sparring. He pointed out Mayweather having a black eye in his recent media workout showing. He appears to be right about the black eye. Forward to 21:30, and if you look closely, you'll notice his right side bruised up a bit.

    :lol::rofl:patsch

    Means he is doing some actual hard sparring and preparing for the fight. He is a Boxer. They get black eyes. You will get hit on occasion. Might be the worst thread I have ever seen on here :lol::rofl

    Could mean nothing, most likely is nothing. But Floyd is expected not to get hit that flush in headgear and 16oz gloves. Getting marked up from sparring is common, but not that common. Don't remember Cotto or Marquez or Pacquiao or the Klitschkos getting visibly marked up from sparring with lasting effects.

    Also, if it's on his right side, it was definitely a left straight.

    Floyd is human. It may affect his confidence.

    It's a black eye. No denying it.

    On the bright side, it wasn't too long ago when Wlad Klitschko had a black eye, but at the same time, who was Wlad fighting?

    I'm not saying Guerrero is a great fighter, but he's not a bum either.

    Floyd is getting older. The body takes longer to heal as you age. It's the bad thing about aging.

    I know Marquez managed to stop aging, despite looking like **** against Kastidis, by eating his own ****, drinking his ****, having cups stuck up his ass, but Marquez is inhuman.

    He can do that ****. He can absorb a concussion and a broken nose at the age of 39, despite having been through several beatings in his career.

    He is a monster.

    Floyd, he is human. Floyd ages like the rest of us. But at the end of the day, he'll probably be alright.

    Hopefully, his sparring partners aren't whupping has ass though. That WILL hurt his confidence.

    Wlad had a black eye he sustained in training for his last fight I believe.

    And if it was Errol Spence that did that to Mayweather, be concerned, that guy is no world beater.

    People are so used to seeing a Floyd with a clean face.

    Just checked, I think it was Vitali. He's no spring chicken anymore himself.

    Spence is an Olympian and one of the best American prospects. He's a damn good up and comer.
