    Because he gets his ass whoop by black fighters, thats why he choose to fight small slow fighters like guerrero to look good

    A couple of times he's had a couple of fighters who held their own and roughed him up which makes an egotistical mofo like Floyd get embarrassed and angry.

    Why should he? Outside of personal recording to see how hes looking and to study, why should he let others film him?

    Sometimes **** happens in sparring, and for someone like Floyd, if he winds up getting caught n momentarily hurt, or if he has a bad sparring session, he never hears the end of it (example? Spaddy has a good session and Floyd has a bad one, and for a decade after people are talking about how Spaddy beat up Floyd in sparring ect, ect, ect)


    That being said, he does sometimes allow it.

    We got to see him vs Omar Henry, that was a good session.

    because

    1. he is undefeated and when he gets back into his training camps he is taking on bigger guys who are prob primed and ready to go for there next fights so naturally floyd does not look half as good

    2. he does not want anyone studying him

    Exactly. With a fight of this magnitude or any fight really, why give your opponent and their camp insight into your strategy or how you're fairing against sparring partners? Freddie Roach would allow clips of Pacquiao wrecking sparring partners on 24/7... but I think that was to get in the other fighters head. Roach damn sure wasn't showing any sessions where sparring partners were getting the best of Manny to show Pacquiao's defensive liabilities.
