    According to Roach, Manny will be sparring with Kenneth Sims Jr. (5-0, 2 KOs) and Rashidi Ellis (13-0, 10 KOs) for the Mayweather fight.

    Please enlighten us who those two fighters are, if ever some of you know them.

    Awful sparring partners. They're fast, but fight nothing like floyd. Both are very offensive and more like a rugged devon alexander. I hate it. I'm so mad. Ronnie Austion was perfect. He would make easy, easy work of both of them.

    I'm sure with the proper instructions they can help Manny do drills that will get him ready to fight Mayweather. Even if they don't have Mayweather's style they can do an impression, a weaker version of his techniques. I don't think you want a super destroyer top of the division type guy to spar with anyway. Those type of guys might bang you up and damage you for your fight.

    Ronnie Austion would make easy work of Adrien Broner, did make easy work of Lydell Rhodes and Shawn Porter. The dude is going to be huge one day. He doesn't just imitate Floyd's style.. he IS Floyd's style. No one could prepare Manny better than this kid.

    That's how floydjoys auto list him as the winner in every matchup. Easy work, why even bother actually fighting right? Easy work!

    These partners are a joke. A joke. I'm so mad about it.

    Watch Ronnie then watch Rashidi. Pacquiao is going to eat this kid up, and it won't even be funny. It's only going to be sad. I hope it won't give Pac a false sense of comfort about Floyd when he does because this kid SUCKS and is nothing like Floyd.

    And I can't find anything on Kenneth Jims Jr that's not 5 years ago soo. Those old vids shows he sucks too.

    Both of these fighters are not defensive oriented at all. They stand straight in front of you and just slug it out like the amateurs they are. It won't be a sparring session. It's going to be a murder session with Pacquiao that won't help him in the slightest.

    Freddie just...I'm praying that you know what you're doing or just lying to us because if these are the sparring partners, Pacquiao is going to lose since these guys won't prepare him AT ALLLLLLLLL.
