    Nothing is going to help Druguiao beat Money May and his camp knows this which is why they are stalling and engineering more excuses than a politician.

    Joan Guzman and Timothy Bradley would be good sparring partners

    I posted an article the other day about how alphabet titles can lie. To win the lightweight belt he beat the number three guy, to win welter belt he beat the number 2 guy and further down the list i think flyweight was the number 5? guy and super feather was number 3 guy i think. I think only when he beat Morales or barrera he actually beat the number one guy in the division.

    Those who say Pacquiao didn't fight African Americans are idiots and clueless ignorant fools. It's not Pacquiao's problem Mexicans dominated the lower weight divisions. Mayweather didn't exactly fight enough African Americans in the lower weights as he was rising either. African Americans seem to do good from 140+, most of the lower weights were Mexican dominated for a long time anyway that I find it stupid people keep bringing this up when it's TOO obvious.

    About the sparring, BOTH Mayweather and Pacquiao will find it difficult to find anyone to help here. When it comes to two special opponents like these both need to rely on their natural special abilities mentally and physically in the ring to overcome one another, that's why people demand this fight. There's no one either guy can hire(expensive or not) to give a proper imitation.

    Stevie would probably be the best to gain insight given his relationship with team mayweather. but it's not about who he gets in sparring to emulate Floyd b/c no one can really do that. It's just about preparing with HIGH LEVEL partners to get in the best physical and mental condition to prepare for Floyd. Floyd will have the same problem. They can't find a fighter or partner to emulate Manny.

    Mayweather will spar a lot with Zab Judah I'm guessing.

    Mayweather will be sparring with Judah, Alexander, Forbes and probably Ishe Smith again.

    Manny should get the best quality sparring partners he can find. Guys like Shawn Porter aren't going to cut it.

    Sparring guys and actually fighting them are two different things. And Clottey is not African-American, he's straight up African.
