    Contrary to popular belief on ESB that Pac doesn't fight African American fighters, Pac's had Steve Forbes, Deontay Wilder, Shawn Porter and most recently, Joshua Clottey as sparring mates.

    He's also used Jose Luis Castillo for his fight against Cotto.

    Given that there's possibly 25-40 mil to be made in this fight against Mayweather, would it be wise for him to keep using these guys or hire better sparring mates and pay them good money (since he can afford it).

    I'm thinking Joan Guzman for all his flaws would be an excellent sparring partner to help prepare against Floyd.

    Who would you think would help Pac to prepare for Floyd's style?

    Khan's speed is surely going to help.

    Khan's Jab and speed will help Pacquiao. Porter's size, speed and strength will help also.

    Pac is really lucky to have those quality sparring partners. A little bit more tweaking on the game plan and Pac will shock the *****s.

    I like forbes and khan combination. Forbes defensive style and khan fast hands should really help pacquiao prepare for this fight.

    It's almost impossible to immitate Floyds style, but knowing Roach he'll have studied Mayweathers fights to death and will set the sparring partners up accordingly.

    I'm sure there's an interview where he says something like "Every fighter has their bad habits, the same move in certain situations, I know Floyds".

    I think a combination of the pad work and getting a sparring partner to replicate whatever 'move' it is Floyd does that exposes him (even if I can't really see one).

    Like VB said the combination of Forbes and Khan will help bigtime.

    Khan, Porter, Forbes, Castillo, Clottey and other boxers combined together can give Pacquiao enough preparation for a Floyd fight.

    Nacho alone is enough help already. :lol:

    How about Floyd's sparring partners, can they simulate Pacquiao's fighting style? ;)
