    i was kind of thinking that boo boo would be a decent guy for floyd to bring into camp for some work...obviously not as one of the main guys

    boo boo is a southpaw...a tall one at 6-1...and hes pretty quick....obviously you cant really duplicate pac and his punches arent as compact as pacs...but i think it would be great for demetrius to go into a camp with a guy like floyd, a real pro, and get some work...i think floyd may even take a liking to him(no homo...no ellerbe jokes) as sort of next generation/torch passing type of thing

    any thoughts?

    I think you must be confusing him with Liberado,cause Demetrius if pretty fast. I do think agree with Valero probably being the best guy to bring in,Demetrius is to tall. Ortiz doesnt have Pacs speed although i think his power is excellent.
    Zab might be a good guy to bring in

    valero is ideal....obviously....im not talking like boo boo should be brought in to be the chief sparring partner....i know hes a bigger guy....but i think it could be mutually beneficial

    I want to say Valero... But I like the guy and Mayweather is BRUTAL against his sparring partners. Valero's got too much history with skull fractures and brain bleeding to take that kind of abuse.

    Hahah boo boo slow? are you kidding. watch his fights, hes got some speed along with decent power. I hungout with Boo Boo at a ronald hearns fight a year ago. Hes a really nice guy, my trainer use to help train him when he was really young
