    Any idea on who the other four are?

    From the scene where there is boxing



    “Floyd’s just being Floyd,” Roger would tell me. “Aint much changed. Aint much changed in the boxing or sparring. He’s just putting in work.”
    Floyd has been a professional for nearly 15 years and has been in bigger fights than the Ortiz duel. Asked if the preparation for the dangerous southpaw has seen them do anything special, Roger played such thoughts down.
    “Well we’re not really working on nothing. What Floyd has to do, nobody knows. Floyd knows what he’s got to do anyways. He can adapt; the whole object of boxing is to learn how to adapt,” Roger continued.
    Floyd started camp on July 18th and still has several core weeks left until the fight goes down. I asked him if Floyd had begun sparring by this point.
    “Yeah, he’s sparring. He’s sparring that one kid, what’s his name? Kassim Ouma,” he stated.
    Outside of the 32-year old Ouma, a seasoned and proven veteran in his own right, Roger confirmed that Floyd had been working with four other partners. I asked him if Lil’ Floyd has been putting a beating on them and his response was simple.
    “Oh yeah, he is,” Roger replied.

    Said Ouali is probably sparring with him as well.

    [/quote]it is true. At this point Floyd doesn't need much advice on what to do in training.

    She's not being used. She has a glass jaw, goes down off a slap and then has to be taken out on a stretcher. She doesn't have enough heart to be apart of Mayweather's camp.

    Floyd beatin on them sparring partners got these Ortiz fans scared...

    can only imagine how the *******s gonna downplay this one...

    I believe it too..I think Floyd is going into a beast mode on this fight..

    I think he has the urge and is probably doing some utterly ridiculous workouts, even for a boxer!

    what happens in sparring and the rumors are just that-rumors. There are times when guys look great in sparring and fight terrible in the fight and the other way around.

    I agree, rumors like this are cool if you're a diehard fan but until the fight comes and Floyd demolishes Ortiz then its nothing more than a good story to read on Saturday

    I sort of disagree. If you hear about an older, inactive fighter getting beat up in sparring, he's ****ed.

    So basically Floyd is training himself while Roger watches

    I don't know who his sparring partners could be, probably Corley or some ****

    But is he using them before or after sparring...that, I think, is the question.
