    Floyd main sparring partners for Victor is Kassim Ouma, Deandre Latimore and Sechew Powell.

    Victor main sparring partners for Floyd is Eddie Gomez and Karl Dargan.

    Which team sparring partners is

    a) give the best work

    b) emulate the opposing side style

    Fun little fact - Ouma has 8 losses and Gomez is 18 years old.

    Ouma, Latimore, and Powell may be southpaws but they don't have much in common with Ortiz outside of that. Still they aren't bad selections.

    They're big southpaws though, so that helps

    On 24/7 Floyd destroyed a guys nose. Who was he (he said that it was mexican blood and looked like he was very proud of taking punishment)

    Floyd's are better... owing to the fact that he's a much harder worker and he has a lot more money to throw around on sparring partners.

    floyd's sparring partners are more seasoned fighters... not sure if those guys are able to emulate ortiz's style though.

    Floyd has also used Steve Forbes in the past...

    Floyd is sparring some great talent like Latimore, Ouma and Powell.

    Ortiz waits for Danny Garcia to pull up in his Doritos truck @ 6pm.

    Back in the day maybe, Ouma has been done for years now.
