    Manny should look to his last 2 victims to prepare for Floyd... Bradley and Algieri. :lol:

    Well perhaps Pacquiao should have some intense sparring sessions with Broner.... Asking Broner to come with everything he has to the sparring sessions!!

    As for PBF, it will be hard to get a similar facsimile to Pacquiao....

    Brad Solomon would be an ideal sparring partner for Pac.
    He mimics Mayweather perhaps more than any other fighter around that weight.

    Manny has to go get someone like devon or broner. As their the closest things you can find to a mayweather style.

    mayweather simply needs to spar with someone like.. Tbh i dunno. No-one is really like pac man lol

    No sparring partner is like Floyd, no one in the world is like him

    NO one will prepare Pac for someone like Floyd Mayweather, jr.

    Pacman could spar with James Toney
    Floyd could spar with southpaw Roberto Duran

    Finding sparring partners to mimic their opponents is going to be tough. I suspect they will come up with some situational drills to get thier fighters ready, and use sparring more for keeping their timing sharp.

    There are fighters that can imitate his style a bit.not saying they're anywhere near effective with their defensive stance or offensive accuracy, but there's elements of floyds fighting style that they can mimic


    I heard someone mentioned broner, first off broner would never help pacman out, but even if he did he doesn't fight anything like Mayweather at all. Broner is flat footed, stays in the pocket for way too long and doesnt put enough punches together.

    Freddie is now backing away from his "we'd destroy Mayweather" prediction and is now saying this is going to be the toughest challenge of Manny's career. It's amazing to hear him backtrack after years of incessant trash talking.

    He can get a very very very very cheap carbon copy, that's it.

    Nothing will prepare him for Floyd.

    Floyd will destroy him. :nod

    A copy of Pac is far easier to find than a copy of Floyd. :hey

    So long as Manny doesn't smash him, Rigondeaux would be great in terms of tracking the opponent down.
