    Can't find anything about it on their website...

    Actually, going to call total BS on this as web searches only show the earlier story as a rumour hosted on 'third world' websites and this forum. No-where else and certainly no-where credible. None of the transcript above seems to be in print anywhere.

    Didn't happen. Until proven otherwise I say once again - total BS.

    It's from an article in the sport section of the newspaper All Ghana News. My friend Kwesi is actually from Accra (although he's been living in London for seven or eight years now) read about it this morning and texted it to me.

    Wait. What?

    Jantuah is 41 and hasn't won a fight in seven years. He's the best sparring partner Floyd Mayweather can find in Vegas?

    And Judah is nearly 38 and hasn't been at the top in a decade.

    Is this the seniors tour?

    Pacquaio TKO 7.:hi:

    Jantuah isn't sparring him now he said he's done so many times in the past. Floyd WRSF10 :deal

    "It's been a very tough camp," Jantuah said of working with Mayweather.

    He didn't say "IT WAS a tough camp when I used to work with Mayweather."

    A tough camp for Floyd, as in the sparring has been tough. Jantuah is part of team Mayweather. :deal

    You read it. There's nothing in here that says Jantuah "used" to spar with Mayweather. What's he doing there if he's not sparring?

    'Jantuah, a two-time world-title challenger, has sparred countless rounds with Mayweather.

    "It's been a very tough camp," Jantuah said of working with Mayweather. "Floyd is a guy that wants to work to the best of his ability. He demands the best sparring and the strongest sparring.

    That's because it's only excerpts from the full interview. My friend sent it via text message. :deal

    Floyd isn't winning anything if he's sparring with guys older and smaller than himself ... and getting dropped, too.

    He should be sparring with fighters like Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. - younger, powerful guys who are big enough to actually reach him from the outside and the inside ... so he can't just lay there and rest on the ropes.

    Not some old guy mirroring him, like Judah.

    Mayweather is screwed. Nobody in camp to pressure him.

    Pacquiao TKO7.

    Sparring is sparring. Floyd's never been down in a real fight. Well, not a proper KD. How many time has Pacman been down? He was sleeping on his face for 10 minutes after getting clocked by an older smaller fighter. :deal

    Floyd WRSF10 :deal

    I'm sure Kofi Jantuah told Mayweather that as he folded another one of Floyd's checks in his pocket and left for the day. :lol:

    Sparring isn't sparring. All those guys could tell you that, too.

    Sparring is sparring. That's why it's called sparring. :deal

    Come May 2nd you're going to look almost as silly as your idol making these ridiculous predictions. :deal

    Floyd is going to school that stupid little block-head and then finish him off in the 10th. Take it to the bank. :deal

    Floyd WRSF10 :deal
