    I heard that Floyd was blasting him for at least 2 rounds before what
    was on tape - but I did hear that on ESB, so it couldve been just
    a Floyd nut hugger.

    Mayweather looked exhausted at the end.

    But sparring is sparring, you work on what you need to.

    exactly and at one point Floyd even switched south paw to work on lead right uppercuts on him. It's "sparring" and people use it as an example of "floyd losing" :lol:

    what are you talking about? pac would have made that guy drop 20 pounds before he would have even thought about sparring him.

    btw cheers for posting the video philla.

    Nonsense. All 6 of their rounds are on tape and all 6 of them are on youtube. Mayweather didn't "blast" Spadafora in any round. Mayweather himself ADMITTED that he lost every round of sparring against Spadafora years ago on ESPN FNF... then went on to refer to Spaddy as a "gym champion" and said that it would be different under the big lights. Well... of course Floyd would say that but either way... Spadafora without a doubt thoroughly outboxed Mayweather over those 6 rounds.

    Also... nobody should ever buy into the bull**** about "Floyd was out of shape". Anyone who has followed boxing even slightly over Mayweather's career knows that the man lives in the gym, and is NEVER out of shape. Especially for a 6 round sparring session. That is complete nonsense. Also.. it wasn't a "work on what you gotta work on" type of sparring session. Mayweather and his team actually came into the gym running their mouths about Spadafora and challenging him to this sparring session. They went in there to beat each other.

    Sparring is not the same as fighting.
    In sparring , you are working on something.
    It maybe your toughness in getter your partner to attack your body or infighting skills.
    It may be countering some one with speed.
    Those with knowledge understand this.
    Those without are most like to regurgitate stupid comments as we often see on this website.

    Floyd and Pac both weighed 106 pounds when they were 16 years old. Floyd is a larger than Pac right now as we speak. Explain to me how this means that Pac is on roids and that Floyd is clean?
