    They should spar with Floyd. You win on points in the Olympics.

    This will coincide with Pac's training for Marquez fight. Roach's plan is to let these young fighters experience a sparring against his elite fighters. Roach is currently assisting US Boxing Coach for this upcoming 2012 Olympics. :thumbsup

    Well hopefully Pac and Amir don't regress fighting such a low level of opposition. They need to get Russia and Cuban amateurs in there.

    It will be all good if Pacquiao spars with Filipino Olympic boxers too and Amir with British or Pak!stani Olympic boxers.

    It's odd if a Pinoy and Brit-Pak!stani boxer solely helping the US Olympic boxing team.

    Lets see if one of those guys can get a Gold Medal at this time.

    Team 2008 really sucked and was the worst US Olympic Boxing Team ever!
