    Sergio beats Mayweather and Mayweather beats Pac imo. So I would say yes.

    The mere thought of Floyd fighting Sergio would make him **** even when he's on top of miss Jackson playing Ellerbe's ****. Floyd would never entertain that fight. :deal:deal:deal

    Khan will be next. It'll get hyped ridiculously, and Mayweather will have another easy night, while making 40 million.

    Do you think the sparring vid was a fluke though?
    I heard Mayweather was out of shape and Spadafora was close to an upcoming fight. Spadafora did get the better of May, I watched the entire session and he is like a south paw Floyd.. amazing defense and reflexes.

    Sergio is extremely dangerous because of his unorthodox style.. May is technically the best. It's a matter of baiting Martinez into his fight.

    It's sparring. Sparring isn't a real fight.

    If you want to talk common opponents we can, they had 2:

    Angel Manfredy - Floyd TKO 2, Spadafora a very close UD (and you could argue it was a faded Manfredy at that point).

    Victoriano Sosa - Floyd dominated him, Spadaforda again a close UD (but 2 years earlier, so there's that)

    Those were also arguably Paul's 2 best wins (3rd being Rodney Jones, who wasn't actually that good). Those wins don't make the top 10 of Floyd's resume, and you could argue don't make the top 15... not take too much away from Sosa or Manfredy, both were good fighters.. but that's the best Paul beat.

    He also drew against Dorin, which to be honest was a damned robbery.. Dorin won that fight, and he went on to get destroyed by a body shot by Gatti just 11months prior to Gatti getting made into a punching bag by Floyd.

    Take that for what it's worth, but no way Spadafora ever beats Floyd, prime or now.

    I'll take your word for it.. I just brought up his name because I heard Floyd was close to fighting Spadafora as a tune up for Manny before signing on to fight Ortiz and because of the Sparring vids. I understand it's just sparring but usually Floyd chews up sparring partners and spits them out, sometimes multiple sparring partners. Plus Spadafora is an undefeated fighter.. but then again so is Chavez Jr.
