    Pac is practicing how to escape grapling technique Floyd will employ on May 2nd.

      They will for a few rounds. He will be getting lumped up by round 4.

        Sparring is not the same as a fight, but **** preparation is likely to lead to **** performance in the actual fight.

        The guy that everyone seems so excited about Pacquiao sparring has lost 13 of his last 15 pro fights who doesn't even fight much like Floyd
        (was able to find and watch Tapia vs Johnson, from 2012, and he does a half decent job of showing a high-guard defense, along the lines of what Floyd ended up adjusting to when he fought Judah, so there's that.

        )

        If he's expecting Floyd to be anything like this guy (a guy, mind you, whom he's just beginning to look good against with less than a month to the fight), Pacquiao's in for a rude awakening.

          Pac is getting great sparring. That kid Sims is very good. By May 2nd Pac is going to be at his best. We all know mayweather will be as well.

          Less than a month to go! I still think pac wins by UD. Pac awkwardness, movement and stamina will be the main difference. He will keep mayweather in defense mode and outpoint him.

            It is not about beating up someone and thought that's your perception of it...it's about working with specifics and isolation with specifics. Obviously you already have a PRE-JUDGEMENT of Pac's limitations and no matter what it will not suffice you.

            This is when it will come to shock many of Mayweather's fans that he is deemed as "infallible"...
            So Pac is preparing for take downs and grappling, or his standing up game.... or is just leg kicks?

              Keep your attention on the "sore leg" reference. The set up for the loss is upon us. May 2nd it will be revealed.

                Good, even if Im a Floyd fan I hope Pac will be in good shape on May 2, I know Floyd will be, and I want a good fight.

                  Its hilarious mayweather fans always exaggerate and are very selective when it comes to commenting on pacquiao. The article said he sparred with dierry jean, Kenneth SIMMs, and the ufc guy and all mayweather fans can say is pacquiao is In over his head because of the ufc guy. That's just like pacquiao fans saying pacquiao is going to demolish mayweather because he has dierry jean who is a top light welter and Kenneth SIMMs who is a mayweather replica. Sounds kind of dumb right? Overall pacquiao has the better sparring partners and although I've never seen this ufc guy, I doubt Manny would be sparring him if he didn't have any skills

                    I hope more and more active and former fighters and trainers keep stacking the odds against Manny, the more people doubt his capabilities to win the more that dude get motivated and annihilate his opponents. Keep em coming y'all. I just hope I hear no excuses from these so called boxing fans that only follow and adore one particular fighter.

                      Damn if that's true. If this is the first guy Pacquiao is looking good against then he's in trouble. When they brought in better sparring partners last week I heard Manny wasn't looking too good.
