Pacquiao Sparring with... Rigondeaux?

[pacfan]

so what. a guy who is a southpaw, is shorter both in size and reach....and who despite his incredible speed and skill has been put on his ass a fair share of times. i love Rigo....but people are fooling themselves thinking he is somehow going to replicate Floyd in sparring.

Not saying he can perfectly replicate Floyd, but in terms of who's out there, I think Rigondeaux is about as good as it can get... who would you suggest that you think is better?

I think they are just trying use a guy whom most boxers, including Donaire, have hard time catching and trying to find a way to do just that, to catch a slippery eel, so to speak - a good choice for offensive training. They can get a bigger fellow for the defensive training, a good pot-shooter will do.
