'Punisher' Mayweather 'annihilating' sparring partners in training ahead of Pacquiao bout

Unbeaten US boxing champion Floyd Mayweather's uncle has revealed that the boxer is 'annihilating' sparring partners in training ahead of his showdown with Filipino boxer and politician Manny Pacquiao.

Mayweather would put his unbeaten 47-0 record on the line against his long-time welterweight rival Pacquiao in Las Vegas on May 2 in a much anticipated and long awaited bout.

And the American's uncle Jeff Mayweather, has revealed that the boxer is beating up anyone foolish enough to try and take him during the sparring sessions, News.com.au reported.

Jeff said that the kids, early in camp, they don't care that he's 'Floyd Mayweather', adding that they want to prove something, insisting that they have proved something, all right, as they are getting destroyed.

Jeff revealed that Mayweather is annihilating everybody, insisting that he's a beast and this isn't the same old 'Floyd'.

Former undisputed welterweight champion Zab Judah was enlisted to help prepare Mayweather for facing left-handers. However, the experienced southpaw, who gave Mayweather a scare before losing on points in their 2006 clash, suffered a similar fate to the younger fighters.

Jeff added that everybody was just hyped because they thought Judah was going to be something different, but insisted he was worse than the other guys.

Jeff insisted that it seemed like Mayweather had something personal against Judah, adding that the undisputed champion beat the 'f***' out of him.

So, Jeff added that then Mayweather quit, letting Judah off the hook, because the American boxer has got a fight coming up and he messed his eye up.

Jeff said that it might just be Mayweather's mind, and all the 's***' the boxer's been dealing with Pacquiao over the years, adding that he has, obviously, taken that in some kind of way.
