He’s the most rapidly improving fighter on the planet.” – Dino Duva, Promoter
* “Had this been a year ago, many of the combinations would have caught Taylor flush, but he has improved so much under the watchful eye of trainer Tommy Yankello that many were slipped or bounced off his gloves.” – Kurt Wolfheimer, Fightnews.com

<boxer>006517</boxer>
'''Trainer:''' [[Tom Yankello]] (2009)
* '''[[:Category:Paul Spadafora Gallery|Paul Spadafora Gallery]]'''

== Career ==

Spadafora won the [[IBF]] lightweight title in the summer of 1999. Although an underdog in the fight, he won thouroughly. He defended his IBF title eight times. He had a famous sparring session with [[Floyd Mayweather Jr.]] in 1999 in which he dominated Floyd in training. Mayweather himself has acknowledged this but claims to have been out of shape.

== Legal Troubles ==

On February 23, 2005, Spadafora was sentenced to 21 to 60 months in prison for shooting his girlfriend in the stomach in August 2004. Spadafora was paroled in April 2006 after spending 13 months in prison and a boot camp.

On May 30, 2007, Spadafora returned to prison for violating his parole and was given a 21 month to five year prison sentence. In August 2007, Spadafora was ordered to be released from prison, as there was not enough evidence available to continue with parole violation proceedings.

He’s the most rapidly improving fighter on the planet.” – Dino Duva, Promoter
