I just got done watching Mayeather-Judah for the first time in a while...
Judah could really sneak in that straight left on Mayweather. When Mayweather would be aggressive he'd take a step back and shoot the left and land it often (especially early in the fight). He also landed some good counter rights (like the knockdown that wasn't ruled a knockdown). Judah looked very good in that fight WHEN he opened up.
Pacquiao is a southpaw just like Judah. Pacquiao likes to throw that lead straight left and has rapidyly improved his right hook over the years. I think he could use them weapons against Mayweather that Judah was having success with early in their fight. Pacquiao also is not afraid to throw punches. He's always full of energy and in excellent shape.
Mayweather also did a good job of solving the southpaw style. He did a good job of shooting over the south paw jab and using lead right hands. He also threw some nice left hooks to the body, the side of the body that is closer to you when facing a southpaw.
Pacquiao seems to overextend his shots a lot when he gets excited sometimes and Mayweather might be able to really make him pay for that with his fast hands and ring smarts.
But Mayweather-Judah for the first half of that fight was an extremely competitive fight and fun to watch. I see Pacquiao-Mayweather being like that but at a much higher level and Pacquiao has more to offer than Judah.
This fight is very interesting and NEEDS to happen.
Im a huge fan of Cotto, Mosley, and Marquez.
but the fight I wanna see most is Pacquiao-Mayweather.
I think Pacquiao beats him.
