    The Myth That Floyd Mayweather Has Trouble With SouthPaws

    Whats up with the MYTH that Mayweather has trouble with southpaws?

    Floyd Mayweather vs DEMARCUS CORLEY

    Mayweather Landed 47% of his 50 punches per round and 53% of his power shots.

    Mayweather Outlanded Corley 283-150 in total punches.

    Mayweather Dropped Corley in 8th & 10th rounds, landing 28 power shots in 8th & 34 in 10th.

    OH and Mayweather shoulder rolled all night on Corley...

    8th & 10th rounds...problems with southpaws?



    Mayweather Finished strong, outlanding Corley 120-44 in power shots over last 5 rounds.

    Scoring: 119-107; 118-108; 119-108


    Floyd Mayweather vs Zab Judah

    Mayweather dropped first 2 rounds on 2 cards after getting outlanded 11-5 in power shots in opening 6 minutes. Start of round 3 All Floyd from then on, as he outlanded Judah 153-53 in power shots, including 28-2 in the 9th. Floyd played some “D” as well, as Judah landed in single digits in total connects in 10 of 12 rounds.

    Rounds 7,8 & 9..Utter dominance



    Overall, Mayweather landed 205 of 441 (46%) total punches to 89 of 485 (18%) for Zab.

    Floyd also landed 158 of 322 (49%) power shots to 64 of 177 (36%) for Judah, who managed to land just 25 of 308 jabs (8%).

    Scoring: 116-112; 117-111; 119-109.

    Floyd Mayweather vs SHARMBA MITCHELL

    Mayweather outlanded the overmatched Mitchell 85-31 in total punches after outlanding Gatti 168-41. More impressive than Mayweather’s accuracy (43% of his power shots) was his defense, as Mitchell landed just 11% of his total punches. Mitchell landed 31 punches in less than six rounds- an average of just 5 per round




    ..............Mitchell down once in Round 3 and KO'd on a body shot in Round 6.

        By his high standards, he does have a little trouble getting to grips with southpaws. Chop Chop and Zab both gave him something to think about early but all great fighters adjust.

            Floyd doesn't have problems with southpaws. He has problems with guys who are faster(handspeed) than he is.

            Zab Judah is the only significant fighter who had more hand speed than him. Floyd was getting beat to the punch throughout the entire first half. Floyd adjusted accordingly and pot shot(which neutralizes hand speed) Zab who is a major headcase and is a technical style boxer.

            The way you beat Floyd is two ways.... Pacquiao's style or Relentless pressure/high workrate (PWill or Marg).

            If you try to box Floyd, your going to lose. Period.

                    JUDAH DROOPED MAYWEATHER also.

                    And only God knows what would happen with FROID JR. if ROGER "GRACIE " MAYWEATHER jump in ring and almost choke JUDAH to death!
