Whats a bigger vulnerability? Pac to straight right hands or Floyd against southpaws?

      With all his ability with speed and defensive ability, Floyd controls the distance and angle he wants to fight. He instinctively moves half of steps or completely steps away to keep the distance that he wants to fight.

          I read it brotha.

          But it's not like he got his ass kicked despite getting hit.

          He could against Floyd, but just because he gets hit by them doesn't mean he's gonna get blown out.

          And he never got dropped by one OR shaken that much. Like Floyd did against Judah and Corley from left hands.

            Well firstly Floyd didn't get "dropped", his hand brushing the floore is hardly a "ko", secondly Pac was shaken by JMM from a big right hand, it's in the video 'Easy Work' posted a few pages back, also the gist of my point was if he's getting hit with clean right hands by Clottey then he's gonna have his work cut out when he faces Floyd, cause Floyd is ten times more accurate and ten times more faster than Clottey.

              When Mayweather beat Corrales, HBO wanted him to unify against Casamayor. a southpaw. Mayweather wanted no part of it. When Mayweather beat Jose Luis Castillo for one of the lightweight titles, his #1 contender was Stevie Johnston( a southpaw) Mayweather refused to fight him. Mayweather insisted Johnston fought a title elimination first and Stevie Johnston beat Alejandro Gonzalez he was supposed to get a shot at Mayweather but Mayweather refused. Johnston sat around a year waiting and then Mayweather insisted he fight another elimination bout. He never got his chance.

              Mayweather has only fought 4 southpaws in over forty bouts a record among all champions. Other champions like Jones Jr. and Bernard Hopkins both fought over ten each in title defenses alone.
              Why do you think Mayweather doesn't want to fight them????

              Why did Judah look alot better against Mayweather than Baldomir? Because he's a southpaw!!

              How does a fighter like Paul Spadafora beat up Mayweather in the gym? Because.....

              Mayweather's avoidence of the unorthodox stance is the most overlooked part of his career.

                  Often members over look these facts and vote for Mayweather or Pacquiao because it's what they always do. Everything has become a popularity contest.

                    Pac will be Floyd's kryptonite believe me. Otherwise he will not asked this OST if he really believed himself he can beat him. Pac already on Floyd's mind and his nerves. Subconsciously he thought he might be lost in this fight. Pac has this aura his opponents feel they already lost even before they climb in the ring.

                      Floyd has no power at all. He didn't even hurt Shane once.
