    Pacquiao struggles against Orthodox fighters who have a good Straight Right!!

    we all know Miguel Cotto and Oscar De La Hoya are natural lefties who converted to southpaw, meaning they write with their left hand, eat with their left hand, and basicly do everything with their left hand, its their main hand... their left hand is the most powerful weapon, neither of these guys had a good straight right hand like Marquez or Morales did..but they (Oscar and cotto) had very good left hooks, left jab, etc.

    And for the record even Barrera was a natural lefty who fights orthodox..these are facts just look them up.

    Pacquiao also lost to Erik Morales and Juan Manuel Marquez (Not on paper but in most opinions) who were Orthodox fighters and had a good straight right hands, and counter punched Pacquiao with it..!

    Conclusion: Pacquiao has trouble with natural orthodox fighter who can counter punch and have a good straight right hand. Morales and Marquez had a 'good' straight right hand and were 'good' counter punchers...there is a certain fighter i know who has a 'Great' straight right hand, who is a 'great' counter puncher, who is fast if not faster than Manny...who is the most accurate puncher in boxing.

    Not only pacquiao but most southpaws struggle against a decent straight right hand, but pacquiao has been beaten with it against Morales and JMM...Pacquiao has looked good in his recent fights because Freddie roach is a genius...he picked the right fights.



    That is all

        saying clottey and (orthodox fighters) trouble pacman.. is like saying judah and (southpaw fighters) trouble floyd...

        i believe both to be the case but not to the extreme some of us are putting it to be.

          Too bad Floyd would rather talk about tests rather than prove it in the ring.

          Floyd "woulda, coulda, shoulda" Mayweather

                the thing is judah won 3 or 4 rounds at BEST because floyd adapted, pacquiao even though he is a great fighter, he is not good at adapting lets be honest, he lost past prime morales because morales was hitting him with straight rights at will, he lost to marquez in that second fight, nonito donaire and ronnie nathanielz also scored it for marquez, because marquez and morales were counter punching with straight right hands.

                  he doesn't put up his punches together; combinations.

                  he hasn't got a great workrate, but he makes up for it because of his accuracy, its about punches landed, not thrown..to the judges atleast.

                    Judah won 3 or 4 rounds at best, which is true. Also true is, Clottey won 0 rounds. Pacquiao can't adapt? He did have trouble with Marquez, but Marquez in his fights with pacquiao was a menace. Manny fought different fights from de la hoya (hit and not be hit-lead left)/hatton (Domination-right/left hooks)/cotto (destruction-showed his power/ability to take power)/clottey (went to the body, had clottey ****ting his shorts). Morales did win the first fight, but do you really see manny being in his prime in both of those fights?

                    Floyd has been in his prime since he was in diapers. He grew up with a family of boxers/teachers. Manny has just reached his peak IMO. Manny DOES struggle against orthodox fighters to an extent. As I have said in a post earlier, but not to the extent people are making it out to be.
