    The problem is,and I know that for a fact,and that's what fans fail to understand:
    Fighting southpaws is an OTHER SPORT.

    And when I remember Floyd vs Zab,Corley,the Spadafora tape,well,he isn't that great in this one.
    CAN I DOUBT PLEASE?

    He's a perfect fighter,but he has flaws against southpaw fighters.
    Even his father said in a video,they shouldn't allow lil Floyd to fight southpaws.
    Mayweather will NEVER;NEVER beat with ease a southpaw of Pacquiao's quality,even if Pacquiao has flaws,if Pacquiao hadn't an average D,Floyd would have no chance.
    Dude was getting tagged all night by Zab until "not so super" gased and Spadafora,even Corley tatooed his face with lefts.
    His shoulder roll is swiss cheese against lefties.

    Pacquiao is a nightmare for Floyd,hopefully he's smaller,at least Floyd can use his reach.
    im sorry but just in case you forgot, floyd dominated all the southpaws he fought.

    floyd has more experience fighting someone like pac than pac has fighting someone like floyd.

      1) no one that has run from pac has beaten him.
      2) wifebeater can't beat up pac... his output is way too low

      Now Pacquiao is gaining momentum to me while Mayweather losing due to his inactivity.

      Thus I brought up PRIME MAYWEAHTER vs PRIME PACQUIAO.
      wifebeater is still in his prime. his inactivity isn't due to him being past his prime, it's because he's shook.

      But lately it's been all Pacquiao and this could really affect Mayweather mentally as he is really a non-engaging fighter or in an euphemistic phraseology:

      •*a scientific and cautious fighter
      non-engaging fighter = runner/potshotter

      But Pacquiao's emotion/passion shows it in the most fistic way. Via relentless combinations and from all the angles that 360 circles can provide.
      that is why wifebeater will lose

        Mayweather didn't dominate Jab Zudah...he adjusted to beat him from an early onslaught possibility.

        Mayweather didn't dominate DeLa Hoya either...though DLH isn't a southpaw.

          As a Pacquiao fan (and Mayweather's skills fan) I digress.

          I really think that both sides can beat each other, that's the potential for this highly-anticipated and much sought fight in current history.

          But again, Pacquiao is gaining on me fast as his ferocious combination could be the very best in history of pugilism sport.

            zab was getting dominated, hence the low blow he threw

                  Fair enough....but back to the Mayweather/Pacquiao, it should happen.

                      Good post, interesting observation. The biggest test for Mayweather is getting through the early rounds, Mayweather had some trouble with the hand speed and south paw stance of Judah but adjusted fairly quickly, since Pac has very quick hands and more power it could be dangerous for Mayweather. I lean towards a decision for Mayweather but would also not be surprised if he gets stopped, most likely TKO, imagine how crazy it would be when we witness the first legit time (yes he has been knocked down before but wasn't hurt(Judah) and the other time was because he hurt his hand) he gets knocked down - I can only imagine the atmosphere in the crowd.
