he's shown vulnerability to lefties...judah touched him early with straight lefts and corley had him on ***** street with a right hook. also the southpaw stance pretty much negates the shoulder roll defense. all that said...i think pac leaves far more openings for floyd to exploit than floyd leaves pac.
He has a few openings, however, the majority of them do not favor Pacquiao too much. Nonetheless, here are the most reasonable steps.
1. Jabbing. Jabbing works. This doesn't mean you try to outbox him. This means you offset his speed and timing. You pressure him, but not recklessly, with a hard, stiff jab that backs him u. When he's backed up, you have to light up combinations, 2-3 punches and repeat this cycle.
2. Counter his potshots with more deliberate, thudding shots as he throws. You have to be able to take his shot and land a shot that he respects and can't take. You either drop him, or make him hesitate with one of his biggest weapons, which is his ability to potshot.
3. Continue to presure him him with solid shots and get him into corners. If you'e able to make him play catch up by winning some of the opening rounds (like Judah did) you have the ability to catch him throwing more and this is when he's been hurt. He was throwing when Judah stunned him and when Mosley almost dropped him.
4. You need stamina. If you can't do this for 12 hard rounds, and remained disciplined, you have no chance. The only other chance you have is landing something early and big.
Thats just totally off the mark, not how a fight is won.
Of course the only way to beat him is to box him. You can't beat a smart fighter being ******. outwork him? what does that nonsense even mean? throw a bunch of shots that miss?
no, the way to beat floyd is the way to beat anyone. you gotta do to floyd exactly what floyd does to other guys, make him see a mirror image of himself, learn his feints and don't fall for any of that dumb ****. you gotta be smart and box, and don't get ****** into that pull-counter, control the distance
cause he's too smart... if you wait on him, he's gonna pick you apart.
that's why wifebeater ducked margarito... margarito won't wait on wifebeater.. he'll just keep throwing even tho all he's hitting is wifebeater's arms and shoulders. (that's not to say that wifebeater can't beat marg, just saying that's why he ducked him)
