VIDEO: Floyd Mayweather: Techniques vs Southpaw

[SincereDaGreat]

I just answered the guy's question. He asked to name a round that Mayweather clearly lost. And I gave him the round that I thought he clearly lost.

And that's CLEARLY to you LOL...I guesss that's why we've been having a lot of decision robberies lately!!! None of the guys you mentioned besides maybe Castillo CLEARLY won a round against Floyd. If you listen to the commentary, it's always something that Floyd isn't doing that makes them give the round to the other guy...never because the other guy was LANDING the most clear and effective punches!!

Example: Leaderman gave ther first 3 rounds of the Hatton/Floyd fight to Hatton because he said Floyd wasn't using lateral movement when Hatton was rushing in...BOGUS LOGIC results in REACHING for $h!t!!!!

[QUOTE=lacson;10838832]Yes Mayweather is good at calling him out then running and hiding behind additional blood tests. He goes, sure I'll fight but let us get someone to stab you in the arm with no cutoff date, be open to get tested everyday up to the day of the fight, it's ok Manny, I'll do the same thing (wink, wink) common manny if you don't agree it means your ducking.

That's why it's all nonsense, just a big excuse. I say, Floyd just do what all fighters do, grow some decent nuts and fight, it's the profession you decided on, you're making decent money, satisfy your fans who thinks you can beat pacquiao anyway. Just


..im sorry but if yiu really believe what you just said then theres no sense talking to a moron.

too bad pac does not fight like corley. pac is unorthodox and comes from different angles with combos. lets see floyd defend 5 punches he cant see coming. pac wont stand in front of floyd like corley. he will be here there everywhere.

lets see what happens.

But floyd isn't going to stand there and get hit like the top rank bum of the month will. He will move like Mosley, accept he will actually hit pac back.

In about 50 professional rounds against southpaws floyd has won 80-85% of the rounds (+/- 4%). Why do so many people suggest he is weak against southpaws?

Numbers are a cop out. Yes Floyd won those fights by a wide margin, does that mean you ignore everything that happened during the fight, during those 15-25(+/- 4)% of the rounds?

[jtiger777]

asking for additional test is a big excuse. No one else goes around asking their opponents for additional test. There are only 2 reasons why he's asking. One, pacquiao is just too strong, too fast, throws too many punches that he truly believes he's on peds or two, he is just too strong, too fast, throws too many punches. Either way he has no confidence in himself to get into the ring with him.

yeah man been there heard that....

I'm not ignoring them I'm just trying to get you to see that your conclusion about "having problems" is contextual more than actual. Southpaws are difficult for any opponent. Floyd has lost rounds to southpaws. I would bet most of them are early in the fight, when floyd loses most of his rounds.

I would bet floyd has won 95-98% of the "championship" (9-12) rounds against southpaws. Respectfully, that doesn't suggest a "problem" to me.

But I get your points.

And I guess you think Floyd fights similar to face first Marg, Hatton, Diaz etc right??? Go back and see who's face looks more beat up after fights MAY or PAC...and remember Pac wasn't fighting counter punchers or combo punchers besides JMM!!! They say Clotty threw about 10 punches but Pacs face tells a different story!!

Go off history and not emotion...go look at past fights and see which fight gets hit more.

It's also very easy to throw that many punches when a guy refuses to take a step back or fully commit to moving his head.

True that, hard to debate sensibly with people here, similar to talking to Roger or May Sr. Anyways, I'm off till next time.

How did he lose those rounds though??? Is it because Floyd was very very cautious or because the southpaw beat Floyd up in the round?

From what i've watched its maybe Floyd lands a few, the other guy lands a couple but the other guy came forward a little more so we'll just give him the round!!

Would it sound more reasonable to say(as opposed to Floyd struggles with southpaws) that Floyd has at times shown vulnerabilities to southpaw angles?

I am well aware that I am isolating singular moments and focusing disproportionately on them. The reason I do so is because a fighter can perceive a weakness and exploit it in the same manner.

Thank you for being respectful, I won't beat a dead horse. As I said, the Ortiz fight should shed some light on the Floyd vs Southpaws debate.
