Oh, i don't know. How about adds up their jabs lands and throws with their power punches lands and throws for starter? But instead you only post the power punches total because that's only way you know Manny might have a chance, but when you look at their last nine fights, Floyd's power punches % is still higher.
Pacquiao more accurate puncher than Mayweather

i can agree with you to take out the jabs in the equation as i understand your view about the other uses of the jabs......
however, i can also see some validity in the inclusion of the jabs as per other posters view.......
hence, the topic, in my view, is really subjective...
even fight commentators covering the bouts recognized pac as a very accurate puncher; with some claiming pac as today's most accurate puncher.....
but that is not the end of it.......
people then will be looking at/compare the recipient of the punches..the opponents
and will also include the time element when the fights happened.....
and we will have terms as; old, washed up, left overs, past primes etc., etc.
and then again, everything becomes subjective....
don't get me wrong; your thread is a very good one and interesting....
the fact that we got this far attest to that.....
cheers to all...Comment

Floyd accuracy is still very high it is just 2nd to Pacquiao at the moment.
That might change in the next fight with Ortiz being so easy to hit.Comment

You only chose six fights because you didn't wanted to go further to see how Floyd's power percentage would increase, while Manny's would decrease. Once again, you're choosing whatever criteria fits your agenda. If it was possible, i'd want to update all of their professional fights punch stats since their pro debut and see who's truly the more accurate. Why stop at just six fights? you can look at three more. If you can find Manny's punch stats from the Jorge Solis fight, then i would gladly keep on adding up more fights to prove if he's truly a more accurate puncher than Floyd.Comment

For a truer result I should have loaded it so that the more recent fights counted for more.Comment

Some people seem to think Mayweather is the most accurate puncher but the truth of the matter is that Pacquiao is more accurate than Mayweather.
Pacquiao throw more punches and is a combination puncher, both these things redcue accuracy. On top of this Pacquiao is a harder puncher and throws harder puncher, another thing that will effect accuracy.
We also have to forget about the jab as the jab is use to open a defence and find range, so it can be used effectively even though it is not landing.
Pacquiao also lands his punches right on the button, **** on the chin, Mayweather punches are more scoring punches.
Pacquiao landed an astonishing 50% of his power punches against Mosley while Mayweather landed an impresiive 46%, still 4 % less than Pacquiao. And Mosley was in defensive mode when facing Pacquiao and Pacquiao was throwing more punches than Mayweather.
Pacquiao vs Mosley
177 / 353: 50%
Mayweather Mosley
123 / 267: 46%
Pacquiao vs Margarito
411 / 713: 58%
Mayweather Marquez
105 / 177: 59%
Pacquiao vs Clottey
232 / 682: 34%
Mayweather vs Hatton
257/100: 39%

Pacquiao vs Cotto
276 / 560: 49%
Mayweather vs De La Hoya
241/138: 57%
http://boxrec.com/media/index.php?title=Fight:1149806
Pacquiao vs Hatton
65 / 105: 62%
Mayweather vs Baldomir
258/131: 51%
http://boxrec.com/media/index.php?title=Fight:1104350
Pacquiao vs De la Hoya
195 / 333: 59%
Mayweather vs Judah
145/295 49%
A near-riot in the closing seconds of the 10th round only delayed the inevitable: A dominant Floyd Mayweather Jr. victory.
So what is there 6 fight average?
Pacquiao 52%
Mayweather 50.2%
There you have it the stats back up my theory and add to this Pacquiao throws more, hits harder and throws more combinations and higher punch combinations, you would have to agree Pacquiao is the more accurate puncher.
I liked when Pac landed accurately to Clotteys gloves and elbows and arms. He beat the **** out of his arms.Comment
