        He is not swarming though, it a mistake people make about Pacquiao but his punch are aimed and more often than not he hits the target

        Pacquiao was throwing 6/7 punch combos against Marg and was landing all of them.

            pacs the more accurate puncher. Look at the state of their faces, his punches land. People only can guess if Floyds punches land or not because i dont see no evidence of it. No marked faces.

            Actually the judges are probably scoring him for punches that didnt land.

                For those who say that Floyd is more effective because he is more accurate:

                Stats from both fighters last two fights that lasted 12 rounds each (deliberately did not consider older fights because that would include Floyd fights that were close to or more than 4 years ago):

                Floyd: total punches= 489/970 =50%
                Jabs: 270/526 =51% =11.25/rd.
                Power punches: 228/384 =59% =9.5/rd.

                Pac: total punches = 698/1796 =39%
                Jabs: 110/730 =15% =4.6/rd.
                Power punches: 588/1066 =55% =24.5/rd.

                Based on those stats, Floyd is definitely more accurate. But would that mean he is more effective? He throws more jabs than power punches; 11.25/rd. vs. 9.5/rd., and he hits his opponents with less punches per round.

                Pac's stats shows a different picture. He jabs are a lot less accurate because his reach is a lot shorter. He probably uses these more to gauge the distance or to prepare for a barrage of punches. Now take note of his power punches. He lands a whopping 24.5 per round.

                Based on those stats, if you have a choice, who would you rather fight?

                    Pacquiao is clearly a more accurate puncher. Why people go off of connect percentage is beyond me, because while numbers are somewhat of good indicator, they aren't the end all be all when it comes to accuracy.
