    Key punches for pac vs mayweather

    In the unlikely event that they ever square off the most important punch for mayweather will be the left hook. The lead right hand wont mean jack for floyd unless its followed by a left hook because pac will answer immediately with 5-6 punch combos after every right hand which floyd may avoid mostly at first but wear him down eventually.

    As for pacquiao...the right hook to the body will be crucial. Floyd's whole shoulder rolling and high guarding while leaning forward style revolves around maximun protection to his nody. Pac has the speed and power but floyd's defense is tough and there won't be any openings for the knockout shot unless he punishes floyd's body enough to slow down all the upper body movement.

    TS forgot to mention Floyd's best punch, the deadly sucker punch.

              Ur right about Floyd, but Manny doesn't need to look for 1 punch at all... Always combinations

                  Floyd: the jab to the body...this will stall most of PAC's attacks and force him to reset...right hand, imperative when facing lefties

                    Don't you mean right hand? Floyd doesn't body jab southpaws too much and has shown to be very effective with a straight down there.
