    Pinoy can photoshop as many KFC things as they want, but people really forget how ducked "Fraud Gayweather" was as he came up the ranks. Career southpaw contender Joel Casamoyer wanted nothing to do with him...The best trainer of this era, Steward wouldn't even mention his southpaw fighter Prince Naseem in the same breath as "Fraud Gayweather Jr" because he already knew the outcome. If Floyd was so vulnerable to southpaws, why did two of the best southpaws of the last 20 years duck the hell out of him even after Floyd was calling them out?
    how do you make up such crazy things? because floyd called him out once after a fight that means he wants to fight him? really? and when did floyd initiate negotiations with casamayor...........oh right never yeah he wanted that fight so badly. do you not realize there is something called posturing? mayweather does it all the time but i guess you haven't noticed.

    if mayweather wanted to make the fight with casamayor he could have made it in a second. its highly illogical to think casamayor would turn down his biggest payday/chance but he never got that chance so we will never know. and why didn't he get that chance? because floyd never offered it to him. he never even tried which tells me he didn't really want the fight. he was calling the shots, he was the a-side, he had all the power and yet no fight. he called him out yet he simply forgot about casamayor when trying to setup his next opponent? he was more content to fight carlos alberto rios, justin juuko, phillip ndou, etc...i doubt floyd had ever heard of those dudes before negotiating to fight them. it's not all floyd's fault as hbo allowed him to fight such crappy opposition instead of really challenging him but that just shows they don't care about quality fights but only about manufacturing stars. a pattern that we see continue today.

    b-sides like casamayor rarely get to choose their opponents so carefully. that's why they are forced to fight other tough but less popular fighters(corrales 3 times, castillo, freitas, campbell etc...) and they flame out earlier while hype guys like floyd cherry pick and preserve themselves.

      I agree with some points in the video, like the counter right hand for the jab to the body, the advantage of being a southpaw (forcing Floyd to use his high guard instead of shoulder roll), overall though pretty average video.

      Marquez had success with Pac because he's fought him 3 times and has made it his life's work to beat him. Floyd vs Marquez was bad for Marquez because you had a counter puncher vs a better counter puncher, easy to work that one out.

        As much as id love the points in the video to be true. It picks out a few punches that Floyd got caught with during his whole career. All from fights which he won with ease.

        In theory it works. But with Floyd, reality is a different matter.

        Pac only has a punchers chance. imo.
