    Manny Pacquiao's record against southpaws

    I just found out that Mayweather is 9-0 against southpaws, but I really wanna know how many southpaws Pacquiao has faced in his career, I don't recall one fight where he fought anoher southpaws.

    David Diaz, the fight I bought all because of Diaz' physique during the weigh in

    I don't even know how that was a PPV come to think of it.

      What exactly are you trying to get at? Manny's not an orthodox fighter, so how does Floyd's stat (random intro for a Manny Pac question btw) against southpaws apply? Perhaps you don't understand how boxing works when you're actually fighting - a southpaw to a southpaw is like an orthodox fighter facing an orthodox fighter, the same angles are there for the lead hand/foot and the back hand/foot. I would imagine it would be easier for Manny....I would imagine and Freddie Roach has said Manny loves sparring southpaws.

        Wrong, Southpaws train to fight orthodox fighters just like orthodox fighters train to fight orthodox fighters when they start boxing, how to fight a southpaw is something u learn later cuz the majority of fighters are orthodox, so a southpaw would give another southpaw problems cuz they're not used to fighting each others.

              Someone said David Diaz already, Fahsan 3K Battery was a southpaw if I remember correctly although I've only seen him fight Molitor and Pacquiao.

              Agapito Sanchez was a southpaw, Rakiatgym (spelling?) was a southpaw and the only reason I know that was because I watched his fight with Valdemir Pereira which was a really good fight a few years ago and they mentioned his fight with Pacquiao in the build up.

              I'm sure there are more if you go back to his flyweight days but the only fights I've seen of Manny that far back were his KO defeats and his title win against Sasakul.

                Always funny when people try and drop knowledge only to fall flat on their face. The advantage southpaws have over orthodox fighters is familiarity, which they lose when stepping in the ring with other southpaws.

                  I was questioning my own sanity but Sanchez was orthodox.

                    Don't act like a clueless twat for the sake of trying to one up me, of course familiarity helps, the post was about angles - applying Floyd statistics to a Manny question in regards to southpaws doesn't make any sense.
