Lead rights are one of the easiest punches to land against southpaws, add to that mayweather superior speed/timing and yeah....
You can either try taking away his straight right, or his sweeping right. But because of mayweather speed, the punch you don't try to take away will be a problem. Cotto's game plan was to take away mayweathers straight right, and he did, but mayweather busted out the sweeping right and it was effective all night.
But the angle is naturally there against southpaws for lead rights, just need the speed
