    According to Miss Josie Harris, Floyd is feather-fisted

    What is more lethal Floyd's right or the left hands of Martinez and Pac?

    I don't think we are talking about what more lethal..because Pac and Serg hit harder ....I think we are talking about punch selection.

    When I started this thread I wanted to compare his punch to that of other fighters be it their right or their left.

    I honestly think that Floyd's precision, speed, and coordination coupled with his incredible ability to predict his opponent make this punch dangerous. Moreover, he delivers it from varying angles making it difficult for his opponents to see it. The fact that he can land it at will speaks volumes as most other fighters can not.

    His straight right is a great weapon. Another punch he throws well is his left jab to the stomach... It's very effective.

    :lol: come on. KOs like he did against Hatton come once in a lifetime. more of his timing that got the KO.

    dont get me wrong, his left is a solid weapon, especially when he leaps into it or jabs to the body with it, but its not messing with the right hand. he uses that to set up that vicious straight right. check out the Gatti and Corrales fight. hell, check the ortiz fight. :deal

    I'm not saying his R hand is **** by all means but his left hook is better, but his best weapon is his straight right.

    Most guys set up their right hand but Floyd lands it like a really good jab. It has power in it so it ruins fighters rhythms.

    Who isn't a fan of his skills in the ring? Only a non-boxing fan.

    Similar to the right hand Duran dropped De Jesus with in the third fight. Mayweather's right hand is the best in the sport right now imo. Very versatile with it and that's the key.
