    Chop Chop, Zab Judah and Vicious ( Lol ) Ortiz ( Happy Birthday Victor ) are nothing close to Pacquiao except being southpaws.

    The big issue here is I do not slate Frauds talent like most Fraud fans do towards Pac. I will give him every credit if he wins the fight, and hope you will do exactly the same...Highly doubt you will though

    Round 4 against Zab Judah, mid-round, Floyd was hurt with the a "jab, jab, straight left". This combination sounds familiar, right? Floyd walked straight back to the ropes in a high guard. Zab Judah went to finish, but instead of punching him, he literally collapsed on Floyd and clinched him. 4th Round. It. Was. The. FOURTH. Round. The dude has the worst stamina I've ever seen.


    Oh, also, Victor Ortiz caught him a few times with it as well. I watched that fight yesterday. I remember pausing it to rewatch him land it a couple times, but I can't remember win. I'll go back and look if you want though. Surprisingly, the punch Ortiz hurt Mayweather the worst with was the straight right. Stunned him once with it when he was pushing him back towards the ropes.

    Keep in mind, Judah was finding success with the jab, jab, straight and this was when Floyd was in his prime. When his reflexes were at their highest peak. That was almost 10 years ago...and this version of Pacquiao know is better than any version of Zab Judah.

    I think both Mayweather and Pacquiao will be eating each other's straights all night. If Pacquiao finds out that Mayweather's power won't hurt him, then Pacquiao will definitely get more aggressive and open himself up to be hit more to land more.

    About 8 or so years of tailor made fights.

    Its floyds fans who are delusional thinking hes got this fight wrapped up even before he sets foot in the ring. When they touch gloves and pac stares into his eyes, floyd will think 'wtf have i gotten myself into' haha. Floyd already looked scared when they met at the basketball game :lol:

    so you bringing up Zab who only won like 2-3 rounds and thats th ebest example you got?? SO he got hit with a few left hands before, thats nice...

    How many straight rights has pac been hit with??? Tons and tons. hasnt fought anybody with power since he got KO either (rios has some but is a punching bag) and if your gonna tell me bradley and Algeri hit harder then Floyd im gonna slap you.

    Floyd was in his physical prime as far as quickness and reflexes, maybe, but his IQ and physical strength have increased since then.

    And keep thinking Floyd's shots can't hurt Manny. A quick, well timed shot is as good as any power shot. Manny can't get reckless in there.

    You're not getting the point. The straight left is a southpaw's dominant punch. Mayweather has only fought around...what...3 southpaws in his entire career? And only 1 that actually had comparable hand speed who was Judah, yet he still wasn't as fast as Mayweather.

    So, in a fight with Southpaws, Mayweather has shown he is susceptible to be hit with the left hand. He showed this when he was in his PRIME. Mayweather is no longer prime, so his reflexes a slightly less to what they were when he was boxing in 2006. This may make Floyd more hittable for Manny, especially when you watch the Maidana fights.

    Now, Mayweather was susceptible to the left hand (hurt by them, not just susceptible) and these were against southpaw opponents who weren't that strong (unlike Pacquiao) and were slower than Floyd (unlike Pacquiao).

    Yes, Manny gets hit with rights but it comes with his style. He is a fighter that punches through his opponents (especially when they lack power i.e. Algieri). When an opponent can't hurt him, he will be willing to exchange with you and open himself to the risk of eating right hands. Because simply, he'll eat 3 of your right hands to land 1 of his left. That's just how he is. It may sounds stupid, but it works for him and his style.

    Keep in mind out of all the straight rights that Pacquiao has endured, only one has caused him to lose.
