    his shoulder roll does not work vs southpaws (except ortiz lol) so i can see where snr is coming from, but numbers show floyd lands more consistently vs southys (not sure about the numbers landed on floyd tho)

    Pac is not only a southpaw, but the southpaw of southpaws. like calculus to a student troubled by
    math.

    He seems to be more aggressive vs southpaws, probably because he can't rely on the roll. He just can't do that now and even if he did its all good for Pac.

    Seemed to take him a few rounds to adjust to moving away from the left as well.


    Pac is going to beat him. :yep

    Obviously none but every southpaw Mayweather fought made a mark and gave him trouble. Remember that Pacquiao isn't any southpaw, he's an ATG quality southpaw.

    I don't understand though? What trouble? He beat corley 12-0 and corley landed ONE good shot, just like shane & he's right handed. I guess he's got a problem with both stances..

    Floyd has been in more AND WORSE trouble against orthodox fighters than southpaws. He has never almost lost to a southpaw either

    That Reggie Sanders fight could have gone either way, honestly. Shocking compared to all the fights before and after it.
