    It's a weapon he seldom uses against anyone. But the dude put that weapon to use repeatedly in the fight and was nailing Pacquiao at WILL with it.

    He used it well as a rangefinder, opening Pacquiao up with his right hand, right uppercut.

    Used it as a defensive tool, getting Pacquiao out of range. Just shut him out entirely. Pretty much

    It was beautiful to watch.

    He hasn't used the jab this often since his early 130-135 days but he took Pac to school with that jab.

    Stop with the threads. We know, Floyd won handily. Just stop, you're being as bad as the Pacquiao excuse thread starters.

    You're just using it as another opportunity to gloat. Go post this stuff in the aftermath thread.

    Great jab, so flashy. I loved particularly the way it made such a loud slapping sound as it smashed against the gloves of Pacquiao. It didn't need to connect. As long as it sounded like it did, the judges would give the benefit of the doubt. Great tactics.

    Good, man! Wasn't exactly a thrilling Saturday night but who really expected much else? I had it 8-4 Floyd and I may have been a little generous to Manny. I was out of my seat in the 4th round hoping that straight left had done more damage than it did. How you doin, man?

    Arm punches. Floyd's punches couldn't crack an egg Saturday night. It was all point scoring and moving. It was more of a slap fight than an actual fight.

    The clinch was a fantastic weapon as well.

    This is aftermath waste receptacle material. Look how many threads you have started since the fight. It's almost as bad as boxing master.

    :think If you really thought that fight had a lot of clinches you don't watch all that much boxing.

    :nono

    You of all people should know that Floyd doesn't jab southpaws!!!

    Since its you, I shall indulge you.

    Floyd's jab worked beautifully and was indeed a major factor in him controlling the fight to such an extent that the last few rounds were pointless.
