    shoulder roll doesn't work if you go to the body just watch the Castillo-Gayweather fight.

    no, you're not. you're saying that a shoulder roll won't work against a southpaw left hand, not that it won't work against a southpaw. if floyd is in his shell, manny would have a hard time passing a right over floyd's left shoulder. but floyd would not be able to block a left hand with is shoulder, just like he can't against an orthodox fighter. that's why he keeps his right hand where it is when he's on the defensive.

    I think he might just have improved slightly as a fighter since then.:patsch
    To go to the body you've got to be in punching range, and Mayweather punches much harder now, and as a result if you think about going to the body, your going to get hit hard for it.

    Oh, and I checked boxrec and Mayweather holds 2 wins over Castillo.:good

    Sweetpea had the best jab for a southpaw ever,what the hell is roach talking about.Without his jab Sweetpea would not have been the kind of fighter he was.
    FR - When you are a southpaw fighting a conventional fighter, the alignment for the jab is not really conducive for that kind of fighting. Manny has a great jab but when you are fighting a right handed fighter, it changes the dynamics of the positioning of the feet so the jab is not really relevant. So whoever is making those kind of statements does not know boxing because they don't understand how southpaws work against right handed fighters.

    This guy is still pissed coz he got exposed as a ******. Asking for my pictures online. LMAO talking like a thug, telling people he'll slap them around and yet he asked another grown ass man for his picture.

    Rudyard, as much as you want to keep repeating my typo, the fact that you are probably a real closet ****** doesn't change anything. LMAO go stick with OSDT and purse splits you dumb ******. :lol:

    The shoulder roll doesn't work against a southpaw?????? No **** roach, and thanks for stating the obvious for the ones who didn't know already.

    Floyd will not shoulder roll manny. He will fight in a simular fashion to that of the mosley fight with a high guard like clottey and being agressive.
