Does Floyd Mayweather....

You're a smart man :good

 

No

What can be challenging for him are guys with good defense.

Castillo, Oscar with his parrying skills, and Zab (who was trying to be slick and managed to stay defensive minded).

Corley was the other game lefty Floyd fought, he got beat bad and didn't win a single round.

 

his style is optimal against orthodox fighters because he uses his shoulder to block/perry the power right hands, but with a southpaw, a straight left down the middle can land pretty easily.

Ortiz is not the usual southpaw on the mold that other southpaws that Floyd have fought.

 

neither is Manny

 

to be fair he doesn't always use his shoulder roll against lefties and has the best right hand in the business, the number one punch to kill southpaws

Who else can triple and quad up on their lead straight right?

 

the evidence say no, he's has beaten world class south paw with little or no issues.. but people will always look at floyd fight with Corley and say floyd has problem with south paws, even though floyd dominated the whole fight before getting stun. Now with that being said, it is Floyd Sr who states floyd has problem with south paws, even though he has not trained Floyd in almost 20 years.

 

This is really dumb video.. Fan and hater alike seem to think the the shoulder roll is Floyd only defense, even though he has shown he can use his legs, parry,slip and block punches. Floyd is very good at mixing up his defense and using deferent trick.. The more fighter buy into floyd only defense is the should roll, the less chance they have of beating him.

Mosley at one point went on record as how to beat floyd's defense, but after landing that one right hand against floyd, he never figure out floyd's defense after that right hand.

 

that question will be settled Sept 17th. Not only a Southpaw but a young strong WW who throws power shots at 50 a clip per round and really doesn't give a ****.
Full respect if Floyd shuts this kid out. It will really tell a lot about Floyd. If he is who he is Ortiz should be landing at under 20%.

 

Everyone has trouble with southpaws, other southpaws have trouble with southpaws.
Mayweather is known as a slow starter and Judah who is a fast starter landed a good punch and got Mayweather's glove to touch the ground. Which got overblown.

 

The only fighter Mayweather has ever struggle with is Castillo, And he's no southpaw.

 

Ortiz will be his toughest Southpaw to date due the volume of power punches + his size and youth @ 147 pounds.
Judah and Corrley should not have lasted 4 rounds with a Floyd Mayweather but the southpaw stance allowed them their moments as some of Floyd's bag of tricks could not be used.
