    Floyd has never defended a jab well, its the punch that lands on Floyd easier than any other punch. Why? Because they're usually left hands. Floyd defends right hands well, but not left. Pac's straight Left is the money punch, right down the pipe. This punch will land on Floyd all night!

    The straight left isn't the same as a left jab. A jab isn't a power punch, while a straight left is.

    Pac isn't good at preventing the right hand. In fact he's a sucker for it. :dealIn 4 fights with JMM he kept getting hit by the same punch over and over never making an adjustment it's just sad. Your thread is ridiculous Oscar***ual and is reaching at best all boxers have have problems with a good jab Pac included.

    He also got hit a good amount of times with the right hand against Bradley.

    even if what your saying is true

    Pacquiao doesn't have a jab. Nor does he ever jab. So it won't be a problem.

    Pacquiao is the one who was knocked out cold by a right hand. Maybe that's what you should be worried about.:happy

    Also, Pacquiao's not that good on the inside.

    If memory serves, he did use his jab very well in the rematch with MAB.

    Agreed, which is why I was a little confused at what Oscar was suggesting when he made a similar bait and switch.

    I realize that. But nonetheless, I seem to recall Pacquiao exhibiting a very good jab in that particular contest.

    Of course he did but the Oscar***ual thread starter won't say that. Pac has severe problems with the right hand at least PBF can take away his opponents best punch usually and not get hit with it again and again.

    Stop it! This is type of post that the thread starter doesn't like, it destroys his argument and agenda.

    What is this? Most of those shots missed or were blocked not landing clean. If you actually watched the fight instead of an edited video you would see that Zab's straight left became less effective as the fight went on.
