    Pacquiao used to be a one-handed fighter, so you have to say Pacquiao's straight left was more important in his respective career. Even without Mayweather's straight right, he still would have done what he did. Take away Pacquiao's straight left and he never would have gone anywhere.

    Of course, it's all neither here nor there since they both DID have those punches.

    Floyd and his straight right hand lead is beautiful...I tried doing that **** in sparring and it looks easier to do than it actually is...Floyd throws that Right hand lead and it takes away his opponents will..that and his left jab to the body

    Pac has a very nice straight left though and it is just as dangerous as Floyds right hand lead easily

    pac's straight left. this punch has won him fights especially when he's still a 1D fighter. floyd's wins are primarily because of his superb defence.

    Pac was never as 1-dimensional as he was made out to be even though he wasn't as well-rounded as he is today
