    Doesn't matter, Floyd doesn't use the shoulder role against southpaws

    Floyd is going to beat the **** out of Pac plain and simple.

    That's what I thought, Mosley landed less on Floyd than Clottey did on Pacquaio, it was under 100 punches iirc.

    I disagree with Roach. I remember De La Hoya said he proposed to Mosley to use the jab a lot, because constantly launching the jab kept Mayweather behind his defence. I agree with this, I think a quick and strong jab will cause Mayweather problems. Pac's right is faster than May's left and certainly stronger.

    Pacquiao's lead straight left is a better "jab" than 99% of orthodox fighters' jabs.

    you don't wanna go into a fight trying to match your jab with Pac's straight left, because like Cotto did you will quickly find out that you're about to get your ass kicked.

    great, but he said pac's right (his actually jabbing hand) is faster than pbf's left (ch..ch..check hooking hand)

    i'm not taking anything away from pac, but if he goes into the fight thinking he can jab at will (and pac has great punches, and his jab is NOT one of them), he will walk into a hook and land on his ass


    i don't think he will do this, as i don't think he dumb enough, and roach is too smart to let it happen

    Pac does have a great jab which he uses against orthodox fighters to set up his other punches.

    Against Diaz, another southpaw, Pacquiao was snapping his head back with jabs all night long.

    Pac can also throw his jab as part of a combination, not just as the lead punch. And he does it with power and accuracy.
