    Even the ultra slow reflexed Miguel Cotto had some success with his half AZZed shoulder roll.

    That punch that stunned Floyd caught him in the middle of his own punch. It's was a counter in other words. Corley used a right hook to counter one of Floyd's punches the same way Mosley used a looping right to catch Floyd. Who the hell is telling you that these right "hooks" land when he's in his shell guard?

    Both the right hooks Pac throws in that combination land right on his chin.

    He will surprise everyone with a shoulder roll position from a left handed stance.

    Pac is going to be befuddled.

    He was on the ropes... :tired If they were in the centre of the ring Corley would've hurt Mayweather really badly.

    Are you ****ing kidding? Look closely at Pacquiao vs Cotto's gif. Pacquiao is still landing punches on Cotto's face!

    Out of 10 punches, Pacquiao landed 6.

    yes he would use a high guard against Pacquiao. He always does that against lefties.

    Cotto isn't Mayweather :tired and Corley isn't Pacquiao. Anyway, how many punches did Pacquiao landed on Cotto while he was on ropes? If you compare Mayweather's stance while he was on the ropes and Cotto while he was on the ropes, you'd notice their stance is completely different.

    Corley charged at Mayweather while his body is bent. It's something that shouldn't be done because one of the purpose of the left hand (in the Philly shell stance) is to null the attacks of the "charger" by counters (usually a left hook or a left uppercut.

    I doubt Pacquiao would do that. He will attack Mayweather in different angles.

    My guess is that he will fight most of the Pac fight from a high guard. Pressuring Pac and moving forward peppering him with straight shots. Then making sure to let loose when Pac is moving laterally catching Pac with hooks and body shots.

    Let's all just hope that Pac's agreeing to the drug testing is real and we can now look forward to the fight.

    Yes he was much trickier, FMJ was much more aggressive, and in his prime? A better Pure Boxer.
