does Mayweather really struggle with Southpaws?

[The_Golden_Goy]

Or is it just the same as alot of orthodox fighters? they dont struggle but they have to adjust to something not so familiar. from what i can remember Floyd had few problems with Corley, Zab or Mitchell?

Zab started great but faded and lost his head, he beat Corley and Sharmba with UD and KO respectively so I dont understand where this is coming from.

So does Floyd really struggle? because for my money, hes never really struggled at all

[STRUGG]

yes he does..........he will excel fighting.........a green.......1 fight remove from his weightclass southpaw though.....................

Accordinh to Tards Floyd was almost KO'd by Mosely, so if Chop, Zab or Sharmba so much as landed a punch on Floyd that = struggled.

errr.....what?

Corley didn't win a single round

Mitchell got his AZZ beat so silly it's not even funny

Zab DEFINITELY won the 1st and 2nd round. He CLEARLY lost the 3rd. 4th is arguable for either fighter

Floyd also fought 3 other southpaws in his career, so that's 6 total. Only ONE managed to win any rounds, and it was only 2-3 rounds.

Losing 2-3 out of 40 against something you "struggle" with is very impressive. That means he has won 92.5% or 95% of his rounds with lefties.

all southpaws give orthodox fighters problems. southpaws even give other southpaws problems.

I expect ortiz to do better than corley or sharmba because ortiz is a lot bigger than those two.

not sure if ortiz can do better than judah though, I'm thinking he can over the entire fight, but not by much.

just like to clarify, I dont think Mayweather struggles with southpaws at all, but that seems to be the general consensus on NSB

Mayweather struggles against southpaws...

Zab won 4 rounds according to scorecards, he lost by one point according to me because they didn't count a knock down.

Mayweather is a great fighter, but he didn't look great against Corley or Judah, even his father floyd senior admited Floyd should avoid left handed fighters...

Ortiz is complete **** (a draw against Peterson, a loss to Maidana, a hard win to average overrated Berto) but he won't be easy for Floyd.
Ortiz is a fresh name but he's nothing in the WW division, Berto always was a paper champ.

[KnockUTheFukOut]

NO HE DON'T!

A few of them landed some big shots on him...but in the end they ALL GOT DOMINATED! So how is that "STRUGGLING"

but at the same time Southpaws are always a little difficult to deal for most Right Handed Fighters especially a GOOD SOUTHPAW!

Its really hardnto look good when facing a southpaw
