It's not just about accuracy. Accuracy just means how much punches you can land out of the punches you threw. What Floyd does better than any boxer is being accurate at the right time. Accuracy is at its best when punches are thrown with good timing. Floyd Mayweather catches them when they are coming in so they collide against Floyd's punches instead of just getting tagged. They might not be powerful punches because Floyd is not a naturally strong puncher, but he uses his opponents aggression to magnify his power. I've said this in other threads as well, but its not about being accurate. It's about being effectively accurate. So, if you ask "Who is the more effectively accurate puncher?" Then the answer is Floyd Mayweather.
review the videos of the last 6 fights of pac....
and review the videos of the last 6 fights of floyd...
listen carefully to what the commentators said......
the answer to the thread is clearly indicated.........
just don't hate the commentators when you hear something not to your liking....
or something not in favor of your favorite fighter....
what they were saying were also supported by slow motion replays...
Maybe I should put this crappy pile of ****e thread to rest by saying that both of guys suck donkeys balls when in comes to lots of accurate punches when compared with James 'Light Out' Toney!
Pac more accurate than Mayweather because he throws more punches (even though he lands much less in % terms)?
Mayweather less accurate because he's more accurate?
Fine!
James Toney is the only fighter in history to have landed more than 400 punches more than once in titles fights! In fact, he's done it 4 times!
So TS and every other daft ****? **** off and go watch Toney if you think more punches equal accuracy. Go watch someone throw lots of punches and actually be accurate with them and maybe it'll sink in.
You know the other funny thing? Pac ain't even in the top 100 fighters in terms of amount of accurate punches landed in fights. Compared to guys like Meldrick Taylor, Pernell Whitaker, James Toney, he sucks.
Floyd isn't either. His % is brilliant.....amazingly so, but he doesn't throw lots. Pac does, but in terms of accuracy he still sucks. All that saying....who cares? Pacquiao still wins fights and beats guys up, knocks them out, highlight reel stuff. He isn't accurate though so try and think a little before acting like complete douche bags.
Floyd wins too, with amazing accuracy. It's his strong point and not Pac's.
But Toney throws lots and lands lots too. Whitaker also throws lots of lands lots too. So, if you want to bring up some ******ed point of "Pac throws lots and that means he's more accurate. He landed like totally over 100 punches against Mosley!" go watch the guys who land over 400 punches, without getting hit either.
Stats won't tell a lie, but some people will simply play blind and defend their idol!
Lets face it, Pacman can take hard punches from his taller and heavier opponents, but you see, his opponents can't solve the speed and power punches combos of Pacman, hence they ended up with bloodied and swollen faces.
i thought the TS knew his boxing before so i use to try and discuss boxing with him, Never realise the guy is a twat not a ****** but a plank...Yes Pac throws more, yes Pac beats you up more, Yes Paq lands more But in terms of accuracy Mayweather is more accurate, Either the TS is a genius or the boxing world are ******ed when they claim Mayweather is the most accurate boxer of our time....And if thats the case then the TS has stumble on to something that a lot of boxing media, experts, fans seem to have over look.
Look at the stats, power punches Pacquiao 52% average over his last 6 fights. Mayweather 50.2% average over his last 6 fights.
It's a punch. It's the most important punch in boxing. It's part of the accuracy of a fighters punch stats. Pac lands at a much lower %. It's part of his punch stats.
Why not take out body punching too? For that matter, let's take out the straight left because that is Pac's most important punch and would confuse the issue.
Ok? So come back when you have looked at the video and taken out all of Pac's most accurate punches and the stuff that sets everything up for him and we can move on.
Until then, stop being such a daft ****ing tool, get over yourself, and get this through your thick head....Pac=33% accuracy of his punches, Mayweather=47% of his.
It's a real simple concept. In boxing you throw punches. The ones that land, out of all that you throw, make up your accuracy. If one fighter lands a higher %, that means he's more accurate. Does this compute? Is that reasoned enough for you or do I need to type slower? Maybe you need a special translator?
Accuracy is defined by what you land from what you throw. Taking certain select punches out of the equation is utterly meaningless. In terms of accuracy, it is all about how much you land overall from what you throw overall. If you're thick enough to think otherwise, **** off and start a new thread that isn't as ****** as this, like....
"Pac is the more accurate power puncher than Mayweather over their last six respective fights"
Their punch accuracy though? Pac is less accurate by 15%.
I'll explain it slowly for you so you can understand.
Pacquiao would throw his jab at a guard to blind his opponent or move their guard to create a opening or move and create an angle to land a punch. Compubox will say this punch has missed because it was not a scoring punch but the punch did exactly what it was meant to do, from Pacquiao perspective it was a successful punch.
Can you understand this?
Answer the question!
Why is it that compubox separate the jabs from the rest of the punches?
I remember one fight where Pacquiao punched himself in the face. His accuracy was so pin point that he literally jumbled his brain a little, you could see it when he almost lost his legs.
I have never seen Mayweather come close to doing that, yet Pacquiao made it look effortless, natural, and right on point to the chin, so maybe you're onto something, TS.
