The problem that Pacquiao poses is after a straight left and you are on the ropes there's more to come. And they're coming from all weird angles. Take note, it's not a left jab, which he is a sucker for, it's a straight left hand from Manny Pacquiao.

I'm curious on how will Floyd react to a nasty cut or a broken eye socket once that unprotected left side of Floyd gets hit. He can't avoid it using the Philly shell, he can't use the shoulder roll. I believe the most effective way to prevent that is by making Pacquiao allergic to a check left hook. He should stun him using that because if not, Pacquiao will keep coming. You have hurt him real bad on his feet or knock him out senseless like what Marquez did.
I dont think he uses the philly shell for pac, i think he puts his window up like he did against Shane and walks him back. I think Roach and Manny will try to time the right hook when maywaether shoots the right, becausehe leaves his chin open, but once floyd gets hit once, i think he takes it away from him.
