Actually the Knock down was the result of Manny stepping on his foot and turning quickly, he wasn't hurt IMO
Yup, part of the gameplan. With great results. Even Rj said you gotta take some to give some at some point.
No, But Juan was waiting for the opportunity to expose Manny's lapse in concentration. And we'll, We seen the results.
I wasn't kidding, GT. JMM wouldn't be the first fighter to take shots to entice his opponent to recklessly rush in.
He wasn't trying to take shots, he was playing the defensive counter puncher as in the first 3 fights, but he was getting caught more this time. Pac came out a lot more aggressive then the 3rd fight and he was looking really sharp until the KO.
Juan had to take more risk to score clean like that, meaning he had to sit in the eye of the storm, knowing that getting hit is going to be there. He wanted to win and leave no doubt, he said he has to find a grain of salt to make the difference, boy what a grain.
Easy, Juan is smarter than Manny and was able to adjust. Team PAC has only made one adjustment from 1-4 (the right hook in fight 2). The feint that Jones was so high on during the 4th fight was already in JMM's bag. Manny's entire in/out style has been timed by Juan.
How did that even answer my question. :huh How was JMM's gameplan in the 4th fight any different then the first 3? He did the same exact thing. The difference is the shots he hit Manny with this time hurt him a lot more.
