Setting Traps.

Pbf walking hatton into that check hook. He baited him into it dropping his hands wanting him to become reckless. It was beautifully executed.

 

Nate Campbell dropping his hands against Peden. Didn't work though.

 

:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl

 

David Haye set Chisora up with a vicious left hand moving laterally with his back to the ropes

 

jab then throw hook of the jab step back throw power right hand

 

Fury set a good one up against Cunningham by luring him onto the front foot then pinning him against the ropes by the throat with his arm to set up the finisher.

 

Yep, and his pull counter comes from setting traps too. Sometimes you can see it coming when he sorts of tilts his body to the side and his right shoulder leans forward for a moment. He leaves his left hand low more often against shorter, orthodox fighters, trying to bait them to throw and the counter.

 

in the middle of a fight i sometimes Pull up my highguard and instinctively they throw a jab trying to go up the middle, immediately catch and send my own back, works alot of the time (def cant use it on alot of guys now as they learnt)

 

Marquez setting Pac into that straight right after waiting for the double feint.

 

wlad against pulev.

jab jab jab, hook of a fake jab.. He tried it a few times and it actually worked quite well. A good tactic, as his opponents are looking to avoid the jab. Iirc it was also a fake jab and left hook, that dropped pulev.

Another one - although it only worked once - mosley against floyd. Jabbing to the body, setting up a peach of a right cross.

Also maidana had an excellent one against may too, fake jab, expecting floyd to throw his straight right as a counter, and finished with his own straight right. Beautiful trap.

Mayweather against hatton, was really impressive as well. What a chech hook!

Watching guys like ward, rigo and mayweather, doing their thing is really imressive and they are the best "trappers" defensively speaking imo.

The best one while attacking must be khan, everybody knows that this man is an intellectual and has the ring iq to set up his combos

 

Ali's whole gameplan from the 2nd round on against Foreman was basically a trap. Go against the ropes, let Foreman throw and leave himself open to the head, and also let Foreman tire himself out. Ali needed to take some vicious body shots to do it, but Foreman was paying for it right away by taking clean shots to his grill.

James Toney always set traps by appearing to leave his left side of his face open. His opponent would throw, usually a right hand from an orthodox fighter, Toney would slip it, and then counter with a right.

 

Ray Robinson set up his famous knockout of Gene Fullmer with those bodyshots.

At 1:10, Hopkins knew when he came on the inside that Tarver was waiting for him with an uppercut. He wanted Tarver to react this way and once he was trapped, Hopkins countered him with a straight. Very smart!

 

that was beautiful
