    I would really like to watch some fighters of my size who I could study.
    I'm not a fan of boxing thus my lack of knowledge. I'm about Pacquiao size and weight. My coach has told me my strength in stand up are counter punching and keeping distance. I'm not very athletic either. So I don't think I could pull of a Pacquiao E. Honda 9 hand slap.

    I'm not really trying to emulate, but study some fights and try to see how the boxer is keeping distance and angling to counter. Stuff like that. Thanks for any information and sorry if in wrong section.

    I don't understand this

    why would you tell someone who's new to boxing to emulate a guy who would often be drawn into wars and not follow his gameplan?:huh

    How much you weigh?

    I'm around the same height as you and like to watch Bradley because we got almost the same attributes
